[1620] 41 - (702) It was narrated from Hammâm: Anas bin Sîrîn, narrated to us, he said: "We met Anas bin Mâlik when he came from Ash-Shâm, and we met him in 'Ayn At-Tamr. I saw him offering prayers atop a donkey which was facing in that direction" - and Hammâm pointed to the left of the Qiblah. "I said to him: 'I saw you praying in a direction other than the Qiblah.' He said: 'Had I not seen the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ doing that, I would not have done it.'"
