2. Book of Ṣalāh
٢۔ كِتَابُ الصَّلَاةِ
I observed prayer with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the 'Id day. He commenced with prayer before the sermon without Adhan and Iqama. He then stood up leaning on Bilal, and he commanded (them) to be on guard (against evil for the sake of) Allah, and he exhorted (them) on obedience to Him, and he preached to the people and admonished them. He then walked on till he came to the women and preached to them and admonished them, and asked them to give alms, for most of them are the fuel for Hell. A woman having a dark spot on the cheek stood up and said: Why is it so, Messenger of Allah? He said: For you grumble often and show ingratitude to your spouse. And then they began to give alms out of their ornaments such as their earrings and rings which they threw on to the cloth of Bilal. (Using translation from Muslim 885b)
«شَهِدْتُ الصَّلَاةَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي يَوْمِ عِيدٍ فَبَدَأَ بِالصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ بِغَيْرِ أَذَانٍ وَلَا إِقَامَةٍ»
“I heard Ibn ‘Abbas say: ‘I bear witness that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed before the sermon, then he delivered the sermon. And he thought that the women had not heard, so he went over to them and reminded them (of Allah) and preached to them and enjoined them to give in charity, and Bilal was spreading his hands like this, and the women started giving their earrings, rings and things.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1273)
سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ يَقُولُ أَشْهَدُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَنَّهُ بَدَأَ بِالصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ ثُمَّ خَطَبَ فَرَأَى أَنَّهُ لَمْ يُسْمِعِ النِّسَاءَ فَأَتَاهُنَّ فَذَكَّرَهُنَّ وَوَعَظَهُنَّ وَأَمَرَهُنَّ أَنْ يَتَصَدَّقْنَ» وَبِلَالٌ قَابِضٌ بِثَوْبِهِ فَجَعَلَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ تَجِيءُ بِالْخُرْصِ وَالشَّيْءِ ثُمَّ تُلْقِيهِ فِي ثَوْبِ بِلَالٍ
[Machine] "I witnessed the Prophet, peace be upon him, and Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman praying before the sermon on the day of Eid."
«شَهِدْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَأَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ يُصَلُّونَ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ فِي الْعِيدِ»
