[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the mosque for the prayer of the last night prayer, and lo and behold, they were scattered and separated, so he became angry with an anger that I have never seen him angry before. Then he said: "If a man were to announce to the people that there is a fire at the mountain or at the two valleys, they would all come to it, even though they have been neglecting their prayer. I have indeed considered appointing a man to lead the people in prayer, while I go to the homes of these people who tend to lag behind in this prayer and set fire to their homes with torches."  

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَسْجِدَ لِصَلَاةِالْعِشَاءِ الْآخِرَةِ فَإِذَا هُمْ عِزُونَ مُتَفَرِّقُونَ فَغَضِبَ غَضَبًا مَا رَأَيْتُهُ غَضِبَ غَضَبًا قَطُّ أَشَدَّ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا نَدَّى النَّاسَ إِلَى عَرْقٍ أَوْ مِرْمَاتَيْنِ لَأَتَوْهُ لِذَلِكَ وَهُمْ يَتَخَلَّفُونَ عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ آمُرَ رَجُلًا فَلْيُصَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ ثُمَّ أَتْبَعَ أَهْلَ هَذِهِ الدُّورِ الَّتِي يَتَخَلَّفُ أَهْلُهَا عَنْ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ فَأُضْرِمَهَا عَلَيْهِمْ بِالنِّيرَانِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ delayed the isha prayer until the night grew late. Then he went out to the mosque and found that the people were asleep, and only a few were present. He became angered, such anger that I never saw him display before. He said, "If a man invites the people to a meal of meat or two meals of barley porridge, they would answer his call, yet they remain negligent when it comes to this prayer. I had thought of asking someone to lead the people in prayer and then set fire to their houses with them inside."  

أَخَّرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الْعِشَاءِ حَتَّى تَهَوَّرَ اللَّيْلُ فَذَهَبَ ثُلُثُهُ أَوْ قَرَابَتُهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَإِذَا النَّاسُ عِزُونَ وَإِذَا هُمْ قَلِيلٌ قَالَ فَغَضِبَ غَضَبًا مَا أَعْلَمُ أَنِّي رَأَيْتُهُ غَضِبَ غَضَبًا قَطُّ أَشَدَّ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا دَعَا النَّاسَ إِلَى عَرْقٍ أَوْ مِرْمَاتَيْنِ أَتَوْهُ لِذَلِكَ وَلَمْ يَتَخَلَّفُوا وَهُمْ يَتَخَلَّفُونَ عَنْ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ آمُرَ رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ وَأَتَّتَبَّعَهَذِهِ الدُّورَ الَّتِي تَخَلَّفَ أَهْلُوهَا عَنْ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ فَأُضْرِمَهَا عَلَيْهِمْ بِالنِّيرَانِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ delayed the Isha prayer on one night until almost one-third of the night had passed or close to it. He came (to the mosque) and found the people reclining and dozing off, some even sleeping. He became angry and said, "If a man among you calls the people for prayer and leads them in prayer, it would be better. And if a man among you were to lead the people in prayer and then go to his family and find them sleeping, he should set fire to their houses with fire."  

أَخَّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الْعِشَاءِ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ حَتَّى كَادَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ أَوْ قَرِيبُهُ فَجَاءَ وَفِي النَّاسُ رُقَّودٌ وَهُمْ عِزُونَ وَهُمْ حِلَقٌ فَغَضِبَ فَقَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا ناَدَى النَّاسَ وَقَالَ عَمْرٌو نَدَبَ النَّاسَ إِلَى عَرْقٍ أَوْ مِرْمَاتَيْنِ لَأَجَابُوا إِلَيْهِ وَهُمْ يَتَخَلَّفُونَ عَنْ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ لَهَمَمْتُ أَنْ آمُرَ رَجُلًا يُصَلِّيَ بِالنَّاسِ ثُمَّ أَتَخَلَّفَ عَلَى أَهْلِ هَذِهِ الدُّورِ الَّذِينَ يَتَخَلَّفُونَ عَنْ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ فَأُضْرِمَهَا عَلَيْهِمْ بِالنِّيرَانِ
