\nNarrated Yazid bin Al `Ubaid:\n \n\nI used to accompany Salama bin Al-Akwa` and he used to pray behind the pillar which was near the \nplace where the Qur'ans were kept. I said, "O Abu Muslim! I see you always seeking to pray behind \nthis pillar." He replied, "I saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) always seeking to pray near that pillar."\n

\nحَدَّثَنَا الْمَكِّيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ آتِي مَعَ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الأَكْوَعِ فَيُصَلِّي عِنْدَ الأُسْطُوَانَةِ الَّتِي عِنْدَ الْمُصْحَفِ‏.‏ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا مُسْلِمٍ أَرَاكَ تَتَحَرَّى الصَّلاَةَ عِنْدَ هَذِهِ الأُسْطُوَانَةِ‏.‏ قَالَ فَإِنِّي رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَتَحَرَّى الصَّلاَةَ عِنْدَهَا‏.‏
