Sunan an-Nasa'i 1195

Suwayd ibn Nasr reported to us; he said: ‘Abd Allah ibn al-Mubarak informed us, from Yunus, from al-Zuhri, who said: I heard Abu al-Ahwas telling us in a gathering of Sa‘id ibn al-Musayyab, with Ibn al-Musayyab seated there, that he had heard Abu Dharr say: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, continues to turn toward His servant while he is praying, so long as he does not turn away. When he turns his face away, He turns away from him.”
