[Machine] I asked Jabir ibn Samurah, "How was the prayer of the Messenger of Allah?" He said, "His sermon was concise, and his prayer was concise."  

الطبراني:٢٠٢١وَعَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ قَالَ

قُلْتُ لِجَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ كَيْفَ كَانَتْ صَلَاةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ «كَانَتْ خُطْبَتُهُ قَصْدًا وَصَلَاتُهُ قَصْدًا»
