Hadith 2523
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ فَأَحْسَنَ وَضُوءَهُ ثُمَّ رَاحَ فَوَجَدَ النَّاسَ قَدْ صَلَّوْا أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ مِثْلَ أَجْرِ مَنْ صَلَّاهَا أَوْ حَضَرَهَا لَا يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا))
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: Whoever performs ablution and performs it well, then goes (towards the mosque), but finds that the people have already performed the prayer, Allah Almighty will grant him a reward equal to that of those who were present at the prayer, and this will not diminish anything from their rewards.
Hadith 2524
(وَعَنْهُ أَيْضًا) قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((إِذَا ثُوِّبَ بِالصَّلَاةِ فَلَا تَأْتُوهَا وَأَنْتُمْ تَسْعَوْنَ وَأْتُوهَا وَعَلَيْكُمُ السَّكِينَةُ، فَمَا أَدْرَكْتُمْ فَصَلُّوا، وَمَا فَاتَكُمْ فَأَتِمُّوا، فَإِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ فِي صَلَاةٍ إِذَا مَا كَانَ يَعْمِدُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ))
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 the iqamah for prayer is called, do not come running for the prayer, but come in a state of calmness and dignity. Then, whatever you catch (with the imam), perform it, and whatever you miss, complete it later. For when any of you intends to pray, he is already considered to be in prayer.
