Translation
It wasnarrated that Umm Salamah bint Abi Umayyah, the wife of theProphet(ﷺ), said
“At the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), ifaperson stood to pray, his gaze would not go beyond his feet. WhentheMessenger of Allah (ﷺ) died, if a person stood to pray, his gazewould not go beyond the place where he put his forehead whenprostrating. Then Abu Bakr died and it was ‘Umar (the caliph). So,when any person stood to pray his gaze would not go beyond theQiblah.Then came the time of ‘Uthman bin ‘Affan, and there wasFitnah(tribulation, turmoil), and the people started to look rightandleft.”
