[Machine] "He went out to the outskirts and there was an Abyssinian slave on the water, and then the prayer was established. It was said, 'Abu Dharr, let the slave lead the prayer.' So Abu Dharr said to him, 'Come forward; indeed, my beloved Prophet ﷺ commanded me to listen and obey, even if it was a skinny, crippled slave.'"  

أَنَّهُ خَرَجَ إِلَي الرَّبَذَةِ وَعَلَى الْمَاءِ عَبْدٌ حَبَشِيٌّ فَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَقِيلَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ فَنَكَصَ الْعَبْدُ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو ذَرٍّ تَقَدَّمْ؛ إِنَّ خَلِيلِي ﷺ أَوْصَانِي أَنْ أَسْمَعَ وَأُطِيعَ وَإِنْ كَانَ عَبْدًا مُجَدَّعَ الْأَطْرَافِ  

[Machine] I celebrated Eid with Umar ibn al-Khattab, then I celebrated Eid with Uthman ibn Affan, then I celebrated Eid with Ali ibn Abi Talib, and Uthman is besieged.  

شَهِدْتُ الْعِيدَ مَعَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ ثُمَّ شَهِدْتُ الْعِيدَ مَعَ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ ؓ ثُمَّ شَهِدْتُ الْعِيدَ مَعَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ وَعُثْمَانُ مَحْصُورٌ  

[Machine] O Commander of the Faithful, I feel uncomfortable praying with these people while you are restricted and you are the Imam. How do you see praying with them? Uthman replied: Prayer is the best of what people do. So, if they do good, do good with them, and if they do evil, avoid their evil. And the other narrations regarding this meaning have already passed in the matter of leadership.  

يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنِّي أَتَحَرَّجُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ مَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ وَأَنْتَ مَحْصُورٌ وَأَنْتَ الْإِمَامُ فَكَيْفَ تَرَى فِي الصَّلَاةِ مَعَهُمْ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُثْمَانُ ؓ إِنَّ الصَّلَاةَ أَحْسَنُ مَا يَعْمَلُ النَّاسُ فَإِذَا أَحْسَنُوا فَأَحْسِنْ مَعَهُمْ وَإِذَا أَسَاؤُوا فَاجْتَنِبْ إِسَاءَتَهُمْ وَسَائِرُ الْآثَارِ فِي هَذَا الْمَعْنَى قَدْ مَضَتْ فِي بَابِ الْإِمَامَةِ  

[Machine] Uqbah ibn Amir, may Allah be pleased with him, said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , saying, "Certainly, there will be men who will recite the Qur'an but it will not pass beyond their throats. They will come out of the religion just as an arrow passes through its game." Ibn Abi Hudhaifah heard it and said, "By Allah, if you are truthful and indeed you are a liar, then you are one of them." Abdullah, meaning Ibn Al-Mubarak, delivered this hadith stating that they would attribute this saying to them (meaning to the reciters of the Qur'an who do not act upon it).  

عُقْبَةُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ صَدَقَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَيَقْرَأَنَّ الْقُرْآنَ رِجَالٌ لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الدِّينِ كَمَا يَمْرُقُ السَّهْمُ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ فَسَمِعَهَا ابْنُ أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ فَقَالَ وَاللهِ لَئِنْ كُنْتَ صَادِقًا وَإِنَّكَ مَا عَلِمْتُ لَكَذُوبٌ إِنَّكَ مِنْهُمْ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْمُبَارَكِ حَمَلَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ أَنَّهُمْ يَجْمَعُونَ مَعَهُمْ وَيَقُولُونَ لَهُمْ هَذِهِ الْمَقَالَةَ
