Hadith 655
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ ، عَنْ أَبِي الشَّعْثَاءِ ، قَالَ : " كُنَّا قُعُودًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ مَعَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، فَأَذَّنَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ ، فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ يَمْشِي ، فَأَتْبَعَهُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ بَصَرَهُ ، حَتَّى خَرَجَ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ : أَمَّا هَذَا ، فَقَدْ عَصَى أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " .
Abu Sha'tha' reported: While we were sitting with Abu Hurairah (RA) in a mosque a man went out of the mosque after the call to prayer had been announced. (A man stood up in the mosque and set off.) Abu Hurairah (RA) 's eyes followed him till he went out of the mosque. Upon this Abu Hurairah (RA) said: This man has disobeyed Abu'l- Qasim (Muhammad) (ﷺ) .

Hadith Commentary:
Benefits and Issues:
When a person is present in the mosque, he should not leave the congregation without necessity or excuse. However, if someone has to lead a congregation elsewhere, or if there is no water in the mosque and there is a need to relieve oneself, or if he intends to return after performing ablution (wudu), then he may leave the mosque.
