"While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sitting with us around him, a man came in, turned towards the Qiblah and prayed. When he had finished his prayer, he came and greeted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the people with Salam. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: 'And also to you. Go and pray, for you have not prayed.' So he went and prayed, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ started watching him, and he (the man) did not know what was wrong with it. When he had finished the prayer, he came and greeted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the people with salam. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: 'And also to you. Go and pray, for you have not prayed.' He repeated it two or three times, then the man said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what is wrong with my prayer?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'The prayer of any of you is not complete unless he performs wudu properly as enjoined by Allah, the Mighty and Sublime. So he should wash his face, his arms up to the elbows, and wipe his head, and (wash) his feet up to the ankles. Then he should magnify Allah (SWT) and praise Him and glorify Him.'" - (One of the narrators) Hammam said: "I heard him say: 'He should praise Allah and glorify Him and magnify Him." He said: "I heard both of them." -"He (the Prophet ﷺ) said: 'He should recite whatever is easy for him of the Quran that Allah has taught him and permitted him in it (the prayer). Then he should say the Takbir and bow until his joints settle and he is relaxed. Then he should say: 'Sami Allahu liman hamidah (Allah hears the one who praises Him)' and stand up straight until his backbone is straight (and at ease). Then he should say Takbir and prostrate until he has placed his face firmly on the ground." "I heard him say: his forehead, until his joints settle and he is relaxed. Then he should say the Takbir and sit up until his backbone is straight (and at ease). Then he should prostrate until he has placed his face firmly on the ground and he is relaxed. If he does not do that then he has not completed his prayer."  

بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ جَالِسٌ وَنَحْنُ حَوْلَهُ إِذْ دَخَلَ رَجُلٌ فَأَتَى الْقِبْلَةَ فَصَلَّى فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلاَتَهُ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَعَلَى الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَعَلَيْكَ اذْهَبْ فَصَلِّ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ فَذَهَبَ فَصَلَّى فَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَرْمُقُ صَلاَتَهُ وَلاَ يَدْرِي مَا يَعِيبُ مِنْهَا فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلاَتَهُ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَعَلَى الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَعَلَيْكَ اذْهَبْ فَصَلِّ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ فَأَعَادَهَا مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاَثًا فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا عِبْتَ مِنْ صَلاَتِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّهَا لَمْ تَتِمَّ صَلاَةُ أَحَدِكُمْ حَتَّى يُسْبِغَ الْوُضُوءَ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ اللَّهُ ﷻ فَيَغْسِلَ وَجْهَهُ وَيَدَيْهِ إِلَى الْمِرْفَقَيْنِ وَيَمْسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرَ اللَّهَ ﷻ وَيَحْمَدَهُ وَيُمَجِّدَهُ قَالَ هَمَّامٌ وَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ وَيَحْمَدَ اللَّهَ وَيُمَجِّدَهُ وَيُكَبِّرَهُ قَالَ فَكِلاَهُمَا قَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ قَالَ وَيَقْرَأَ مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ مِمَّا عَلَّمَهُ اللَّهُ وَأَذِنَ لَهُ فِيهِ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرَ وَيَرْكَعَ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ مَفَاصِلُهُ وَتَسْتَرْخِيَ ثُمَّ يَقُولَ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ ثُمَّ يَسْتَوِيَ قَائِمًا حَتَّى يُقِيمَ صُلْبَهُ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرَ وَيَسْجُدَ حَتَّى يُمَكِّنَ وَجْهَهُ وَقَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ جَبْهَتَهُ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ مَفَاصِلُهُ وَتَسْتَرْخِيَ وَيُكَبِّرَ فَيَرْفَعَ حَتَّى يَسْتَوِيَ قَاعِدًا عَلَى مَقْعَدَتِهِ وَيُقِيمَ صُلْبَهُ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرَ فَيَسْجُدَ حَتَّى يُمَكِّنَ وَجْهَهُ وَيَسْتَرْخِيَ فَإِذَا لَمْ يَفْعَلْ هَكَذَا لَمْ تَتِمَّ صَلاَتُهُ  

This version (of Hadith No 856) adds: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The prayer of any of you is not complete until he performs ablution perfectly, as Allah, the Exalted, has ordered you. He should wash his face and hands up to the elbows, and wipe his head and (wash) his feet up to the ankles. Then he should exalt Allah and praise Him. Then he should recite the Qur'an as much as it is convenient for him. (Narrator then narrated the tradition like Hammad's, No. 856). He said: He then utter the takbir and prostration himself so that his face is at rest. Hammam (sub-narrator) said: Sometimes he reported: So that his forehead is at rest on the ground, and his joints return to their places and are loosened. Then he should say the takbir and then sit right on his hips and erect his back. He described the nature of prayer in this way by offering four rak'ahs until he finished it. The prayer of any of you is not complete unless he does so.  

رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّهَا لاَ تَتِمُّ صَلاَةُ أَحَدِكُمْ حَتَّى يُسْبِغَ الْوُضُوءَ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ اللَّهُ ﷻ فَيَغْسِلَ وَجْهَهُ وَيَدَيْهِ إِلَى الْمِرْفَقَيْنِ وَيَمْسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ اللَّهَ ﷻ وَيَحْمَدُهُ ثُمَّ يَقْرَأُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ مَا أُذِنَ لَهُ فِيهِ وَتَيَسَّرَ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ حَمَّادٍ قَالَ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ فَيَسْجُدُ فَيُمَكِّنُ وَجْهَهُ قَالَ هَمَّامٌ وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ جَبْهَتَهُ مِنَ الأَرْضِ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ مَفَاصِلُهُ وَتَسْتَرْخِيَ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ فَيَسْتَوِي قَاعِدًا عَلَى مَقْعَدِهِ وَيُقِيمُ صُلْبَهُ فَوَصَفَ الصَّلاَةَ هَكَذَا أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ حَتَّى فَرَغَ لاَ تَتِمُّ صَلاَةُ أَحَدِكُمْ حَتَّى يَفْعَلَ ذَلِكَ

[Machine] He was sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when a man came and entered the mosque and prayed. When he finished his prayer, he greeted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the people. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "Go back and pray, as you have not prayed." He mentioned this either twice or three times. The man said, "I do not know what you mean by not praying properly." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The prayer of none of you is complete until he performs ablution as Allah the Almighty has commanded. He washes his face and hands up to the elbows, wipes his head and feet up to the ankles. Then he says the takbeer, praises and glorifies Allah, recites from the Qur'an what Allah has permitted him, then he says the takbeer, bows and places his hands on his knees until his joints are still. Then he stands straight, saying, 'Allah hears whoever praises Him.' He stands straight until every bone returns to its place. Then he performs prostration and places his forehead on the ground until his joints are still. He stands straight, saying the takbeer, raises his head and sits straight on his sitting position while keeping his back straight. He establishes his prayer in this manner until he is finished. Then he said, 'None of your prayers are complete until you do this.'"

[Machine] A man entered the mosque and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sitting, so he prayed. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded him to repeat his prayer two or three times. The man asked, "O Messenger of Allah, why do I have to repeat my prayer two or three times?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The prayer of none of the people is complete until he performs ablution, placing the ablution in its proper places, then he says 'Allahu Akbar' (Allah is the Greatest), then praises Allah the Almighty and glorifies Him, then recites whatever is easy for him from the Qur'an, then he says 'Allahu Akbar' (Allah is the Greatest) until he feels relaxation in his joints, then he says 'Samia Allahu liman hamidah' (Allah hears whoever praises Him), until he is standing straight, then he says 'Allahu Akbar' (Allah is the Greatest) and prostrates until he feels relaxation in his joints, then he raises his head until he is sitting straight, then he prostrates again until he feels relaxation in his joints. If he does not do this, his prayer is not complete."

[Machine] He was sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when a man came and entered the mosque and prayed. When he finished his prayer, he greeted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the people. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "Go back and pray, for you have not prayed." He returned and prayed, and we observed his prayer, not knowing what was wrong with it. When he finished his prayer, he greeted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the people. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "Go back and pray, for you have not prayed." He mentioned this either two or three times. The man said, "I do not know what wrong I have done in my prayer." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, the prayer is not complete for any of you until he performs ablution as prescribed by Allah. He should wash his face and hands up to the elbows, wipe his head and his feet up to the ankles, then he should say the takbir and praise and glorify Allah, and recite from the Qur'an whatever Allah has permitted him. Then he should say the takbir and bow, placing his palms on his knees until his joints are at rest, then he should stand up straight until all his bones return to their place, then he should say, 'Allah hears the one who praises Him.' Then he should stand until all his joints are at rest, then he should say the takbir and prostrate, placing his forehead on the ground until his joints are at rest, then he should stand up straight until all his bones return to their place, then he should say the takbir and sit on his left thigh, keeping his back straight, and then he should recite the tashahhud, and describe the prayer in this manner until he finishes. Then he said, 'The prayer of any one of you is not complete until he does that.'"  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِذْ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَدَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَصَلَّى فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَلَى الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَلَيْكَ ارْجِعْ فَصَلِّ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ قَالَ فَرَجَعَ فَصَلَّى فَجَعَلْنَا نَرْمُقُ صَلَاتَهُ لَا نَدْرِي مَا يَعِيبُ مِنْهَا فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَلَى الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ارْجِعْ فَصَلِّ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ وَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ إِمَّا مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ إِمَّا ثَلَاثًا فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ مَا أَدْرِي مَا عِبْتَ عَلَيَّ مِنْ صَلَاتِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّهَا لَا تَتِمُّ صَلَاةُ أَحَدِكُمْ حَتَّى يُسْبِغَ الْوُضُوءَ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى يَغْسِلُ وَجْهَهُ وَيَدَيْهِ إِلَى الْمِرْفَقَيْنِ وَيَمْسَحُ بِرَأْسِهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ وَيَحْمَدُ اللهَ وَيُمَجِّدُهُ وَيَقْرَأُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ مَا أَذِنَ اللهُ لَهُ فِيهِ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ فَيَرْكَعُ وَيَضَعُ كَفَّيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ مَفَاصِلُهُ فَيَسْتَوِيَ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ وَيَسْتَوِي قَائِمًا حَتَّى يَأْخُذَ كُلُّ عُضْوٍ مَأْخَذَهُ ثُمَّ يُقِيمُ صُلْبَهُ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ فَيَسْجُدُ فَيُمَكِّنُ جَبْهَتَهُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ مَفَاصِلُهُ وَيَسْتَوِيَ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ فَيَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ وَيَسْتَوِي قَاعِدًا عَلَى مَقْعَدَتِهِ وَيُقِيمُ صُلْبَهُ فَوَصَفَ الصَّلَاةَ هَكَذَا حَتَّى فَرَغَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَا تَتِمُّ صَلَاةُ أَحَدِكُمْ حَتَّى يَفْعَلَ ذَلِكَ
