English translation

949. Zaid bin Arqam narrated: "We used to speak to the person next to us during the prayer, (until) Allāh revealed: And stand (in prayer) to Allāh, devoutly obedient.[1] So we were commanded to remain quiet, and prohibited from speaking." (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

949 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ شُبَيْلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ، قَالَ: " كَانَ أَحَدُنَا يُكَلِّمُ الرَّجُلَ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ، فَنَزَلَتْ: {وَقُومُوا لِلَّهِ قَانِتِينَ} [البقرة: 238]، فَأُمِرْنَا بِالسُّكُوتِ، وَنُهِينَا عَنِ الْكَلَامِ "
