1305. It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar said: "When the Prophet ﷺ prayed on the day of 'Eid or on another occasion, a small spear was set up in front of him, and he prayed facing it, and the people were behind him." (Sahih) Nâfi' said: It is from here that the leaders have taken this practice.
1305 - حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: «كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا صَلَّى يَوْمَ عِيدٍ أَوْ غَيْرَهُ، نُصِبَتِ الْحَرْبَةُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، فَيُصَلِّي إِلَيْهَا، وَالنَّاسُ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ» ، قَالَ نَافِعٌ: فَمِنْ ثَمَّ اتَّخَذَهَا الْأُمَرَاءُ

The Sutra is not 'Eid-specific. It must be put up in front of the Imâm whenever there is prayer in the open, e. g., during a journey and the like of it.
