Muwatta Malik, Book 9, Hadith 44 (USC-MSA) ⓘ
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 .

Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that his father used to pray in the desert without a sutra.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ، كَانَ يُصَلِّي فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ إِلَى غَيْرِ سُتْرَةٍ .
