Riyad as-Salihin 1693 (Book 17, Hadith 183) #38182
The Sin of Spitting in the Mosque

SUMMARY: Spitting in the mosque is a sin and must be buried in earth to expiate it.

Anas bin Malik (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah said, "Spitting in the mosque is a sin, and its expiation is that the spittle should be buried in earth". Al-Bukhari and Muslim.
عن أنس رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله ‏:‏ ‏ "‏البصاق في المسجد خطيئة، وكفارتها دفنها‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏ والمرادُ بِدَفْنِهَا إذَا كَانَ المَسْجِدُ تُرَابًا أوْ رَمْلًا ونَحْوَهُ فَيُوَارِيهَا تَحْتَ تُرَابِهِ. قالَ أبُو المحاسِنِ الرُّويَانِي مِنْ أصحابِنا في كِتَابِهِ (البحر) وقِيلَ: المُرَادُ بِدَفْنِهَا إخْراجُهَا مِنَ المَسْجِدِ، أمَّا إِذَا كَانَ المَسْجِدُ مُبَلَّطًا أَوْ مُجَصَّصًا، فَدَلَكَهَا عَلَيْهِ بِمَدَاسِهِ أَوْ بِغَيْرِهِ كَمَا يَفْعَلُهُ كَثيرٌ مِنَ الجُهَّالِ، فَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ بِدَفْنٍ، بَلْ زِيَادَةٌ فِي الخَطِيئَةِ وَتَكْثِيرٌ لِلقَذَرِ في المَسْجِدِ، وَعَلَى مَنْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ أنْ يَمْسَحَهُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بِثَوْبِهِ أَوْ بِيَدِهِ أَوْ غَيرِهِ أَوْ يَغْسِلَهُ.
