[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in the Dhuhr prayer, and at the back of the rows there was a man who was praying incorrectly. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished the prayer, he called out to him, saying, "O Fulan (so-and-so), do you not fear Allah? Do you not see how you pray? Indeed, you all can see things that are hidden from me that you do. By Allah, I truly see from behind me as I see in front of me."  

أحمد:٩٧٩٦حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الظُّهْرَ وَفِي مُؤَخَّرِ الصُّفُوفِ رَجُلٌ فَأَسَاءَ الصَّلَاةَ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ نَادَاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا فُلَانُ أَلَا تَتَّقِي اللهَ؟ أَلَا تَرَى كَيْفَ تُصَلِّي؟ إِنَّكُمْ تَرَوْنَ أَنَّهُ يَخْفَى عَلَيَّ شَيْءٌ مِمَّا تَصْنَعُونَ وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأَرَى مِنْ خَلْفِي كَمَا أَرَى مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيَّ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed the Dhuhr prayer with us, and when he finished, he called out to a man who was at the back of the rows and said, "O so-and-so, don't you fear Allah? Don't you pay attention to how you pray? Indeed, when any of you stands for prayer, he is conversing privately with his Lord, so let him pay attention to how he converses with Him. Surely, you all see me, but by Allah, I see what is behind my back just as I see what is in front of me."  

الحاكم:٨٦١حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حَمْشَاذَ الْعَدْلُ ثنا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ثنا عَيَّاشُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ الرَّقَّامُ ثنا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ أَخْبَرَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الظُّهْرَ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ نَادَى رَجُلًا كَانَ فِي آخِرِ الصُّفُوفِ فَقَالَ «يَا فُلَانُ أَلَا تَتَّقِي اللَّهَ؟ أَلَا تَنْظُرُ كَيْفَ تُصَلِّي؟ إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ إِذَا قَامَ يُصَلِّي إِنَّمَا يَقُومُ يُنَاجِي رَبَّهُ فَلْيَنْظُرْ كَيْفَ يُنَاجِيهِ إِنَّكُمْ تَرَوْنَ أَنِّي لَا أَرَاكُمْ إِنِّي وَاللَّهِ لَأَرَى مِنْ خَلْفِ ظَهْرِي كَمَا أَرَى مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيَّ»
