Hadith #93
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ شَقِيقٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ كُنَّا نَتَكَلَّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَيُسَلِّمُ بَعْضُنَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ وَيُوصِي أَحَدُنَا بِالْحَاجَةِ فَأَتَيْتُ
النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدُثَ فَلَمَّا صَلَّى قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يُحْدِثُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا شَاءَ وَإِنَّهُ قَدْ أَحْدَثَ أَنْ لَا تَكَلَّمُوا فِي الصَّلَاةِ

English Translation
It was narrated from 'Abdullah (رضي الله عنه) — via 'Abd al-Rahman, from Za'ida, from 'Asim, from Shaqiq — that 'Abdullah said: 'We used to speak to one another during the prayer, and one of us would greet another, and one would convey a request to another. Then I came to the Prophet ﷺ and greeted him while he was praying, but he did not respond to me. That seized me with alarm. When he finished his prayer, he said: Indeed Allah (عز وجل) introduces from His command what He wills, and He has now introduced [the ruling] that you shall not speak during the prayer.'
