حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " الْبُزَاقُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ خَطِيئَةٌ وَكَفَّارَتُهَا دَفْنُهَا " .
Translation
Musaddad narrated to us: Abu ʿAwanah narrated to us, from Qatadah, from Anas ibn Malik, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Spitting in the mosque is a sin, and its expiation is burying it.’
