حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ
مَا بَالُ أَقْوَامٍ يَرْفَعُونَ أَبْصَارَهُمْ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فِي صَلَاتِهِمْ قَالَ فَاشْتَدَّ قَوْلُهُ فِي ذَلِكَ حَتَّى قَالَ لَيَنْتَهُنَّ عَنْ ذَلِكَ أَوْ لَتُخْطَفَنَّ أَبْصَارُهُمْ

English Translation
Muhammad ibn Bishr narrated to us: Sa'id ibn Abi 'Arubah narrated to us from Qatadah, from Anas ibn Malik (رضي الله عنه), from the Prophet ﷺ who said: 'What is wrong with people who raise their eyes to the sky during their prayer?' He spoke strongly about it until he said: 'They must stop doing this, or their eyesight will be snatched away.'
