أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ وَإِسْحَقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا صَلَّی أَحَدُکُمْ إِلَی سُتْرَةٍ فَلْيَدْنُ مِنْهَا لَا يَقْطَعَ الشَّيْطَانُ عَلَيْهِ صَلَاتَهُ

It was narrated that Sahl bin Abi Hathmah said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: ‘When any one of you prays toward a Sutrah, let him get close to it and not allow the Saitan to sever his prayer for him.”(Sahih).
