386. Ka'b bin 'Ujrah narrated that Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said: "When one of you performs Wudū' and does so well, then he leaves intending to go to the Masjid, then let him not intertwine his fingers, for indeed he is in Ṣalāt." (Hasan) Abū 'Eisā said: The Ḥadīth of Ka'b bin 'Ujrah has been reported by more than one from Ibn 'Ajlān in a manner that is similar to the narration of Al-Laith. (a narrator in the chain of this Ḥadīth) Sharik narrated it from Muḥammad bin 'Ajlān, from his father, from Abū Hurairah, from the Prophet ﷺ, and it is similar to this Ḥadīth. But the narration of Sharik is not preserved.

Arabic text

٣٨٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ ، عَنْ ‌سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌رَجُلٍ ، عَنْ ‌كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَأَحْسَنَ وُضُوءَهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ عَامِدًا إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَلَا يُشَبِّكَنَّ» بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِهِ، فَإِنَّهُ فِي صَلَاةٍ. حَدِيثُ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ رَوَاهُ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ اللَّيْثِ. وَرَوَى شَرِيكٌ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَجْلَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَحْوَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ. وَحَدِيثُ شَرِيكٍ غَيْرُ مَحْفُوظٍ.

Commentary

The attention and presence of heart in prayer is necessary; intertwining fingers needlessly is vain and silly, therefore it is prohibited during prayer.
