Praying Behind a Harba

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) used to pray behind a Harba planted in front of him as a Sutra.

Narrated 'Abdullah: The Prophet used to get a Harba planted in front of him (as a Sutra) and pray behind it.
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ كَانَ يُرْكَزُ لَهُ الْحَرْبَةُ فَيُصَلِّي إِلَيْهَا‏.‏

TOPICS

QUICK LESSONS:
Respect those who are engaged in worship by not disturbing them or passing through their area while they are praying.
EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to perform his prayers with the help of a harba. A harba is an object that is placed in front of the person praying as a sutra or barrier. This was done so that no one would be able to pass through and disturb the prayer. It also served as an indicator for others that someone was praying and should not be disturbed. This hadith teaches us about the importance of concentration during prayer and how we should respect those who are engaged in worship by not disturbing them or passing through their area while they are praying.
