AHMAD 7129:
from Abū Hurayrah —
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The obligatory prayer is an expiation for what is between it and the next prayer. And the Friday prayer is an expiation for what is between it and the next Friday prayer. And the month (of fasting) is an expiation for what is between it and the next Ramadan." He said, "Then he said after that, except for three (situations)." He said, "So I knew that this was a matter that has occurred except for associating partners with Allah, breaking a contract, and abandoning the Sunnah." He said, "As for breaking a contract, it is when you pledge allegiance to a man and then you violate it and fight against him with your sword. And as for abandoning the Sunnah, I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, we are familiar with associating partners with Allah, but what is breaking a contract?' He said, 'It is when you pledge allegiance to a man and then you violate it and fight against him with your sword. And as for abandoning the Sunnah, it is leaving the congregation.'"

عن ابو هريره —
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الصَّلَاةُ الْمَكْتُوبَةُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ الَّتِي بَعْدَهَا كَفَّارَةٌ لِمَا بَيْنَهُمَا قَالَ وَالْجُمُعَةُ إِلَى الْجُمُعَةِ وَالشَّهْرُ إِلَى الشَّهْرِ يَعْنِي رَمَضَانَ إِلَى رَمَضَانَ كَفَّارَةٌ لِمَا بَيْنَهُمَا قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ إِلَّا مِنْ ثَلَاثٍ قَالَ فَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ لِأَمْرٍ حَدَثَ إِلَّا مِنَ الْإِشْرَاكِ بِاللهِ وَنَكْثِ الصَّفْقَةِ وَتَرْكِ السُّنَّةِ قَالَ أَمَّا نَكْثُ الصَّفْقَةِ أَنْ تُبَايِعَ رَجُلًا ثُمَّ تُخَالِفَ إِلَيْهِ تُقَاتِلُهُ بِسَيْفِكَ وَأَمَّا تَرْكُ السُّنَّةِ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَمَّا الْإِشْرَاكُ بِاللهِ فَقَدْ عَرَفْنَاهُ فَمَا نَكْثُ الصَّفْقَةِ؟ قَالَ فَأَنْ تُبَايِعَ رَجُلًا ثُمَّ تُخَالِفَ إِلَيْهِ تُقَاتِلَهُ بِسَيْفِكَ وَأَمَّا تَرْكُ السُّنَّةِ فَالْخُرُوجُ مِنَ الْجَمَاعَةِ
