٥٥١٣ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال حدثنا شريك عن مختار أبي غسان عن أبي ظبيان الجنبي قال: قال (علي) (١) تؤتى الجمعة (ولو حبوًا) (٢) (٣).
Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: One must come to the Friday prayer, even if one has to crawl on one's knees.
٥٥١٤ - حدثنا حسين بن علي عن الحسن بن (الحر) (١) عن ميمون بن (أبي) (٢) (شبيب) (٣) قال: أردت الجمعة في زمن الحجاج فتهيأت للذهاب ثم قلت: (أين) (٤) أذهب؟ أصلي خلف هذا قال: فقلت مرة أذهب ومرة لا أذهب قال: (فاجتمع) (٥) رأيي على الذهاب قال: فناداني مناد من جانب البيت ﴿يَاأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا نُودِيَ لِلصَّلَاةِ مِنْ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ فَاسْعَوْا إِلَى ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ وَذَرُوا الْبَيْعَ﴾ [الجمعة: ٩]، قال: وجلست مرة أكتب كتابا فعرض في شيء إن أنا كتبته في كتابي زين كتابي، وكنت قد كذبت وإن أنا تركه كان في كتابي بعض القبح، وكنت قد صدقت، فقلت مرة أكتبه وقلت مرة لا أكتبه قال: (فاجتمع) (٦) رأيي على تركه فتركته قال: فناداني مناد من جانب البيت: ﴿يُثَبِّتُ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِالْقَوْلِ الثَّابِتِ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ﴾ [إبراهيم: ٢٧].
Maymun bin Abi Shabib said: In the time of al-Hajjaj bin Yusuf I intended to go to the Friday prayer and even got ready. Then the thought came to me: Should I pray behind this man? Sometimes I thought I would go, and sometimes I thought I would not go. In the end my decision settled on going to the prayer. Just then I heard a caller from a side of the house calling out: "O you who believe, when the call is made for the prayer on Friday, then hasten to the remembrance of Allah and leave off trade" [al-Jumu'ah: 9].
Likewise, once I sat down to write a letter, and something came to my mind that was contrary to the truth, but writing it would have embellished my letter. So sometimes I felt like embellishing the letter by writing the falsehood, and sometimes I felt like leaving it out and keeping the letter truthful. In the end my decision settled on leaving it out. At that I heard a caller from a side of the house calling out: "Allah keeps firm those who believe with the firm word, in the life of this world and in the Hereafter" [Ibrahim: 27].

٥٥١٥ - حدثنا محمد بن فضيل عن أبي سنان عن عبد اللَّه بن أبي الهذيل قال: تذاكروا الجمعة زمان المختار فقال: ائتوها وإن بلغ الماء الحصى.
Abu Sinan said: In the time of al-Mukhtar the Friday prayer was being discussed, and Abdullah bin Abi al-Hudhayl said: "Come to the Friday prayer, even if the water reaches the pebbles."
