[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The witnesses of 'Isha (evening) and Fajr (morning) prayers are a proof between us and the hypocrites. They cannot perform them or something similar." Al-Shafi'i said: "What the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said can be likened to someone burning down the houses of a group of people. What he said was about a group of people who neglected the 'Isha prayer out of hypocrisy, and Allah knows best."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ شُهُودُ الْعِشَاءِ وَالصُّبْحِ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَهُمَا أَوْ نَحْوَ هَذَا قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ فَيُشْبِهُ مَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ هَمِّهِ بِأَنْ يُحَرِّقَ عَلَى قَوْمٍ بُيُوتَهُمْ أَنْ يَكُونَ مَا قَالَهُ فِي قَوْمٍ تَخَلَّفُوا فِي صَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ لِنِفَاقٍ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ
