عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ الْإِسْرَاءِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ((ثُمَّ عُرِجَ بِنَا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ السَّادِسَةِ فَاسْتَفْتَحَ جِبْرِيلُ فَقِيلَ مَنْ أَنْتَ قَالَ جِبْرِيلُ قِيلَ وَمَنْ مَعَكَ قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقِيلَ وَقَدْ بُعِثَ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ قَدْ بُعِثَ إِلَيْهِ فَفَتَحَ لَنَا فَإِذَا أَنَا بِمُوسَى عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فَرَحَّبَ وَدَعَا بِخَيْرٍ)) وَفِيهِ أَيْضًا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ((فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِلَيَّ مَا أَوْحَى وَفَرَضَ عَلَيَّ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ خَمْسِينَ صَلَاةً فَنَزَلْتُ حَتَّى انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى مُوسَى فَقَالَ مَا فَرَضَ رَبُّكَ عَلَى أُمَّتِكَ قُلْتُ خَمْسِينَ صَلَاةً فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ قَالَ ارْجِعْ إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَاسْأَلْهُ التَّخْفِيفَ فَإِنَّ أُمَّتَكَ لَا تُطِيقُ ذَلِكَ فَإِنِّي قَدْ بَلَوْتُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَخَبَرْتُهُمْ فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى رَبِّي عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَقُلْتُ أَيْ رَبِّ خَفِّفْ عَنْ أُمَّتِي فَحَطَّ عَنِّي خَمْسًا فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى مُوسَى فَقَالَ مَا فَعَلْتَ قُلْتُ حَطَّ عَنِّي خَمْسًا قَالَ إِنَّ أُمَّتَكَ لَا تُطِيقُ ذَلِكَ فَارْجِعْ إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَاسْأَلْهُ التَّخْفِيفَ فَلَمْ أَزَلْ أَرْجِعُ بَيْنَ رَبِّي وَبَيْنَ مُوسَى وَيَحُطَّ عَنِّي خَمْسًا حَتَّى قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ هِيَ خَمْسُ صَلَوَاتٍ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ بِكُلِّ صَلَاةٍ عَشْرٌ فَتِلْكَ خَمْسُونَ صَلَاةً وَمَنْ هَمَّ بِحَسَنَةٍ فَلَمْ يَفْعَلْهَا كُتِبَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَةٌ فَإِنْ عَمِلَهَا كُتِبَتْ عَشْرًا وَمَنْ هَمَّ بِسَيِّئَةٍ فَلَمْ يَعْمَلْهَا لَمْ تُكْتَبْ شَيْئًا فَإِنْ عَمِلَهَا كُتِبَتْ سَيِّئَةً وَاحِدَةً فَنَزَلْتُ حَتَّى انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى مُوسَى فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ ارْجِعْ إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَاسْأَلْهُ التَّخْفِيفَ لِأُمَّتِكَ فَإِنَّ أُمَّتَكَ لَا تُطِيقُ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَقَدْ رَجَعْتُ إِلَى رَبِّي حَتَّى لَقَدِ اسْتَحْيَيْتُ))
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), narrating the hadith of Isra, reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Then I was taken up to the sixth heaven. Jibreel (peace be upon him) requested for it to be opened. It was asked: Who are you? He said: I am Jibreel. Then it was asked: Who is with you? He said: Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is with me. Then it was asked: Has a message been sent to him? He said: Yes, a message has been sent to him. So the door was opened for us. Suddenly, I saw Hazrat Musa (peace be upon him). He welcomed me and prayed for my goodness and well-being, … … , then Allah Almighty revealed to me what He wished to reveal, and fifty prayers were made obligatory upon me in a day. On my return, when I passed by Hazrat Musa (peace be upon him), he said to me: Return to your Lord and ask for a reduction, your Ummah will not be able to perform these prayers, for I have tested the Children of Israel. So I returned to my Lord and said: O my Lord! Please lighten (the burden) for my Ummah. So Allah Almighty reduced five prayers. But when I returned to Musa (peace be upon him), he asked: What have you done? I said: Five prayers have been reduced. He said: Your Ummah will not be able to perform (forty-five) prayers, so return and ask your Lord for a reduction for your Ummah. So I kept going back and forth between my Lord and Musa (peace be upon him), and Allah Almighty kept reducing five prayers each time, until He said: O Muhammad! There are five prayers in a day and night, the reward for each prayer will be tenfold, so it is as if they are fifty prayers, because whoever intends to do a good deed but does not actually do it, it is still written as a good deed for him, and whoever intends to do a bad deed but does not actually commit it, no bad deed will be written for him, and whoever commits it, one bad deed will be written for him. So I descended and reached Musa (peace be upon him) and told him the whole detail. He said: Return to your Lord and ask for a reduction for your Ummah, for your Ummah will not be able to bear even this. But the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I have gone to my Lord so many times that now I feel shy.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Musa (alayhis salam) had practical experience with people, therefore he advised to have the number of prayers reduced.
