[Machine] Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, mentioned him, and likewise.

اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَهُ وَكَذَلِكَ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, "If you can, be behind the Imam, and if not, then to his right. This is how Abu Bakr and Umar were behind the Prophet ﷺ ."

قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ تَكُونَ خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ وَإِلَّا فَعَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَقَالَ هَكَذَا كَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ خَلْفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ

The Prophet ﷺ said: Have the imam in the centre and close up the gaps. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 681)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ تَوَسَّطُوا الْإِمَامَ وَسُدُّوا الْخَلَلَ

I offered the Friday prayer along with Anas ibn Malik. We were pushed to the pillars (due to the crowd of people). We, therefore, stopped forward and backward. Anas then said: We used to avoid it (setting a row between the pillars) during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 673)

قَدْ كُنَّا نَتَّقِي هَذَا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ

[Machine] "We used to be expelled, to the point that we were not allowed to stand in between the rows during prayer, during the time of the Prophet ﷺ."

كُنَّا عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ نُطْرَدُ طَرْدًا أَنْ نَقُومَ بَيْنَ السَّوَارِي فِي الصَّلَاةِ

[Machine] In its text, do not separate between the columns, and by Allah, He knows that the cylinder separates between them and the connection of the row. If it is alone or they have not passed what is between the two lines, it is not obligatory, if Allah wills, according to what we have been narrated in the established Hadith from Ibn Umar who said: I asked Bilal, "Where did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray in the Kaaba?" He said, "Between the two front pillars."

فِي مَتْنِهِ لَا تَصُفُّوا بَيْنَ الْأَسَاطِينِ وَهَذَا وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ لِأَنَّ الْأُسْطُوَانَةَ تَحُولُ بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ وَصْلِ الصَّفِّ فَإِنْ كَانَ مُنْفَرِدًا أَوْ لَمْ يُجَاوِزُوا مَا بَيْنَ السَّارِيَتَيْنِ لَمْ يُكْرَهْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ تَعَالَى لِمَا رُوِّينَا فِي الْحَدِيثِ الثَّابِتِ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ بِلَالًا أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَعْنِي فِي الْكَعْبَةِ؟ فَقَالَ بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْمُقَدَّمَيْنِ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ noticed a man praying alone behind the rows, so he commanded him to repeat the prayer like this.

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَبْصَرَ رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ وَحْدَهُ فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُعِيدَ الصَّلَاةَ هَكَذَا

"A man prayed alone behind the row s the Prophet ordered him to repeat the Salat." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 231)

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَأَى رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي خَلْفَ الصُّفُوفِ وَحْدَهُ فَأَمَرَهُ فَأَعَادَ الصَّلَاةَ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , saw a man praying alone behind the row and he ordered him to repeat the prayer. His name was Waseet ibn Ma'bad al-Asadi. And so on.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ رَأَى رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ وَحْدَهُ فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُعِيدَ وَاسْمُهُ وَابِصَةُ بْنُ مَعْبَدٍ الْأَسَدِيُّ وَكَذَلِكَ

[Machine] A man prayed alone behind the rows, and the Prophet ﷺ commanded him to repeat the prayer, and it was narrated through a weak chain of narrators from Al-Sha'bi from Wabisah.

أَنَّ رَجُلًا صَلَّى خَلْفَ الصُّفُوفِ وَحْدَهُ فَأَمَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يُعِيدَ الصَّلَاةَ وَرُوِيَ بِإِسْنَادٍ ضَعِيفٍ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ وَابِصَةَ

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw a man praying alone behind the rows, so he said, 'O worshipper who prays alone, haven't you prayed towards the row or did you drag a man (to pray) with you?' Then he told him to repeat the prayer, and Al-Sarri bin Isma'il narrated it, although he is weak. Abu Dawud narrated it in the Mawaqit."

رَأَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَجُلًا صَلَّى خَلْفَ الصُّفُوفِ وَحْدَهُ فَقَالَ أَيُّهَا الْمُصَلِّي وَحْدَهُ أَلَا وَصَلْتَ إِلَى الصَّفِّ أَوْ جَرَرْتَ إِلَيْكَ رَجُلًا فَقَامَ مَعَكَ أَعِدِ الصَّلَاةَ تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ السَّرِيُّ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ وَرَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ فِي الْمَرَاسِيلِ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "If a person comes and does not find anyone, let him join a group and stand with them. How great is the reward of the one who stands with them." Muhammad ibn Muhammad informed us, Abu al-Hasan al-Fasawi narrated to us, Abu Ali al-Lulu'i informed us, Abu Dawud mentioned it. It has also been narrated from another perspective about the Prophet ﷺ regarding the matter of repeating (the prayer).

