376. Anas bin Mālik narrated that Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ said: “Indeed I hear the crying of a small boy while I am in Ṣalāt so I shorten it for fear that his mother may be tormented.” (Sahīh) [He said:] There are narrations on this topic from Abū Qatādah, Abū Sa‘eed, and Abū Hurairah. Abū ‘Eisā said: The Hadīth of Anas is a Hasan Ṣahīh Hadīth.
٣٧٦ - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ الْفَزَارِيُّ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأَسْمَعُ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ وَأَنَا فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَأُخَفِّفُ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ تُفْتَتَنَ أُمُّهُ». وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، وَأَبِي سَعِيدٍ، وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ. حَدِيثُ أَنَسٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Because of the crying of a baby the mother loses calmness, tranquility and peace and she becomes worried, even other people offering prayer are disturbed, and their attention is drawn to the crying child; therefore making the prayer brief in this condition is better.
