وَلِلتِّرْمِذِيِّ : عَنْ أَنَسٍ ‏- وَصَحَّحَهُ ‏- { إِيَّاكَ وَالِالْتِفَاتَ فِي اَلصَّلَاةِ , فَإِنَّهُ هَلَكَةٌ , فَإِنْ كَانَ فَلَا بُدَّ فَفِي اَلتَّطَوُّعِ } 1‏‏1 ‏- ضعيف .‏ رواه الترمذي (589)‏ ، وللحديث تتمة طويلة ، ولئن نقل الحافظ هنا عن الترمذي تصحيحه ، فإن النقل عن الترمذي في ذلك مختلف باعتراف الحافظ نفسه ، وبيان ذلك "بالأصل" .‏
at-Tirmidhi has reported and graded as Sahih (authentic) the narration of Anas (RA): "Avoid looking around when you are engaged in prayer, for looking around is destruction. And if you must do it, do so in the voluntary prayers."
