Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ إِذَا كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي الصَّلاَةِ فَلاَ يَرْفَعْ بَصَرَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ أَنْ يُلْتَمَعَ بَصَرُهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Suwayd ibn Nasr reported to us; he said: ‘Abd Allah informed us, from Yunus, from Ibn Shihab, from ‘Ubayd Allah ibn ‘Abd Allah, that a man among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) told him that he had heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: “When any one of you is praying, let him not raise his eyes toward the sky, lest his eyesight be snatched away.”