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنْ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَلَمْ يَجِدْ أَحَدًا فَلْيَخْتَلِجْ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلًا مِنَ الصَّفِّ فَلْيَقُمْ مَعَهُ فَمَا أَعْظَمَ أَجْرَ الْمُخْتَلَجِ أَخْبَرَنَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ أنبأ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ الْفَسَوِيُّ ثنا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ اللُّؤْلُؤِيُّ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ فَذَكَرَهُ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي الْأَمْرِ بِالْإِعَادَةِ

[Machine] From his father, Ali ibn Shayban, who was one of the delegation that visited the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from the Banu Suhaym tribe, he said, "We performed prayer with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He glanced with the corner of his eye and saw a man who did not straighten his back during the bowing and prostration. When he finished the prayer, he said, 'O people, there is no prayer for a person who does not straighten his back during the bowing and prostration.' I also prayed with the Prophet ﷺ on another day. When he finished the prayer, there was a man behind the row praying alone. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood until he completed his prayer. When he finished, he said, 'Reperform your prayer, for there is no prayer for an individual behind the row.'"

عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ شَيْبَانَ وَكَانَ أَحَدَ الْوَفْدِ الَّذِينَ وَفَدُوا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ بَنِي سُحَيْمٍ قَالَ صَلَّيْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاةً فَلَمَحَ بِمُؤَخَّرِ عَيْنَيْهِ فَرَأَى رَجُلًا لَا يُقِيمُ صُلْبَهُ فِي الرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ قَالَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ لَا صَلَاةَ لِامْرِئٍ لَا يُقِيمُ صُلْبَهُ فِي الرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ وَصَلَّيْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَوْمًا آخَرَ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ إِذَا رَجُلٌ خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ يُصَلِّي وَحْدَهُ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ قَالَ أَعِدْ صَلَاتَكَ لَا صَلَاةَ لِفَرْدٍ خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ

[Machine] And it is as if the Prophet ﷺ negated the superiority of the group and commanded them to repeat it in order to gain a surplus for themselves, and not to return to leaving the Sunnah. And Allah knows best.

وَكَأَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ نَفَى فَضْلَ الْجَمَاعَةِ وَأَمَرَهُ بِالْإِعَادَةِ لِتَحْصُلَ لَهُ زِيَادَةٌ وَلَا يَعُودَ إِلَى تَرْكِ السُّنَّةِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ

Abu Bakrah came when the apostle of Allah ﷺ was bowing. So he bowed without the row (before joining it). He then went to the row. When the prophet ﷺ finished his prayer, he said: which of your bowed without the row, and then went to the row? Abu Bakrah said; it was i. the prophet ﷺ said: May Allah increase your eagerness ! but do not do it again. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 684)

أَنَّهُ جَاءَ وَالنَّاسُ رُكُوعٌ فَرَكَعَ دُونَ الصَّفِّ ثُمَّ مَشَى إِلَى الصَّفِّ فَلَمَّا قَضَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ أَيُّكُمُ الَّذِي رَكَعَ دُونَ الصَّفِّ ثُمَّ مَشَى إِلَى الصَّفِّ؟ قَالَ أَبُو بَكَرَةَ أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ زَادَكَ اللهُ حِرْصًا وَلَا تَعُدْ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ الْمُقْرِئِ وَفِي حَدِيثِ الرُّوذْبَارِيِّ أَنَّ أَبَا بَكَرَةَ جَاءَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَاكِعٌ وَالْبَاقِي مِثْلُهُ

[Machine] He entered the mosque and the Prophet ﷺ was bowing, so he also bowed before reaching the row. The Prophet ﷺ said, "May Allah increase your eagerness, and do not count it." Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Abdan informed us, Ahmad ibn Ubayd al-Saffar narrated to us, from Tamtam, meaning Muhammad ibn Ghaleb, from Abu Umar, from Hammam, and he mentioned it.

أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ رَاكِعٌ فَرَكَعَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَصِلَ إِلَى الصَّفِّ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ زَادَكَ اللهُ حِرْصًا وَلَا تَعُدْ أَخْبَرَنَاهُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا تَمْتَامٌ يَعْنِي مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ غَالِبٍ ثنا أَبُو عُمَرَ ثنا هَمَّامٌ فَذَكَرَهُ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ increased your eagerness, and do not tell us that Abu Ali Al-Roudbari informed us that Abu Bakr ibn Dasah narrated to us that Abu Dawood narrated to us that Humaid ibn Mas'adah reported to us that Yazid ibn Zurai narrated to them, he said: Sa'id ibn Abi Arubah narrated it.

النَّبِيُّ ﷺ زَادَكَ اللهُ حِرْصًا وَلَا تَعُدْ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ أَنَّ يَزِيدَ بْنَ زُرَيْعٍ حَدَّثَهُمْ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ فَذَكَرَهُ

[Machine] There is giving, and I have seen him doing it.

عَطَاءٌ وَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ هُوَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ

[Machine] The passage describes the narration of Abu Bakr, Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, and Ibn Abbas, where Ibn Abbas stood to the left of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and then moved behind him until he stood to his right, resembling a proof (or evidence). This is because in the position of leading the prayer, he remained alone behind him and his prayer was not corrupted.

بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ وَحَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ حَيْثُ وَقَفَ عَلَى يَسَارِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَدَارَهُ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ حَتَّى جَعَلَهُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ كَالْحُجَّةِ فِي هَذَا لِأَنَّهُ فِي حَالِ الْإِدَارَةِ بَقِيَ مُنْفَرِدًا خَلْفَهُ وَلَمْ تَفْسُدْ صَلَاتُهُ

[Machine] I prayed behind the Prophet ﷺ with me, a orphan boy, and my mother Salimah behind us.

صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَا وَيَتِيمٌ عِنْدَنَا وَأُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ خَلْفَنَا

[Machine] I was riding behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and a woman, and he made me sit on his right side while the woman was behind us.

أَمَّنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَامْرَأَةً فَجَعَلَنِي عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَالْمَرْأَةُ خَلْفَنَا

[Machine] I prayed next to the Prophet ﷺ , and Aisha was behind us praying with us. And while I was next to the Prophet ﷺ , I prayed with him. 5223 Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz and Abu Bakr Ibn Al-Hasan Al-Qadi informed us, they said: Abu Abbas informed us, he said: Al-Abbas Ibn Muhammad Al-Douri informed us, he said: Hajjaj Ibn Al-Awar mentioned it in a similar way.

ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ صَلَّيْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَعَائِشَةُ خَلْفَنَا تُصَلِّي مَعَنَا وَأَنَا إِلَى جَنْبِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أُصَلِّي مَعَهُ 5223 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي قَالَا ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ ثنا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدُّورِيُّ ثنا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ الْأَعْوَرِ فَذَكَرَهُ بِمِثْلِهِ

[Machine] The Prophet of Allah ﷺ used to pray his night prayer while I was lying between him and the Qibla, like the position of a deceased person.

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي صَلَاتَهُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ وَأَنَا مُعْتَرِضَةٌ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْقِبْلَةِ كَاعْتِرَاضِ الْجِنَازَةِ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to pray while I was his slipper and I was menstruating, and sometimes his garment would touch me when he prostrated. And he used to pray over his camel.

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي وَأَنَا حِذَاءَهُ وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ وَرُبَّمَا أَصَابَنِي ثَوْبُهُ إِذَا سَجَدَ قَالَتْ وَكَانَ يُصَلِّي عَلَى الْخُمْرَةِ

[Machine] I pushed towards the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with my abdomen while he was in a dome. Bilal came out and called for prayer, then entered and exited with a container or a bowl. When the people saw the radiance of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, they hurried towards him. Then he went in and out with a female goat, and he established the prayer. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed two raka'at for Dhuhr and two raka'at for Asr next to a female goat that a woman and a donkey passed behind.

دَفَعْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِالْأَبْطَحِ وَهُوَ فِي قُبَّةٍ فَخَرَجَ بِلَالٌ فَأَذَنَّ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ وَخَرَجَ وَمَعَهُ إِدَاوَةٌ أَوْ قِرْبَةٌ قَالَ فَلَمَّا رَأَى النَّاسُ وُضُوءَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ تَبَادَرُوهُ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ وَخَرَجَ وَمَعَهُ عَنَزَةٌ فَأَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الظُّهْرَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَالْعَصْرَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ إِلَى عَنَزَةٍ يَمُرُّ مِنْ وَرَائِهَا الْمَرْأَةُ وَالْحِمَارُ

[Machine] That you do not spoil it for him.

أَنْ لَا تُفْسِدَ عَلَيْهِ

[Machine] They asked Sahl bin Saad, "From which part of the pulpit of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did you see him? He replied, "No one among the people knows more about it than me. His acts were like the furthest part of the forest. Such and such a slave of such and such (person) was his Mawla. I indeed saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he mounted the pulpit, faced the Qibla, glorified Allah (by saying Takbir) and read the Qur'an. Then he bowed, descended and went to Qahqaha, where he prostrated. Then he ascended and recited the Qur'an, bowed again and descended to Qahqaha, where he prostrated. This tradition is found in a sound Hadith reported by Ibn Uyainah.

سَأَلُوا سَهْلَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ ؓ مِنْ أِيِّ شَيْءٍ مِنْبَرُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ مَا بَقِيَ مِنَ النَّاسِ أَحَدٌ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنِّي مِنْ أَثْلِ الْغَابَةِ عَمِلَهُ لَهُ فُلَانٌ مَوْلَى فُلَانَةَ وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ حَيْثُ صَعَدَ عَلَيْهِ اسْتَقْبَلَ الْقِبْلَةَ فَكَبَّرَ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ الْقَهْقَرَى فَسَجَدَ ثُمَّ صَعَدَ فَقَرَأَ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ الْقَهْقَرَى فَسَجَدَ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ

[Machine] By Allah, I truly know what it is, and indeed, I saw it on the first day it was born. And on the first day the Messenger of Allah sat on it, the Messenger of Allah sent it to a woman named Sahlah and asked her to have her servant, the carpenter, make some wooden sticks for me to sit on when I speak to the people. So she ordered and he made them out of the branches of the forest. Then she brought them and sent them to the Messenger of Allah, and he commanded them to be placed here. Then I saw the Messenger of Allah, may ﷺ , praying on it and saying takbeer while he was on it. Then he performed rukoo' while he was on it. Then he went down to al-Qahhara (a valley in Makkah) and prostrated at the base of the pulpit. Then he returned, and when he finished he faced the people and said, "O people, I did this so that you may follow in my footsteps and learn from my prayer."

وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأَعْرِفُ مِمَّا هُوَ وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ أَوَّلَ يَوْمٍ وُضِعَ وَأَوَّلَ يَوْمٍ جَلَسَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْسَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى فُلَانَةَ امْرَأَةٍ قَدْ سَمَّاهَا سَهْلٌ أَنْ مُرِي غُلَامَكِ النَّجَّارَ أَنْ يَعْمَلَ لِي أَعْوَادًا أَجْلِسُ عَلَيْهِنَّ إِذَا كَلَّمْتُ النَّاسَ فَأَمَرَتْهُ فَعَمِلَهَا مِنْ طَرْفَاءِ الْغَابَةِ ثُمَّ جَاءَ بِهَا فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَوُضِعَتْ هَهُنَا ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا وَكَبَّرَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ رَكَعَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ نَزَلَ الْقَهْقَرَى فَسَجَدَ فِي أَصْلِ الْمِنْبَرِ ثُمَّ عَادَ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَقَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّمَا صَنَعْتُ هَذَا لِتَأْتَمُّوا بِي وَلِتَعْلَمُوا صَلَاتِي

[Machine] That Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) once passed by people in the market and saw Abu Mas'ud in a shirt. He took hold of it and pulled it until Abu Mas'ud finished his prayer. Then he said, "Don't you know that they used to be prohibited from doing so?" or "Don't you know that it used to be prohibited?" He said, "Yes, I remember when you reminded me of it." And Ziyad ibn 'Abdullah al-Bakkai narrated it from al-A'mash in a similar meaning of the narration of Ya'la. However, Abu Mas'ud said to him, "Don't you know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade the Imam to stand above while the people stood behind him?" 5233 Abu 'Abdullah al-Hafiz reported to us, Abu Bakr ibn Ishaq reported to us, Muhammad ibn Ghaleb reported to us, Zakariya ibn Yahya reported to us, and it was mentioned and narrated from another aspect with some discrepancies in it for this narration.

أَنَّ حُذَيْفَةَ ؓ أَمَّ النَّاسَ بِالْمَدَائِنِ عَلَى دُكَّانٍ فَأَخَذَ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ بِقَمِيصِهِ فَجَبَذَهُ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ قَالَ أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يُنْهَوْنَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ أَوْ قَالَ أَوْ لَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُنْهَى عَنْ ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ بَلَى قَدْ ذَكَرْتُ حِينَ مَدَدْتَنِي وَرَوَاهُ زِيَادُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْبَكَّائِيُّ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ بِمَعْنَى رِوَايَةِ يَعْلَى إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَهُ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَى أَنْ يَقُومَ الْإِمَامُ فَوْقَ وَيَبْقَى النَّاسُ خَلْفَهُ 5233 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ غَالِبٍ ثنا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى ثنا زِيَادُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ فَذَكَرَهُ وَرُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ مُسْنَدًا مَعَ اخْتِلَافٍ فِيهِ لِهَذَا

[Machine] He said, "I do not know, has the period of your commitment become longer or have you forgotten? Have you not heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'The imam should not pray after he has stumbled in what his companions have taught him.' Thus said Salman instead of Abu Mas'ud, and it was narrated from another source with some variations in the wording."

لَهُ مَا أَدْرِي أَطَالَ بِكَ الْعَهْدُ أَمْ نَسِيتَ؟ أَمَا سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَا يُصَلِّي الْإِمَامُ عَلَى نَشَزٍ مِمَّا عَلَيْهِ أَصْحَابُهُ كَذَا قَالَ سَلْمَانُ بَدَلَ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ وَرُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ مُسْنَدًا مَعَ اخْتِلَافٍ فِيهِ لِمَا مَضَى

‘Ammar came forward and stood on a shop (or a beach) and prayed while the people stood on a lower place than he. Hudaifah came forward and took him by the hands and Ammar followed him till Hudaifah brought him down. When ‘Ammar finished his prayer. Hudaifah said to him: Did you not hear the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) say: When a man leads the people in prayer, he must not stand in a position higher than theirs, or words to that effect? ‘Ammar replied : that is why I followed you when you took me by the hand. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 598)

تَسْمَعْ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِذَا أَمَّ الرَّجُلُ الْقَوْمَ فَلَا يَقُمْ فِي مَقَامٍ أَرْفَعَ مِنْ مَقَامِهِمْ أَوْ نَحْوَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ عَمَّارٌ لِذَلِكَ اتَّبَعْتُكَ حِينَ أَخَذْتَ عَلَى يَدِيَّ

The Prophet ﷺ took a room made of date palm leaves mats in the mosque. Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed in it for a few nights till the people gathered (to pray the night prayer (Tarawih) (behind him.) Then on the 4th night the people did not hear his voice and they thought he had slept, so some of them started humming in order that he might come out. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "You continued doing what I saw you doing till I was afraid that this (Tarawih prayer) might be enjoined on you, and if it were enjoined on you, you would not continue performing it. Therefore, O people! Perform your prayers at your homes, for the best prayer of a person is what is performed at his home except the compulsory congregational) prayer." (See Hadith No. 229,Vol. 3) (See Hadith No. 134, Vol. 8) (Using translation from Bukhārī 7290)

