Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said from an-Numan ibn Murra that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said,"What about drunkenness, stealing and adultery? "That was before anything had been revealed about them. They said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said, "They are excesses and in them is a punishment. And the worst of thieves is the one who steals his prayer." They said, "How does he steal his prayer, Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "He does not do ruku or sajda properly."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَا تَرَوْنَ فِي الشَّارِبِ وَالسَّارِقِ وَالزَّانِي وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُنْزَلَ فِيهِمْ قَالُوا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ هُنَّ فَوَاحِشُ وَفِيهِنَّ عُقُوبَةٌ وَأَسْوَأُ السَّرِقَةِ الَّذِي يَسْرِقُ صَلاَتَهُ قَالُوا وَكَيْفَ يَسْرِقُ صَلاَتَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ لاَ يُتِمُّ رُكُوعَهَا وَلاَ سُجُودَهَا  

[Machine] "Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'The worst of people who commit theft is the one who steals their own prayer.' They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, how does one steal their own prayer?' He replied, 'They do not complete its bowing or prostration.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ أَسْوَأَ النَّاسِ سَرِقَةً الَّذِي يَسْرِقُ صَلَاتَهُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَكَيْفَ يَسْرِقُهَا؟ قَالَ لَا يُتِمُّ رُكُوعَهَا وَلَا سُجُودَهَا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him) said, "The worst of people in stealing is the one who steals from his prayer." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, how does one steal from his prayer?" He said, "He does not complete the rukoo' (bowing) or the sujood (prostration), or he does not maintain stillness in the rukoo' and sujood."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَسْوَأُ النَّاسِ سَرِقَةً الَّذِي يَسْرِقُ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَكَيْفَ يَسْرِقُ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ؟ قَالَ لَا يُتِمُّ رُكُوعَهَا وَلَا سُجُودَهَا أَوْ قَالَ لَا يُقِيمُ صُلْبَهُ فِي الرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The worst of people in theft is the one who steals his own prayer." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, how does one steal his own prayer?" He said, "He does not complete its bowing and prostration."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَسْوَأُ النَّاسِ سَرِقَةً الَّذِي يَسْرِقُ صَلَاتَهُ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَكَيْفَ يَسْرِقُ صَلَاتَهُ؟ قَالَ «لَا يُتِمُّ رُكُوعَهَا وَلَا سُجُودَهَا»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The worst of people in terms of theft is the one who steals his own prayer." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, how does one steal their own prayer?" He said, "They do not complete its bowing and prostration." Both chains of narration are authentic and have not been reported separately.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ أَسْوَأَ النَّاسِ سَرِقَةً الَّذِي يَسْرِقُ صَلَاتَهُ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَكَيْفَ يَسْرِقُ صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ «لَا يُتِمُّ رُكُوعَهَا وَسُجُودَهَا» «كِلَا الْإِسْنَادَيْنِ صَحِيحَانِ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The worst form of theft is when a person steals his own prayer." It was asked, "How does one steal their own prayer?" He replied, "By not completing its bowing and prostration."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَسْوَأُ النَّاسِ سَرَقَةً الَّذِي يَسْرِقُ صَلَاتَهُ» قَالَ وَكَيْفَ يَسْرِقُ صَلَاتَهُ؟ قَالَ «لَا يُتِمُّ رُكُوعَهَا وَلَا سُجُودَهَا»
