[Machine] A man from the Ansar approached with two young boys. The sun had set and Mu'adh was praying the Maghrib prayer. The man entered and joined him in prayer. Mu'adh intended to recite Surah Al-Baqarah or Surah An-Nisa', but he hesitated. When the man saw this, he prayed and then left. Someone informed Mu'adh that the man was upset with him. Mu'adh said, "Is it true that I was unfair to him? Is it true that I was unfair to him? Or am I a siren? A siren? A siren?" Hujjaj said, "A siren? A siren? A siren?" If you had not recited, "Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High" and "By the sun and its brightness," and prayed behind you, I would have thought that you were treating the weak or needy as combatants, due to his hesitation regarding the weak."