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ اتَّخَذَ حُجْرَةً فِي الْمَسْجِدِ مِنْ حَصِيرٍ فَصَلَّى فِيهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى اجْتَمَعَ إِلَيْهِ نَاسٌ ثُمَّ فَقَدُوا صَوْتَهُ فَظَنُّوا أَنَّهُ قَدْ نَامَ فَجَعَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ يَتَنَحْنَحُ لِيَخْرُجَ إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ مَا زَالَ بِكُمُ الَّذِي رَأَيْتُ مِنْ صَنِيعِكُمْ حَتَّى خَشِيتُ أَنْ يُكْتَبَ عَلَيْكُمْ وَلَوْ كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمْ مَا قُمْتُمْ بِهِ فَصَلُّوا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ فَإِنَّ أَفْضَلَ صَلَاةِ الْمَرْءِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلَّا الصَّلَاةَ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ

O people, perform such acts as you are capable of doing, for Allah does not grow weary but you will get tired. The acts most pleasing to Allah are those which are done continuously, even if they are small. And it was the habit of the members of Muhammad's ﷺ household that whenever they did an act they did it continuously. (Using translation from Muslim 782a)

كَانَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حَصِيرٌ فَكَانَ يَحْتَجِرُهُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَيُصَلِّي فِيهِ فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يُصَلُّونَ بِصَلَاتِهِ وَيُبْسَطُ بِالنَّهَارِ فَثَابُوا ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَقَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنَ الْأَعْمَالِ مَا تُطِيقُونَ فَإِنَّ اللهَ لَا يَمَلُّ حَتَّى تَمَلُّوا فَإِنَّ أَحَبَّ الْأَعْمَالِ إِلَى اللهِ مَا دُووِِمَ عَلَيْهِ وَإِنْ قَلَّ وَكَانَ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ إِذَا عَمِلُوا عَمَلًا أَثْبَتُوهُ

The Prophet ﷺ used to construct a loom with a Hasir at night m order to pray therein, and during the day he used to spread it out and sit on it. The people started coming to the Prophet ﷺ at night to offer the prayer behind him When their number increased, the Prophet ﷺ faced them and said. O people! Do only those good deeds which you can do, for Allah does not get tired (of giving reward) till you get tired, and the best deeds to Allah are the incessant ones though they were few. (Using translation from Bukhārī 5861)

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَحْتَجِرُ حَصِيرًا بِاللَّيْلِ فَيُصَلِّي وَيَبْسُطُهُ بِالنَّهَارِ فَيَجْلِسُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَتْ فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَثُوبُونَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَيُصَلُّونَ بِصَلَاتِهِ حَتَّى كَثُرُوا فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ خُذُوا مِنَ الْأَعْمَالِ مَا تُطِيقُونَ فَإِنَّ اللهَ لَا يَمَلُّ حَتَّى تَمَلُّوا وَإِنَّ أَحَبَّ الْأَعْمَالِ إِلَى اللهِ مَا دَامَ مِنْهَا وَإِنْ قَلَّ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah would pray in his room, and the wall of his room was short. So the people saw the Messenger of Allah and some of them began to offer prayers following his prayer. This continued for two or three nights until the Messenger of Allah sat down and did not come out. When morning came, the people mentioned this and he said, "I feared that the night prayer would become obligatory for you because of the words of Abu Amr."

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يُصَلِّي فِي حُجْرَتِهِ وَجِدَارُ الْحُجْرَةِ قَصِيرٌ فَرَأَى النَّاسُ شَخَصَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَامَ نَاسٌ يُصَلُّونَ بِصَلَاتِهِ فَأَصْبَحُوا فَتَحَدَّثُوا فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي فَقَامَ نَاسٌ يُصَلُّونَ بِصَلَاتِهِ فَصَنَعُوا ذَلِكَ لَيْلَتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ جَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَمْ يَخْرُجْ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ ذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ النَّاسُ فَقَالَ إِنِّي خِفْتُ أَنْ تُكْتَبَ عَلَيْكُمْ صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ أَبِي عَمْرٍو

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ offered the prayer in his apartment and people were following him behind apartment. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1126)

صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي حُجْرَتِهِ وَالنَّاسُ يَأْتَمُّونَ بِهِ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْحُجْرَةِ يُصَلُّونَ بِصَلَاتِهِ

[Machine] The passage translates to: "That the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , used to pray during the night in his room and some of his companions came to him, so they prayed with his prayer. He calmed down and entered the house, then came out and did that repeatedly, all of that he would pray and then leave and enter. When morning came, they said, 'O Messenger of Allah, we prayed with you last night and we want you to prolong your prayer.' He said, 'I knew that you were there intentionally, so I did that.'"

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يُصَلِّي ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فِي حُجْرَتِهِ فَأَتَاهُ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَصَلُّوا بِصَلَاتِهِ فَخَفَّفَ فَدَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَفَعَلَ ذَلِكَ مِرَارًا كُلَّ ذَلِكَ يُصَلِّي ثُمَّ يَنْصَرِفُ وَيَدْخُلُ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّيْنَا مَعَكَ الْبَارِحَةَ وَنَحْنُ نُحِبُّ أَنْ تَمُدَّ فِي صَلَاتِكَ فَقَالَ قَدْ عَلِمْتُ بِمَكَانِكُمْ عَمْدًا فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ

[Machine] "To listen to them."

