Sahih al-Bukhari 531 (Book 9, Hadith 10) #513
Spitting Etiquette During Prayer

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) taught us to not spit in the direction of our Qibla, nor to our right, but rather to our left or under our feet.

Narrated Anas: The Prophet said, "Whenever anyone of you offers his prayer he is speaking in private to his Lord. So he should not spit to his right but under his left foot". Qatada said, "He should not spit in front of him but to his left or under his feet". And Shu'ba said, "He should not spit in front of him, nor to his right but to his left or under his foot". Anas said: The Prophet said, "He should neither spit in the direction of his Qibla nor to his right but to his left or under his foot".
حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ‏"‏ إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ إِذَا صَلَّى يُنَاجِي رَبَّهُ فَلاَ يَتْفِلَنَّ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، وَلَكِنْ تَحْتَ قَدَمِهِ الْيُسْرَى ‏"‏‏.‏ وَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ لاَ يَتْفِلُ قُدَّامَهُ أَوْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، وَلَكِنْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ أَوْ تَحْتَ قَدَمَيْهِ‏.‏ وَقَالَ شُعْبَةُ لاَ يَبْزُقُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَلاَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، وَلَكِنْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ أَوْ تَحْتَ قَدَمِهِ‏.‏ وَقَالَ حُمَيْدٌ عَنْ أَنَسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ‏"‏ لاَ يَبْزُقْ فِي الْقِبْلَةِ وَلاَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، وَلَكِنْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ أَوْ تَحْتَ قَدَمِهِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Spit on your left side or under your feet while praying .

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us that when we are praying, we should be mindful of how and where we spit. We should not spit in the direction of the Qibla, which is the direction Muslims face when they pray. Instead, we should either spit on our left side or under our feet. This teaches us that even during prayer, it is important for us to be respectful and mindful of others around us and take care of cleanliness. It also reminds us that prayer is a special time between ourselves and Allah SWT; therefore it is important for us to maintain a sense of reverence during this time.
