Sahih Muslim 507a (Book 4, Hadith 294) #8299
Avoiding Passing in Front of Prayers

SUMMARY: Passing in front of someone who is praying incurs a great responsibility and should be avoided.

Busr b Sa'id reported that Zaid b Khalid al-Juhani sent him to Abu Juhaim in order to ask him what he had heard from the Messenger of Allah with regard to the passer in front of the worshipper. Abu Juhaim reported that the Messenger of Allah said: If anyone who passes in front of a man who is praying knew the responsibility he incurs, he would stand still forty (years) rather than to pass in front of him Abu Nadr said: I do not know whether he said forty days or months or years.
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ، عَنْ بُسْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيَّ، أَرْسَلَهُ إِلَى أَبِي جُهَيْمٍ يَسْأَلُهُ مَاذَا سَمِعَ مِنْ، رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فِي الْمَارِّ بَيْنَ يَدَىِ الْمُصَلِّي قَالَ أَبُو جُهَيْمٍ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ لَوْ يَعْلَمُ الْمَارُّ بَيْنَ يَدَىِ الْمُصَلِّي مَاذَا عَلَيْهِ لَكَانَ أَنْ يَقِفَ أَرْبَعِينَ خَيْرًا لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَمُرَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو النَّضْرِ لاَ أَدْرِي قَالَ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا أَوْ شَهْرًا أَوْ سَنَةً

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the importance of avoiding passing in front of someone who is praying. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that if anyone knew the responsibility they incur when they pass in front of someone who is praying, they would stand still for forty days or months or years instead. This shows how serious this action is and how it should be avoided at all costs. It teaches us to respect those who are worshipping Allah and not disturb them while they are doing so. We must also remember that we will be held accountable for our actions and must take care to avoid any wrongdoings as much as possible.