أَنْ نَبْعَجَهُمْ

[Machine] There is no problem with praying in the spaciousness of the mosque and the courtyard with the prayer of the imam.

لَا بَأْسَ بِالصَّلَاةِ فِي رَحَبَةِ الْمَسْجِدِ وَالْبَلَاطِ بِصَلَاةِ الْإِمَامِ

[Machine] I used to pray, Abu Huraira and I, on top of the mosque, praying the obligatory prayer with the imam.

كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي أَنَا وَأَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فَوْقَ ظَهْرِ الْمَسْجِدِ نُصَلِّي بِصَلَاةِ الْإِمَامِ لِلْمَكْتُوبَةِ

[Machine] He saw Abu Huraira praying on the back of the mosque with the prayer of the imam in the mosque.

أَنَّهُ رَأَى أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يُصَلِّي فَوْقَ ظَهْرِ الْمَسْجِدِ بِصَلَاةِ الْإِمَامِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ

[Machine] Imam Shafi'i said that women used to pray with Aisha, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, in her room. Aisha told them not to pray with the prayer of the imam because they were behind him in the veil. Imam Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, said, "And as Aisha said in her room, if she said it, we said it." Sheikh also narrated from Ali ibn Abi Talib that he said, "There is no prayer for the neighbor of the mosque except in the mosque." This was also narrated from Abu Huraira from the Prophet ﷺ, elevated.

قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ قَدْ صَلَّى نِسْوَةٌ مَعَ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي حُجْرَتِهَا فَقَالَتْ لَا تُصَلِّيَنَّ بِصَلَاةِ الْإِمَامِ؛ فَإِنَّكُنَّ دُونَهُ فِي حِجَابٍ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى وَكَمَا قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فِي حُجْرَتِهَا إِنْ كَانَتْ قَالَتْهُ قُلْنَاهُ قَالَ الشيخ وَرُوِّينَا عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَا صَلَاةَ لِجَارِ الْمَسْجِدِ إِلَّا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَرُوِيَ ذَلِكَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مَرْفُوعًا

[Machine] I saw Anas ibn Malik praying Friday prayer in the houses of Humaid ibn Abdul Rahman ibn Auf and he prayed behind the imam in the mosque and between the houses of Humaid and the mosque is the road.

رَأَيْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ صَلَّى الْجُمُعَةَ فِي بُيُوتِ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ فَصَلَّى بِصَلَاةِ الْإِمَامِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَبَيْنَ بُيُوتِ حُمَيْدٍ وَالْمَسْجِدِ الطَّرِيقُ

[Machine] I saw Anas bin Malik praying the Friday prayer in a room near the pulpit at the mosque of Basra.

رَأَيْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يُصَلِّي بِصَلَاةِ الْإِمَامِ الْجُمُعَةَ فِي غُرْفَةٍ عِنْدَ السُّدَّةِ بِمَسْجِدِ الْبَصْرَةِ

[Machine] He used to pray the Friday prayer in the houses of Humaid bin Abdul Rahman during the Hajj of Al-Walid, and there were many people between it and the mosque.

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُصَلِّي الْجُمُعَةَ فِي بُيُوتِ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَامَ حَجَّ الْوَلِيدُ وَكَثُرَ النَّاسُ بَيْنَهَا وَبَيْنَ الْمَسْجِدِ طَرِيقٌ

[Machine] "People used to enter the rooms of the Prophet's wives after the Prophet's death and they would pray Jumu'ah there. The mosque would become crowded, so they would expand it by utilizing the rooms of the Prophet's wives. However, these rooms are not considered part of the mosque, but rather the doors leading to them are within the mosque. Malik said, 'Whoever prays in any area that is connected to the mosque, whether it is within the mosque itself or in its immediate vicinity, it is sufficient and this has always been the practice of the people and no one from the scholars has objected to it.' Malik continued, 'As for a closed-off house that can only be entered with permission, it is not appropriate for anyone to pray there with the congregation on Jumu'ah, even if it is nearby, because it does not belong to the mosque.'"

أَنَّ النَّاسَ كَانُوا يَدْخُلُونَ حُجَرَ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَيُصَلُّونَ فِيهَا الْجُمُعَةَ قَالَ وَكَانَ الْمَسْجِدُ يَضِيقُ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ فَيَتَوَسَّعُونَ بِهَا وَحُجَرُ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ لَيْسَتْ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ وَلَكِنَّ أَبْوَابَهَا شَارِعَةٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ قَالَ مَالِكٌ فَمَنْ صَلَّى فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْ أَفْنِيَةِ الْمَسْجِدِ الْوَاصِلَةِ بِهِ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ أَوْ فِي رِحَابِهِ الَّتِي تَلِيهِ فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ مُجْزِئٌ عَنْهُ وَلَمْ يَزَلْ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أَمْرِ النَّاسِ لَمْ يَعِبْهُ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْفِقْهِ قَالَ مَالِكٌ فَأَمَّا دَارٌ مُغْلَقَةٌ لَا تُدْخَلُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنٍ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ فِيهَا بِصَلَاةِ الْإِمَامِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَإِنْ قَرُبَتْ لِأَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ

