Hadith 2519

عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ يَسْعَى فَانْتَهَى وَقَدْ حَفَزَهُ النَّفَسُ أَوْ انْبَهَرَ فَلَمَّا انْتَهَى إِلَى الصَّفِّ قَالَ: الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ، فَلَمَّا قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ: ((أَيُّكُمُ الْمُتَكَلِّمُ؟)) فَسَكَتَ الْقَوْمُ، فَقَالَ: ((أَيُّكُمُ الْمُتَكَلِّمْ؟ فَإِنَّهُ قَالَ خَيْرًا أَوْ لَمْ يَقُلْ بَأْسًا))، قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! أَنَا أَسْرَعْتُ الْمَشْيَ فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى الصَّفِّ فَقُلْتُ الَّذِي قُلْتُ، قَالَ: ((لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ مَلَكًا يَبْتَدِرُونَهَا أَيُّهُمْ يَرْفَعُهَا))، ثُمَّ قَالَ: ((إِذَا جَاءَ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَلْيَمْشِ عَلَى هِنَتِهِ فَلْيُصَلِّ مَا أَدْرَكَ وَلْيَقْضِ مَا سَبَقَهُ))
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The prayer had been established, a man came running, when he reached the mosque, he was out of breath. When he stood in the row, he said: "Alhamdulillahi hamdan katheeran tayyiban mubaarakan feehi" (All praise is due to Allah, abundant, pure, and blessed praise). When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) completed the prayer, he asked: Who among you was the one speaking? The people remained silent. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked again: Who was the one speaking? He has said a good thing, there was nothing wrong in it. That man said: O Messenger of Allah! I had come walking quickly, when I stood in the row, I said these words. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I saw twelve angels rushing towards it, as to who would take these words (first) upwards. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When any of you comes to prayer, he should come walking as usual, whatever part of the prayer he catches, he should perform, and whatever he misses, he should complete it (afterwards).
