Hadith 10037

عَنْ مِحْجَنِ بْنِ الْأَدْرَعِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِبَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ إِذَا رَجُلٌ يُصَلِّي قَالَ أَتَقُولُهُ صَادِقًا قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ هَذَا فُلَانٌ وَهَذَا مِنْ أَحْسَنِ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ أَوْ قَالَ أَكْثَرُ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ صَلَاةً قَالَ لَا تُسْمِعْهُ فَتُهْلِكَهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا إِنَّكُمْ أُمَّةٌ أُرِيدَ بِكُمُ الْيُسْرُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mihjan bin Adra’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that he was with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at the door of the mosque, when suddenly he saw a man performing prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: What do you think, is this man truthful? I said: O Messenger of Allah! This is such-and-such a man, the best and most frequent performer of prayer in Madinah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: You should not say this in his presence, otherwise you will destroy him. He repeated this two or three times and then said: Indeed, you are a community for whom ease has been intended.
