النسائي:٨٧١ – أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ زُرَيْعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ عَنْ زِيَادٍ الأَعْلَمِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرَةَ حَدَّثَهُ

أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ رَاكِعٌ فَرَكَعَ دُونَ الصَّفِّ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ زَادَكَ اللَّهُ حِرْصًا وَلاَ تَعُدْ

Abu Bakrah said that he came to the mosque when the prophet ﷺ was bowing. So I bowed outside the row (before joining it). The prophet ﷺ said; May Allah increase your eagerness! But do not do it again.

أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ وَنَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَاكِعٌ قَالَ فَرَكَعْتُ دُونَ الصَّفِّ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ زَادَكَ اللَّهُ حِرْصًا وَلاَ تَعُدْ

Abu Bakrah said that he came to the mosque when the prophet ﷺ was bowing. So I bowed outside the row (before joining it). The prophet ﷺ said; May Allah increase your eagerness! But do not do it again. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 683)   

أحمد:٢٠٤٥٨ – حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ أَخْبَرَنَا زِيَادٌ الْأَعْلَمُ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكَرَةَ

أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ رَاكِعٌ فَرَكَعَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَصِلَ إِلَى الصَّفِّ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ زَادَكَ اللهُ حِرْصًا وَلَا تَعُدْ  

ahmad:20470 – ʿAbd al-Razzāq > Maʿmar > Qatādah > al-Ḥasan

[Machine] Abu Bakrah entered the mosque and the Imam was bowing. Abu Bakrah also bowed before reaching the row. The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "May Allah increase your eagerness, but do not count (the rows)."  

أحمد:٢٠٤٧٠ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ

أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرَةَ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ وَالْإِمَامُ رَاكِعٌ فَرَكَعَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَصِلَ إِلَى الصَّفِّ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ زَادَكَ اللهُ حِرْصًا وَلَا تَعُدْ  

ذِكْرُ الرُّخْصَةِ لِلدَّاخِلِ الْمَسْجِدَ وَالْإِمَامُ رَاكِعٌ أَنْ يَبْتَدِئَ صَلَاتَهُ مُنْفَرِدًا ثُمَّ يَلْحَقَ بِالصَّفِّ عِنْدَ الرُّكُوعِ فَيَتَّصِلَ بِهِ

[Machine] Abu Bakr entered the mosque and found the Prophet ﷺ in the state of Rukoo' (bowing in prayer). Abu Bakr also performed Rukoo' and then proceeded to join the prayer row. The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "May Allah increase your eagerness, but don't repeat this."  

ابن حبّان:٢١٩٤ – أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْأَحْمَرِ الصَّيْرَفِيُّ بِالْبَصْرَةِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ النَّرْسِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ عَنْ عَنبَسَةَ الْأَعْوَرِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ

أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرَةَ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ رَاكِعٌ فَرَكَعَ ثُمَّ مَشَى حَتَّى لَحِقَ بِالصَّفِّ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «زَادَكَ اللَّهُ حِرْصًا وَلَا تَعُدْ»  

ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُدْحِضِ قَوْلَ مَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّ هَذَا الْخَبَرَ تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ عَنبَسَةُ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ
