Hadith #65
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ أَنَّ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ حَدَّثَهُمْ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَا
لَ مَا بَالُ أَقْوَامٍ يَرْفَعُونَ أَبْصَارَهُمْ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فِي صَلَاتِهِمْ فَاشْتَدَّ قَوْلُهُ فِي ذَلِكَ حَتَّى قَالَ لَيَنْتَهُنَّ عَنْ ذَلِكَ أَوْ لَتُخْطَفَنَّ أَبْصَارُهُمْ

English Translation
Yahya ibn Sa'id narrated from Sa'id ibn Abi 'Arubah, from Qatadah, that Anas ibn Malik (رضي الله عنه) narrated to them that the Prophet ﷺ said: 'What is the matter with people who raise their eyes to the sky during their prayer?' He was so severe about that until he said: 'They must stop that, or their eyesight will be snatched away.'
