ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُدْحِضِ تَأْوِيلَ مَنْ حَرَّفَ هَذَا الْخَبَرَ عَنْ جِهَتِهِ وَزَعَمَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ إِنَّمَا أَمَرَ هَذَا الْمُصَلِّيَ بِإِعَادَةِ الصَّلَاةِ لِشَيْءٍ عَلِمَهُ مِنْهُ مَا لَا نَعْلَمُهُ نَحْنُ

[Machine] We came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished his prayer, a man, who was alone, remained standing. The Prophet ﷺ stood by him until the man completed his prayer. Then, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "Face your prayer, for there is no prayer for an individual behind the row."  

ابن حبّان:٢٢٠٢أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدُ بْنُ مُسَرْهَدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُلَازِمُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بَدْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ شَيْبَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَكَانَ أَحَدَ الْوَفْدِ قَالَ

قَدِمْنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّيْنَا خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَاتَهُ إِذَا رَجُلٌ فَرْدٌ فَوَقَفَ عَلَيْهِ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى قَضَى الرَّجُلُ صَلَاتَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اسْتَقْبِلْ صَلَاتَكَ؛ فَإِنَّهُ لَا صَلَاةَ لِفَرْدٍ خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ»

ibnmajah:1003Abū Bakr b. Abū Shaybah > Mulāzim b. ʿAmr > ʿAbdullāh b. Badr > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. ʿAlī b. Shaybān

We set out until we came to the Prophet ﷺ. We gave him our oath of allegiance and performed prayer behind him. Then we offered another prayer behind him. He finished the prayer and saw a man on his own, praying behind the row. The Prophet of Allah ﷺ stood beside him and when he finished he said: "Repeat your prayer; there is no prayer for the one who is behind the row.”  

ابن ماجة:١٠٠٣حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا مُلاَزِمُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بَدْرٍ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ شَيْبَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ شَيْبَانَ وَكَانَ مِنَ الْوَفْدِ قَالَ

خَرَجْنَا حَتَّى قَدِمْنَا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَبَايَعْنَاهُ وَصَلَّيْنَا خَلْفَهُ ثُمَّ صَلَّيْنَا وَرَاءَهُ صَلاَةً أُخْرَى فَقَضَى الصَّلاَةَ۔ فَرَأَى رَجُلاً فَرْدًا يُصَلِّي خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ۔ قَالَ فَوَقَفَ عَلَيْهِ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِينَ انْصَرَفَ، قَالَ: «اسْتَقْبِلْ صَلاَتَكَ، لاَ صَلاَةَ لِلَّذِي خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ۔»

[Machine] He said, "I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , then he left and saw a man praying alone behind the row. The Prophet ﷺ stood there until the man finished his prayer, then he said to him, 'Face your prayer, as there is no prayer for an individual behind the row.'"  

أحمد:٢٤٠٠٩-٧٥حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ حَدَّثَنَا مُلَازِمُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بَدْرِ أَنَّ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ عَلِيَّ بْنَ شَيْبَانَ حَدَّثَهُ

أَنَّهُ قَالَ صَلَّيْتًُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَانْصَرَفَ فَرَأَى رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي فَرْدًا خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ فَوَقَفَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى انْصَرَفَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ اسْتَقْبَلْ صَلَاتَكَ فَلَا صَلَاةَ لِفَرْدٍ خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ
