[Machine] "While I was in the city, in the mosque, standing in the front row, ready to pray, a man behind me pushed me forcefully, making me lose my balance. He took my place and said, 'By Allah, I did not understand my prayer.' When he finished, I realized it was Ubay ibn Ka'b. He said, 'O young man, may Allah not cause you harm. This was a command from the Prophet ﷺ to us to give him our place, then he faced the qibla.' He said, 'Woe to the people who break their covenants three times, and by the Lord of the Kaaba, it is not upon them any anguish, but it is upon me for what they have misled.' I asked, 'Who do you mean by this?' He said, 'The rulers.'"  

الحاكم:٧٧٨ – حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عِيسَى الْجَنْزِيُّ ثنا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْقَبَّانِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْمُقَدَّمِيُّ ثنا يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ السَّدُوسِيُّ ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ التَّيْمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي مِجْلَزٍ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ عَبَّادٍ قَالَ

بَيْنَمَا أَنَا بِالْمَدِينَةِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فِي الصَّفِّ الْمُقَدَّمِ قَائِمٌ أُصَلِّي فَجَبَذَنِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ خَلْفِي جَبْذَةً فَنَحَّانِي وَقَامَ مَقَامِي قَالَ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا عَقَلْتُ صَلَاتِي فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ فَإِذَا هُوَ أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ فَقَالَ «يَا فَتَى لَا يَسُوءُكَ اللَّهُ إِنَّ هَذَا عَهْدُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِلَيْنَا أَنْ نَلِيَهُ ثُمَّ اسْتَقْبَلَ الْقِبْلَةَ» فَقَالَ هَلَكَ أَهْلُ الْعَقْدِ ثَلَاثًا وَرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «وَاللَّهِ مَا عَلَيْهِمْ آسَى وَلَكِنِّي آسَى عَلَى مَا أَضَلُّوا» قَالَ قُلْتُ مَنْ تَعْنِي بِهَذَا؟ قَالَ «الْأُمَرَاءَ»  

«هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ عَلَى شَرْطِ الْبُخَارِيِّ فَقَدِ احْتَجَّ بِيُوسُفَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ السَّدُوسِيِّ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ» على شرط البخاري

"While I was in the Masjid in the first row, a man pulled me from behind and moved me aside, and took my place. By Allah, I could not focus on my prayer, then when he left I saw that it was Ubayy bin Ka'b. He said: '0 boy, may Allah protect you from harm. This is what the Prophet instructed us to do, to stand directly behind him.' Then he (Ubayy) turned to face the Qiblah and said: 'Doomed are Ah1 Al-'Uqd, by the Lord of the Ka'bah! - three times.'Then he said: 'By Allah, I am not sad for them, but I am sad for the people whom they have misled.' I said: '0 Abu Ya'qub, what do you mean by Ah1 Al-'Uqd?' He said: 'The rulers."'
