Prohibition of spitting in front of oneself in prayer

He turned towards people and said: ´´How is it that one of you stands before his Rubb and spits in front of him? Would one of you like to be faced by someone who spits at his face? So when one of you spits, lt him spit on his left side under his foot. But if he does not find (space of spit) he should do like this.´´ [Qasim (one of the narrators) spat in his garment and then folded it and rubbed it.]

Prohibition of putting hands on the waist in prayer

Passing behind the Sutrah

 342. ´Aun bin Abu Juhaifah said: His father saw the Messenger of Allah sallahu alayhi wa sallam in a red leather tent (he said) and I saw Bilal taking the remaining water (with which the Prophet sallahu alayhi wa sallam had performed Wudu´). He said: I saw the people taking the utilised water impatiently and whoever got some of it rubbed it on his body, and those who could not get any, took the moisture from the others´ hands. Then I saw Bilal carrying an ´Anazah ( a stick) which he planted in the ground. The Messenger of Allah sallahu alayhi wa sallam came out tucking up his red cloak, and led the people in prayer and performed two Rak´ah (facing the Ka´bah) taking ´Anazah as a Sutrah for his prayer. I saw the people and animals passing in front of him beyond the ´Anazah.

Using a mount as Sutrah
