Sahih al-Bukhari 709

Sahih al-Bukhari · Book 10: Call to Prayers (Adhaan) · Whoever cuts short As-Salat (the prayer) on hearing the cries of a child.

Narrated Anas bin Malik:

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ ، أَنَّ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ ، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنِّي لأَدْخُلُ فِي الصَّلاَةِ وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ إِطَالَتَهَا، فَأَسْمَعُ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ، فَأَتَجَوَّزُ فِي صَلاَتِي مِمَّا أَعْلَمُ مِنْ شِدَّةِ وَجْدِ أُمِّهِ مِنْ بُكَائِهِ ‏" ‏‏.‏

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When I start the prayer I intend to prolong it, but on hearing the cries of a child, I cut short the prayer because I know that the cries of the child will incite its mother's passions."
