حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ بْنِ سُفْيَانَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، وَحَامِدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، وَابْنُ السَّرْحِ ، قَالُوا : حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ ، يَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : "

إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى سُتْرَةٍ فَلْيَدْنُ مِنْهَا لَا يَقْطَعِ الشَّيْطَانُ عَلَيْهِ صَلَاتَهُ

" ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : رَوَاهُ وَاقِدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَهْلٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، أَوْ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَهْلٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، وَاخْتُلِفَ فِي إِسْنَادِهِ .
