"اسْمَعْ وَاطِعْ، وَلَوْ لَعْبدٍ مُجَدَّعِ الأَطرَاف، وَإِذَا صَنَعْتَ مرَقَةً فَأكْثِرْهَا ثُمَّ انْظُرْ أهْلَ بيتٍ مِنْ جِيرانِك فَأَصبْهُم مِنْه بَمْعروفٍ وصلِّ الصَّلاةَ لِوَقْتِهَا، فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَ الإِمَامَ قَدْ صلّى فَقَدْ أحْرَزْتَ صَلاتَكَ وإلَّا فهي نافلة".

[Machine] When Abu Dharr arrived at Uthman from Sham, he said, "My beloved (referring to the Prophet ﷺ) commanded me with three things: listen and obey, even if it is from a maimed slave, and when you make a soup, increase its water, then see the people from your neighborhood, and give them some of it with kindness, and pray the prayer in its prescribed time. If you find the Imam has already prayed, then you have safeguarded your prayer, and if not, then it is considered voluntary."  

أحمد:٢١٥٠١حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ قَالَ

لَمَّا قَدِمَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ عَلَى عُثْمَانَ مِنَ الشَّامِ فَقَالَ أَمَرَنِي خَلِيلِي ﷺ بِثَلَاثٍ اسْمَعْ وَأَطِعْ وَلَوْ عَبْدًا مُجَدَّعَ الْأَطْرَافِ وَإِذَا صَنَعْتَ مَرَقَةً فَأَكْثِرْ مَاءَهَا ثُمَّ انْظُرْ أَهْلَ بَيْتٍ مِنْ جِيرَتِكَ فَأَصِبْهُمْ مِنْهَا بِمَعْرُوفٍ وَصَلِّ الصَّلَاةَ لِوَقْتِهَا فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَ الْإِمَامَ قَدْ صَلَّى فَقَدْ أَحْرَزْتَ صَلَاتَكَ وَإِلَّا فَهِيَ نَافِلَةٌ

[Machine] My close friend ﷺ advised me with three things: Listen and obey, even if it is by a slave whose limbs have been cut off. And when you make a soup, add more water to it, then give it to the neighbors from your household, treating them well. Pray your prayers in their designated times. And if you find the Imam has already prayed, then you have accomplished your prayer. Otherwise, it is a voluntary prayer.  

أحمد:٢١٤٢٨حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَحَجَّاجٌ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ

أَوْصَانِي خَلِيلِي ﷺ بِثَلَاثَةٍ اسْمَعْ وَأَطِعْ وَلَوْ لِعَبْدٍ مُجَدَّعِ الْأَطْرَافِ وَإِذَا صَنَعْتَ مَرَقَةً فَأَكْثِرْ مَاءَهَا ثُمَّ انْظُرْ أَهْلَ بَيْتٍ مِنْ جِيرَانِكَ فَأَصِبْهُمْ مِنْهُ بِمَعْرُوفٍ وَصَلِّ الصَّلَاةَ لِوَقْتِهَا وَإِذَا وَجَدْتَ الْإِمَامَ قَدْ صَلَّى فَقَدْ أَحْرَزْتَ صَلَاتَكَ وَإِلَّا فَهِيَ نَافِلَةٌ  

ذِكْرُ لَفْظَةٍ قَدْ تُوهِمُ غَيْرَ الْمُتَبَحِّرِ فِي صِنَاعَةِ الْعِلْمِ أَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ بِلَا نِيَّةٍ جَائِزَةٌ

[Machine] "Listen and obey, even if the limbs are trembling, and when you make a soup, increase its water, then look at the people of your neighbor's household and share it with them, offer the prayer on time, for if you find that the Imam has already prayed, then you have safeguarded your prayer; otherwise, it will be voluntary."  

ابن حبّان:١٧١٨أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَبَّانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ أَوْصَانِي خَلِيلِي بِثَلَاثٍ

«اسْمَعْ وَأَطِعْ وَلَوْ لِعَبْدٍ مُجَدَّعِ الْأَطْرَافِ وَإِذَا صَنَعْتَ مَرَقَةً فَأَكْثِرْ مَاءَهَا ثُمَّ انْظُرْ إِلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتٍ مِنْ جِيرَانَكَ فَأَصِبْهُمْ مِنْهُ بِمَعْرُوفٍ وَصَلِّ الصَّلَاةَ لِوَقْتِهَا فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَ الْإِمَامَ قَدْ صَلَّى فَقَدْ أَحْرَزْتَ صَلَاتَكَ وَإِلَّا فَهِيَ نَافِلَةٌ»
