Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 2911 — The religion is ease

قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ : أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ الْعَقَدِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْأَدْرَعِ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ أَحْرُسُ لَيْلَةً رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقُمْتُ ، فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي ، فَاتَّكَأَ عَلَيْهَا ، فَأَتَيْنَا عَلَى رَجُلٍ يُصَلِّي فِي الْمَسْجِدِ رَافِعًا صَوْتَهُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : عَسَى أَنْ يَكُونَ مُرَائِيًا ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ يُصَلِّي وَيَدْعُو ، فَرَفَضَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدِي ، وَقَالَ : إِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تُدْرِكُوا هَذَا الْأَمْرَ بِالْمُغَالَبَةِ ، أَوْ قَالَ بِالشِّدَّةِ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ خَرَجْنَا لَيْلَةً أُخْرَى ، فَمَرَرْنَا بِرَجُلٍ يُصَلِّي رَافِعًا صَوْتَهُ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، عَسَى أَنْ يَكُونَ مُرَائِيًا ، فَقَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : لَا وَلَكِنَّهُ أَوَّاهٌ قَالَ : فَإِذَا الرَّجُلُ عَبْدُ اللهِ ذُو الْبِجَادَيْنِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ وَالْآخَرُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ .
هَذَا إِسْنَادٌ حَسَنٌ .
2911 \ 2 - وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى : حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْمُسَيِّبِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ بِنَحْوِهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn al-Adra' (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: One night I was guarding the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I stood up, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) took my hand and leaned on it. Then we passed by a man who was praying in the mosque in a loud voice, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Perhaps he is one who shows off (in worship)." I said: O Messenger of Allah! He is praying (with utmost humility) and supplicating. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) let go of my hand and said: "You will never attain this matter (the religion) by striving to overpower (one another), or (he said) by harshness." The narrator said: Then we went out on another night and passed by a man who was praying in a loud voice, and I said (drawing an analogy from the earlier incident): O Messenger of Allah! Perhaps he is one who shows off. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No, rather he is awwah (that is, one who weeps much and humbly implores before Allah)." The narrator said: That man was Sayyiduna Abdullah Dhu al-Bijadayn (may Allah be pleased with him), and the other was a Bedouin (a desert Arab).
This chain is hasan (good).
And Imam Abu Ya'la (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated: Muhammad bin Ishaq al-Musayyibi narrated to us, from Sulayman bin Dawud, from Dawud bin Qays, from Zayd bin Aslam (may Allah have mercy on him), a similar hadith.
