[Machine] One day, I went out for a walk and suddenly found myself with the Prophet ﷺ , facing him. I thought that he wanted something, so I tried to keep my distance and avoid him. But he saw me and gestured towards me, so I approached him. He took my hand and we started walking together. Suddenly, we came across a man who was praying and performing a lot of bows and prostrations. The Prophet ﷺ asked me, "Do you think he is showing off?" I replied, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He then extended his hand, placed it between my palms, and brought them closer together. He lifted them towards his shoulders and then lowered them, repeating the action three times. After that, he said, "May guidance be upon you, intending to make you focus." It was narrated by Yazid Ibn Buraidah Al-Aslami, who heard it from Abu Barzah. Then Yazid later returned to Buraidah and narrated this incident to Waki' and Muhammad Ibn Bakr, who said that Buraidah Al-Aslami said this.
خَرَجْتُ يَوْمًا أَمْشِي فَإِذَا أَنَا بِالنَّبِيِّ ﷺ مُتَوَجِّهًا فَظَنَنْتُهُ يُرِيدُ حَاجَةً فَجَعَلْتُ أَخْنَسُ عَنْهُ وَأُعَارِضُهُ فَرَآنِي فَأَشَارَ إِلَيَّ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَانْطَلَقْنَا نَمْشِي جَمِيعًا فَإِذَا نَحْنُ بِرَجُلٍ يُصَلِّي يُكْثِرُ الرُّكُوعَ وَالسُّجُودَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَتُرَاهُ مُرَائِيًا فَقُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ فَأَرْسَلَ يَدِي ثُمَّ طَبَّقَ بَيْنَ كَفَّيْهِ فَجَمَعَهُمَا ثُمَّ جَعَلَ يَرْفَعُهُمَا بِحِيَالِمَنْكِبَيْهِ وَيَضَعُهُمَا وَيَقُولُ عَلَيْكُمْ هَدْيًا قَاصِدًا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ؛ فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ يُشَادَّ الدِّينَ يَغْلِبْهُ وقَالَ يَزِيدُ بِبَغْدَادَ بُرَيْدَةُ الْأَسْلَمِيُّ وَقَدْ كَانَ قَالَ عَنْ أَبِي بَرْزَةَ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى بُرَيْدَةَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ومُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ قَالَا بُرَيْدَةُ الْأَسْلَمِيُّ
