عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ، عَنْ كَعْبٍ

[Machine] I witnessed one of the two Eids with Ka'ab, and when the people dispersed, most of them went to the mosque and I saw him heading towards the house. So I said, "O Abu, why don't you go to the mosque? I see people heading towards it." He said, "Many of what you see is hypocrisy and lack of knowledge. These two units of prayer are enough for this day, until the prayer invites you."  

شَهِدْتُ مَعَ كَعْبٍ إِحْدَى الْعِيدَيْنِ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ النَّاسُ ذَهَبَ أَكْثَرُهُمْ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ وَرَأَيْتُهُ يَعْمِدُ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَةَ أَلَا تَعْمِدُ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَإِنِّي أَرَى النَّاسَ يَعْمِدُونَ إِلَيْهِ؟ فَقَالَ «إِنَّ كَثِيرًا مِمَّا تَرَى جَفَاءٌ وَقِلَّةُ عِلْمٍ إِنَّ هَاتَيْنِ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ سُبْحَةُ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ حَتَّى تَكُونَ الصَّلَاةُ تَدْعُوكَ»
