[Machine] Hanein went for Hajj during the time of Uthman ibn Affan. I sat in a gathering in the Prophet's Mosque when a man among them began speaking. He said, "We were with the Messenger of Allah one day, and a man came and prayed near this pillar. He hurried before completing his prayer, then he left." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If this man were to die, he would die while not having perfected his prayer. He is not following the religion in any way. Indeed, a person should take his time and complete his prayer." I asked about this man, and I was told it was Uthman ibn Hunayf al-Ansari.
هَانِئٌ حَجَجْنَا فِي زَمَانِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ ؓ فَجَلَسْتُ فِي مَجْلِسٍ فِي مَسْجِدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ يُحَدِّثُهُمْ قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمًا فَأَقْبَلَ رَجُلٌ فَصَلَّى إِلَى هَذَا الْعَمُودِ فَعَجِلَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُتِمَّ صَلَاتَهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ هَذَا لَوْ مَاتَ لَمَاتَ وَلَيْسَ هُوَ مِنَ الدِّينِ عَلَى شَيْءٍ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيُخَفِّفُ وَيُتِمُّهَا» فَسَأَلْتُ عَنْ هَذَا الرَّجُلِ فَقِيلَ لِي عُثْمَانُ بْنُ حُنَيْفٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ
