Muwatta Malik, Book 9, Hadith 374 (In-Book)

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Abdullah ibn Umar would use the animal he was riding as a sutra when he prayed.

حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، كَانَ يَسْتَتِرُ بِرَاحِلَتِهِ إِذَا صَلَّى ‏.‏
