Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Abd ar-
Rahman ibn Abi Said al-Khudri from his father that the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Do not let
anyone pass in front of you when you are praying. Repel him as much as
you can, and, if he refuses, fight him, for he is only a shaytan."
Muwatta Malik Book 9, Hadith 38

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Ubaydullah
ibn Abdullah ibn Utba said, "I visited Umar ibn al-Khattab just before
noon and found him praying a voluntary prayer. So I stood behind him,
but he pulled me nearer and put me next to him, on his right hand
side, and then Yarfa came and I moved back and we formed a row behind
him."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'n Nadr, the mawla of Umar
ibn Ubaydullah from Busr ibn Said that Zayd ibn Khalid al-Juhani sent
him to Abu Juhaym to ask him what he had heard from the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, about passing in front
of someone praying. Abu Juhaym said, "The Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'If the one who passes in
front of a man praying knew what he was bringing upon himself it would
be better for him to stop for forty than to pass in front of him.' "