[Machine] Mu'adh ibn Jabal used to pray Isha' with the Prophet ﷺ and then go back to his people, the Banu Salimah, and lead them in prayer. One night, the Prophet ﷺ delayed Isha' prayer. Mu'adh prayed Isha' with him and then returned to his people. He led them in prayer again and began to recite Surah Al-Baqarah. A man behind him stepped forward and prayed alone. When he finished, the others accused him of hypocrisy, but he denied it, saying that he only wanted to inform the Prophet ﷺ . He went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, you delayed Isha' prayer last night and Mu'adh prayed it with you. Then he returned and led us in prayer. He started reciting Surah Al-Baqarah and I stepped forward and prayed alone." The Prophet ﷺ turned to Mu'adh and said, "Are you trying to confuse us, O Mu'adh? Are you trying to confuse us?" Mu'adh said, "Read Surah Sabih Ism Rabbika al-A'la, Al-Tariq, Al-Sama' Al-Burooj, Al-Shams, Al-Duha, and similar surahs." 'Amr Ibn Murra said, "Abu al-Zubair used to say that the Prophet ﷺ instructed him to read Surah Sabih Ism Rabbika al-A'la, Al-Tariq, Al-Sama' Al-Burooj, Al-Shams, Al-Duha, and similar surahs." 'Amr said, "Is it this or something like it?" Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz narrated this from Abu Bakr ibn Ishaq al-Faqih, who heard it from Bishr ibn Musa, who heard it from al-Humaydi, who heard it from Sufyan, who heard it from 'Amr ibn Dinar, who heard it from Jabir. This is the meaning of the narration.

كَانَ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ يُصَلِّي مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ الْعِشَاءَ ثُمَّ يَرْجِعَ إِلَى قَوْمِهِ بَنِي سَلِمَةَ فَيُصَلِّيهَا بِهِمْ وَأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَخَّرَ الْعِشَاءَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَصَلَّاهَا مُعَاذٌ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَأَمَّ قَوْمَهُ فَافْتَتَحَ سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ فَتَنَحَّى رَجُلٌ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ فَصَلَّى وَحْدَهُ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالُوا نَافَقْتَ يَا فُلَانُ؟ فَقَالَ مَا نَافَقْتُ وَلَكِنِّي آتِي رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأُخْبِرَهُ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّكَ أَخَّرْتَ الْعِشَاءَ الْبَارِحَةَ وَإِنَّ مُعَاذًا صَلَّاهَا مَعَكَ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَأَمَّنَا فَافْتَتَحَ سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ فَتَنَحَّيْتُ فَصَلَّيْتُ وَحْدِي وَإِنَّمَا نَحْنُ أَهْلُ نَوَاضِحَ نَعْمَلُ بِأَيْدِينَا فَالْتَفَتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى مُعَاذٍ فَقَالَ أَفَتَّانٌ أَنْتَ يَا مُعَاذُ أَفَتَّانٌ أَنْتَ؟ اقْرَأْ بِسُورَةِ كَذَا وَسُورَةِ كَذَا 5252 قَالَ عَمْرٌو وَعَدَّ سُوَرًا قَالَ سُفْيَانُ وَقَالَ أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ وَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اقْرَأْ بِسَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الْبُرُوجِ وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَاهَا وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى وَنَحْوِهَا فَقُلْتُ لِعَمْرٍو فَإِنَّ أَبَا الزُّبَيْرِ كَانَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ قَالَ لَهُ اقْرَأْ بِسَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الْبُرُوجِ وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَاهَا وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى فَقَالَ عَمْرٌو هِيَ هَذِهِ أَوْ نَحْوُ هَذِهِ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْفَقِيهُ أنبأ بِشْرُ بْنُ مُوسَى ثنا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ ثنا سُفْيَانُ ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ فَذَكَرَهُ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ زِيَادَةَ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ وَبِهَذَا الْمَعْنَى

[Machine] On the authority of Sahl ibn Sa'd al-Sa'idi, who was one of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "An incident occurred between the tribes of Aws and Khazraj, where they exchanged some harsh words. The news reached the Prophet ﷺ , so he went to them and found himself restricted. Bilal then called the Adhan (the Islamic call to prayer), and the Prophet ﷺ was still restricted. When he was restricted, he proceeded to establish the prayer. Abu Bakr went forward to lead the people in prayer, and the Prophet ﷺ came from his confinement. People made space for him until he reached the row behind Abu Bakr. The people clapped, but Abu Bakr did not turn during the prayer. When Abu Bakr heard the applause, he turned and saw the Prophet ﷺ making a gesture to him to stay where he was. Abu Bakr raised his head towards the sky and the Quraysh turned their heels. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ advanced and led the prayer with them. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished the prayer, he said to Abu Bakr, 'What prevented you from staying in your place?' Abu Bakr replied, 'Would Allah permit Ibn Abi Quhafa (referring to himself) to be standing in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'What was the matter with you when you clapped during your prayer? Clapping is for women. If something happens to one of you in your prayer, say 'Subhan Allah' (glory be to Allah)."

عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ وَهُوَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَقُولُ وَقَعَ بَيْنَ الْأَوْسِ وَالْخَزْرَجِ كَلَامٌ فَتَنَاوَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا وَأُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأُخْبِرَ فَأَتَاهُمْ فَاحْتُبِسَ فَأَذَّنَ بِلَالٌ وَاحْتُبِسَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَلَمَّا احْتُبِسَ أَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ فَتَقَدَّمَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَؤُمُّ النَّاسَ وَجَاءَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مِنْ مُحْتَبَسِهِ ذَاكَ قَالَ فَتَخَلَّلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَى الصَّفِّ الَّذِي يَلِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَصَفَّقَ النَّاسُ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ لَا يَلْتَفِتُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ التَّصْفِيقَ الْتَفَتَ فَإِذَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنِ اثْبُتْ مَكَانَكَ فَرَفَعَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رَأْسَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَنَكَصَ الْقَهْقَرَى وَتَقَدَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ فَلَمَّا قَضَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الصَّلَاةَ قَالَ مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَثْبُتَ؟ قَالَ مَا كَانَ اللهُ لِيَرَى ابْنَ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَالُكُمْ حِينَ نَابَكُمْ شَيْءٌ فِي صَلَاتِكُمْ صَفَّقْتُمْ؟ إِنَّمَا هَذَا لِلنِّسَاءِ مَنْ نَابَهُ شَيْءٌ فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَلْيَقُلْ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ

[Machine] And when he passed between the two rows, he would stand up. If he saw any flaw, he would say "Stand straight until there is no flaw in you." Then he would proceed and say the takbir. It is possible that he would recite Surah Yusuf or Surah An-Nahl or something similar in the first raka'ah until the people gathered. He would say, "It is just that I made the takbir." I heard him say, "The dog has killed me or the dog has eaten me when he was stabbed." Then the fever flew off with a double-edged dagger that did not pass by anyone on the right or left except that it stabbed him until it stabbed thirteen men and nine of them died. When a Muslim man saw that, he threw him a cloak. When the fever thought that he had been caught, he stabbed himself and said, "Umar handle this." So Umar came forward and said, "Who will succeed Umar?" He had seen what he had seen. As for the vicinity of the mosque, they did not know anything except that they had lost the voice of Umar when they were saying, "Subhan Allah, Subhan Allah." So Abdullah bin Awf led them in a light prayer and mentioned the hadith.

وَكَانَ إِذَا مَرَّ بَيْنَ الصَّفَّيْنِ قَامَ فَإِنْ رَأَى خَلَلًا قَالَ اسْتَوُوا حَتَّى إِذَا لَمْ يَرَ فِيهِمْ خَلَلًا تَقَدَّمَ فَكَبَّرَ قَالَ وَرُبَّمَا قَرَأَ بِسُورَةِ يُوسُفَ أَوِ النَّحْلِ أَوْ نَحْوَ ذَلِكَ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى حَتَّى يَجْتَمِعَ النَّاسُ قَالَ فَمَا هُوَ إِلَّا أَنْ كَبَّرَ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ قَتَلَنِي الْكَلْبُ أَوْ أَكَلَنِي الْكَلْبُ حِينَ طَعَنَهُ فَطَارَ الْعِلْجُ بِالسِّكِّينِ ذَاتِ طَرَفَيْنِ لَا يَمُرُّ عَلَى أَحَدٍ يَمِينًا وَلَا شِمَالًا إِلَّا طَعَنَهُ حَتَّى طَعَنَ ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا فَمَاتَ مِنْهُمْ تِسْعَةٌ فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ طَرَحَ عَلَيْهِ بُرْنُسًا فَلَمَّا ظَنَّ الْعِلْجُ أَنَّهُ مَأْخُوذٌ نَحَرَ نَفْسَهُ قَالَ وَتَنَاوَلَ عُمَرُ يَدَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ فَقَدَّمَهُ قَالَ فَمَنْ يَلِي عُمَرَ ؓ فَقَدْ رَأَى الَّذِي رَأَى وَأَمَّا نَوَاحِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَا يَدْرُونَ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ فَقَدُوا صَوْتَ عُمَرَ ؓ وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ قَالَ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ صَلَاةً خَفِيفَةً فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثُ

[Machine] "So I saw Umar stretching out his hand and saying, 'Catch the dog, for it has killed me.' Then a man came from behind him and grabbed him. Umar was carried to his house, and a doctor came to him and said, 'Which drink do you prefer?' He said, 'Nabidh (a non-alcoholic beverage made from dates).' So he was given Nabidh to drink, and one of his wounds discharged pus. He said, 'This is the pus of blood.' Then he was given milk to drink, and he said, 'Wash, O Amir al-Mu'minin (Commander of the Believers), with what you were advised.' By Allah, I do not see you dying except as a martyr!' And K'ab came to him and said, 'Did I not tell you that you will not die except as a martyr, while you were asking me where I am and I am in the Arabian Peninsula?' So a man said, 'Perform the prayer, O servants of Allah. The sun is about to rise.' They rushed until they brought 'Abdul Rahman ibn 'Awf forward, and he recited the shortest two Surahs in the Quran, 'Al-Asr' and 'Inna Ataina Ka Al-Kawthar' (indeed, We have granted you, [O Muhammad], al-Kawthar). This is what Abu Ishaq said, and this is also."
