Ahmad Shakir
Its isnad is sahih. It has occurred previously at 
and will come again at 
. It is found in Muslim 1/321, no. 429, in the Book of Prayer, chapter on the prohibition of raising the eyes to the sky, with wording close to this, and something similar to it was narrated by Bukhari 1/191, same book and chapter, with the wording, "What is the matter with people who raise their eyes," and by Ibn Majah 1045, and Tabarani in Al-Kabir 2/220, no. 1817.
