Hadith 194
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: ثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ، قَالَ: ثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، قَالَ: ثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، قَالَ: ثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ خَلَّادٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ رِفَاعَةَ بْنِ رَافِعٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذْ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَدَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَصَلَّى فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَعَلَى الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَعَلَيْكَ ارْجِعْ فَصَلِّهِ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ» ، قَالَ فَرَجَعَ فَصَلَّى قَالَ فَجَعَلْنَا نَرْمُقُ صَلَاتَهُ لَا نَدْرِي مَا يَعِيبُ مِنْهَا فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَعَلَى الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَعَلَيْكَ ارْجِعْ فَصَلِّهِ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ» ، وَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ إِمَّا مَرَّتَيْنِ وَإِمَّا ثَلَاثًا فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ: مَا أَدْرِي مَا عِبْتَ عَلَيَّ مِنْ صَلَاتِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّهَا لَا تَتِمُّ صَلَاةُ أَحَدِكُمْ حَتَّى يُسْبِغَ الْوُضُوءَ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فَيَغْسِلُ وَجْهَهُ وَيَدَيْهِ إِلَى الْمِرْفَقَيْنِ وَيَمْسَحُ بِرَأْسِهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ اللَّهَ وَيَحْمَدُهُ وَيُمَجِّدَهُ وَيَقْرَأُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ مَا أَذِنَ اللَّهُ لَهُ فِيهِ وَتَيَسَّرَ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ فَيَرْكَعُ فَيَضَعُ كَفَّيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ مَفَاصِلُهُ وَتَسْتَرْخِيَ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ يَسْتَوِي قَائِمًا حَتَّى يَأْخُذَ كُلُّ عَظْمٍ مَأْخَذَهُ وَيُقِيمُ صُلْبَهُ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ فَيَسْجُدُ فَيُمَكِّنُ جَبْهَتَهُ قَالَ هَمَّامٌ: وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ: فَيُمَكِّنُ وَجْهَهُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ مَفَاصِلُهُ وَتَسْتَرْخِيَ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ فَيَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ وَيَسْتَوِي قَاعِدًا عَلَى مَقْعَدَتِهِ وَيُقِيمُ صُلْبَهُ فَوَصْفُ الصَّلَاةِ هَكَذَا حَتَّى فَرَغَ ثُمَّ قَالَ: «لَا تَتِمُّ صَلَاةُ أَحَدِكُمْ حَتَّى يَفْعَلَ ذَلِكَ»
Sayyiduna Rifa’ah bin Rafi’ (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that he was sitting with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when a man entered the mosque and performed prayer. When he finished the prayer, he came to the Prophet and greeted him and all the people with salam. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) replied to him and said: Go back and pray, for you have not prayed. The companion says that he went back and prayed, so we began to observe his prayer, but we did not know what deficiency there was in his prayer. When he finished the prayer, he came to the Prophet and greeted him and all the people with salam. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) replied to him and said: Go back and pray again, for you have not prayed. Two or three times the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said this in the same way, so the man said: I do not know what deficiency you find in my prayer? The Prophet said: A person’s prayer is not complete until he performs ablution properly according to the way Allah has prescribed; he should wash his face and both hands up to and including the elbows, wipe his head, and wash both feet up to and including the ankles. Then he should say the takbir, praise and glorify Allah, then recite from the Qur’an as much as he is able according to Allah’s command. Then he should say the takbir and bow (ruku’), placing his palms on his knees until the joints settle in their places. Then, after saying «سمع الله لمن حمده», he should stand up straight until every bone returns to its place and the back is straight. Then, after saying the takbir, he should prostrate, placing his forehead firmly on the ground (Hammam [may Allah have mercy on him] says: sometimes the place of the forehead is mentioned as the face) until the joints settle in their places. Then, after saying the takbir, he should raise his head and sit upright on his buttocks and straighten his back. The Prophet described the entire prayer in this manner until he finished the prayer, then said: No one’s prayer is complete until he prays in this way.
