    (قلت: إسناده ضعيف، وله علتان: جهالة أبي عمرو بن محمد بن حريث وجده حُريْث. والاضطراب في إسناده اضطراباً شديداً. ولذلك قال الدارقطني: " لا يصح ولا يثبت ". وقال أحمد: " ضعيف ". وقال النووي: " لم يثبت، قال البغوي وغيره: هو حديث ضعيف، وأشار إلى تضعيفه سفيان ابن عيينة والشافعي والبيهقي وغيرهم ". وضعفه أيضاً ابن الصلاح والعراقي. ومن وجوه اضطرابه الرواية الآتية)

689. It was reported from Abū 'Amr bin Muḥammad bin Huraith, that he heard his grandfather Huraith narrating from Abū Hurairah that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "When one of you prays, let him place something in front of him. If he does not find anything, let him take a stick and make it stand (in front of him). If he does not even have a stick, let him draw a line, then anything that passes in front of him will not affect him." (Da'if)

Arabic text

689 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ الْمُفَضَّلِ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حُرَيْثٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَدَّهُ حُرَيْثًا يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَجْعَلْ تِلْقَاءَ وَجْهِهِ شَيْئًا، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ فَلْيَنْصِبْ عَصًا، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَهُ عَصًا فَلْيَخْطُطْ خَطًّا، ثُمَّ لَا يَضُرُّهُ مَا مَرَّ أَمَامَهُ»،
