حَدَّثَنَا
يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى ، قَالَ : قَرَأْتُ عَلَى
مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ
إِسْحَاق بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ ، عَنْ
أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، أَنَّ جَدَّتَهُ مُلَيْكَةَ ، دَعَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِطَعَامٍ صَنَعَتْهُ ، فَأَكَلَ مِنْهُ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " قُومُوا فَأُصَلِّيَ لَكُمْ ، قَالَ أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ : فَقُمْتُ إِلَى حَصِيرٍ لَنَا ، قَدِ اسْوَدَّ مِنْ طُولِ مَا لُبِسَ ، فَنَضَحْتُهُ بِمَاءٍ ، فَقَامَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَصَفَفْتُ أَنَا وَالْيَتِيمُ وَرَاءَهُ ، وَالْعَجُوزُ مِنْ وَرَائِنَا ، فَصَلَّى لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ " .
Anas bin Malik (RA) reported that his grandmother, Mulaikah, invited the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) to a dinner which she had prepared. He (the Holy Prophet) ate out of that and then said: Stand up so that I should observe prayer (in order to bless) you. Anas bin Malik (RA) said: I stood up on a mat (belonging to us) which had turned dark on account of its long use. I sprinkled water over it (in order to soften it), and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stood upon it, and I and an orphan formed a row behind him (the Holy Prophet) and the old woman was behind us, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) led us in two rak'ahs of prayer and then went back.

وحَدَّثَنَا
شَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخَ ،
وَأَبُو الرَّبِيعِ كِلَاهُمَا ، عَنْ
عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ ، قَالَ شَيْبَانُ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ ، عَنْ
أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ ، عَنْ
أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : " كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَحْسَنَ النَّاسِ خُلُقًا ، فَرُبَّمَا تَحْضُرُ الصَّلَاةُ وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتِنَا ، فَيَأْمُرُ بِالْبِسَاطِ الَّذِي تَحْتَهُ ، فَيُكْنَسُ ، ثُمَّ يُنْضَحُ ، ثُمَّ يَؤُمُّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَنَقُومُ خَلْفَهُ ، فَيُصَلِّي بِنَا ، وَكَانَ بِسَاطُهُمْ مِنْ جَرِيدِ النَّخْلِ " .
Anas bin Malik (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was the best among people in character. On occasions, the time of prayer would come while he was in our house. He would then order to spread the mat lying under him. That was dusted and then water was sprinkled over it. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then led the prayer and we stood behind him, and that mat was made of the leaves of date-palm.

حَدَّثَنِي
زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا
هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ ، حَدَّثَنَا
سُلَيْمَانُ ، عَنْ
ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ
أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْنَا ، وَمَا هُوَ إِلَّا أَنَا ، وَأُمِّي ، وَأُمُّ حَرَامٍ خَالَتِي ، فَقَالَ : " قُومُوا فَلِأُصَلِّيَ بِكُمْ فِي غَيْرِ وَقْتِ صَلَاةٍ ، فَصَلَّى بِنَا ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ لِثَابِتٍ : أَيْنَ جَعَلَ أَنَسًا مِنْهُ ؟ قَالَ : جَعَلَهُ عَلَى يَمِينِهِ ، ثُمَّ دَعَا لَنَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ بِكُلِّ خَيْرٍ مِنْ خَيْرِ الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ ، فَقَالَتْ أُمِّي : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، خُوَيْدِمُكَ ادْعُ اللَّهَ لَهُ ، قَالَ : فَدَعَا لِي بِكُلِّ خَيْرٍ ، وَكَانَ فِي آخِرِ مَا دَعَا لِي بِهِ ، أَنْ قَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ أَكْثِرْ مَالَهُ ، وَوَلَدَهُ ، وَبَارِكْ لَهُ فِيهِ " .
Thabit reported on the authority of Anas (RA) : The Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) came to us and there was none in our house but I, my mother and my aunt Umm Haram. He (the Holy Prophet) said: Stand up so that I may lead you in prayer (and there was no time for prescribed prayer). He led us in prayer. A person said to Thabit (RA) : Where stood Anas with him (the Holy Prophet)? He replied: He was on the right side. He then blessed us, the members of the household with every good of this world and of the Hereafter. My mother said: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) (and then, pointing towards Anas, said), here is your little servant, invoke the blessing of Allah upon him too. He then blessed me with every good, and he concluded his blessings for me (with these words): Allah! increase his wealth, and his children and make (them the source of) blessing for him.
