Chapter on the Virtue of Ablution, Walking to the Mosques, and Praying with That Ablution
Hadith 588
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((لَا يَتَوَضَّأُ أَحَدٌ فَيُحْسِنُ وَضُوءَهُ وَيُسْبِغُهُ ثُمَّ يَأْتِي الْمَسْجِدَ لَا يُرِيدُ إِلَّا الصَّلَاةَ فِيهِ إِلَّا تَبَشْبَشَ اللَّهُ بِهِ كَمَا يَتَبَشْبَشُ أَهْلُ الْغَائِبِ بِطَلْعَتِهِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "When a person performs ablution and performs it well and completely, and then comes to the mosque solely with the intention of prayer, Allah Almighty becomes as pleased because of him as people are pleased at the arrival of a man who had been absent."
Hadith 589
عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((أَلَا أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى مَا يُكَفِّرُ اللَّهُ بِهِ الْخَطَايَا وَيَزِيدُ بِهِ فِي الْحَسَنَاتِ؟)) قَالُوا: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! قَالَ: ((إِسْبَاغُ الْوُضُوءِ عَلَى الْمَكَارِهِ وَكَثْرَةُ الْخُطَا إِلَى الْمَسَاجِدِ وَانْتِظَارُ الصَّلَاةِ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ))
Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Shall I not guide you to such deeds by which Allah erases sins and increases good deeds?" The people said: "Yes, indeed, O Messenger of Allah!" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Completing ablution thoroughly despite dislikes, taking many steps towards the mosques, and waiting for one prayer after another prayer."
Hadith 590
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِثْلُهُ وَزَادَ: ((فَذَلِكَ الرِّبَاطُ))
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) also narrated a similar hadith from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), but with this addition: "This is ribat."
Hadith 591
عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ الرَّجُلُ فَأَتَى الْمَسْجِدَ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ بِكُلِّ خُطْوَةٍ يَخْطُوها عَشْرَ حَسَنَاتٍ، فَإِذَا صَلَّى فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ثُمَّ قَعَدَ فِيهِ كَانَ كَالصَّائِمِ الْقَانِتِ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "When a servant performs ablution and comes to the mosque, Allah Almighty writes ten good deeds for each step he takes. Then, when he prays in the mosque and sits there, he is like one who fasts and stands in prayer, until he returns."
Hadith 592
عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَأَحْسَنَ وَضُوءَهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ عَامِدًا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَلَا يُشَبِّكْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَإِنَّهُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ka'b bin 'Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When any one of you performs ablution and performs it well, and then sets out with the intention of prayer, he should not intertwine his fingers with each other, because he is considered to be in prayer."
Hadith 593
عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ فَأَسْبَغَ الْوُضُوءَ ثُمَّ مَشَى إِلَى صَلَاةٍ مَكْتُوبَةٍ فَصَلَّاهَا غُفِرَ لَهُ ذَنْبُهُ))
Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever performs ablution and perfects the ablution, then goes to the mosque to perform the obligatory prayer and performs that prayer, his sins will be forgiven."
Hadith 594
وَعَنْهُ أَيْضًا قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ فِي هَذَا الْمَجْلِسِ تَوَضَّأَ فَأَحْسَنَ الْوُضُوءَ ثُمَّ قَالَ: ((مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ مِثْلَ وَضُوئِي هَذَا ثُمَّ أَتَى الْمَسْجِدَ فَرَكَعَ فِيهِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ)) وَقَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((لَا تَغْتَرُّوا))
It is also narrated from Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan, may Allah be pleased with him, who says: I saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, while he was in this gathering, he performed ablution and performed it well, and then said: "Whoever performs ablution like this of mine, then comes to the mosque and offers two rak'ahs, his previous sins will be forgiven." Then he said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "So do not be deceived."
