SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 6 > BOOK 60: PROPHETIC COMMENTARY ON THE QUR’AN (TAFSEER OF THE PROPHET (PBUH))
We used to speak while in prayer. One of us used to speak to his brother (while in prayer) about
his need, till the Verse was revealed:–
“Guard strictly the (five obligatory) prayers, especially the middle (the Best) (Asr) Prayer and stand
before Allah with obedience (and not to speak to others during the prayers).” Then we were ordered
not to speak in the prayers.
