471. It was narrated that Al-Hakam bin ‘Utaibah said: “I heard Abū Juhaifah say: ‘The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ set off at midday, during the time of intense heat’ - (One of the narrators) Ibn Al-Muthanna said, to Al-Baṭḥā’ - and he performed Wuḍū’, and prayed Zuhr, two Rak’ahs, and ‘Aṣr, two Rak’ahs, with a short spear (Anzah) in front of him. (Ṣaḥīḥ)

470 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ عُتَيْبَةَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جُحَيْفَةَ قَالَ: «خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْهَاجِرَةِ - قَالَ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى إِلَى الْبَطْحَاءِ - فَتَوَضَّأَ وَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَالْعَصْرَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ عَنَزَةٌ»

Commentary

In front of him, a spear (a small spear: said to be of the measure of half a lance) was placed in the ground for a barrier (Sutrah). The one performing prayer should use such a barrier (Sutrah) at all times except when he prays behind an Imām, in which case the Imām’s Sutrah is his Sutrah.
