Arabic text

723 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْبُصَاقُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ خَطِيئَةٌ وَكَفَّارَتُهَا دَفْنُهَا»

Commentary

Spittle causes filthiness; it is therefore prohibited to spit inside the mosque. If the floor is made of concrete, it is superior to spit into cloth. It should then be rubbed so that the garment does not appear offensive.
