Hadith 649
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ جَمِيعًا ، عَنْ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ ، قَالَ أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " صَلَاةُ الرَّجُلِ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ ، تَزِيدُ عَلَى صَلَاتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ ، وَصَلَاتِهِ فِي سُوقِهِ ، بِضْعًا وَعِشْرِينَ دَرَجَةً ، وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ فَأَحْسَنَ الْوُضُوءَ ، ثُمَّ أَتَى الْمَسْجِدَ ، لَا يَنْهَزُهُ إِلَّا الصَّلَاةُ ، لَا يُرِيدُ إِلَّا الصَّلَاةَ ، فَلَمْ يَخْطُ خَطْوَةً ، إِلَّا رُفِعَ لَهُ بِهَا دَرَجَةٌ ، وَحُطَّ عَنْهُ بِهَا خَطِيئَةٌ ، حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ الْمَسْجِدَ ، فَإِذَا دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ ، كَانَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ ، مَا كَانَتِ الصَّلَاةُ هِيَ تَحْبِسُهُ ، وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى أَحَدِكُمْ ، مَا دَامَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ الَّذِي صَلَّى فِيهِ ، يَقُولُونَ : اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْهُ ، اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ ، اللَّهُمَّ تُبْ عَلَيْهِ ، مَا لَمْ يُؤْذِ فِيهِ ، مَا لَمْ يُحْدِثْ فِيهِ " .
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: A man's prayer in congregation is more valuable than twenty degrees and some above them as compared with his prayer in his house and his market, for when he performs ablution doing it well, then goes out to the mosque, and he is impelled (to do so) only by (the love of congregational) prayer, he has no other objective before him but prayer. He does not take a step without being raised a degree for it and having a sin remitted for it, till he enters the mosque, and when he is busy in prayer after having entered the mosque, the angels continue to invoke blessing on him as long as he is in his place of worship. saying: O Allah, show him mercy, and pardon him! Accept his repentance (and the angels continue this supplication for him) so long as he does not do any harm in it, or as long as his ablution is not broken.
Hadith 649
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الأَشْعَثِيُّ ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْثَرٌ . ح ، وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكَّارِ بْنِ الرَّيَّانِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل بْنُ زَكَرِيَّاءَ . ح ، وحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ كُلُّهُمْ ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ ، فِي هَذَا الإِسْنَادِ بِمِثْلِ مَعْنَاهُ .

Hadith 649
وحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ السَّخْتِيَانِيِّ ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تُصَلِّي عَلَى أَحَدِكُمْ مَا دَامَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ ، تَقُولُ : اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ ، اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْهُ ، مَا لَمْ يُحْدِثْ وَأَحَدُكُمْ فِي صَلَاةٍ ، مَا كَانَتِ الصَّلَاةُ تَحْبِسُهُ " .
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: The angels invoke blessings on everyone among you so long as he is in a place of worship with these words: O Allah! pardon him, O Allah, have mercy upon him, (and they continue to do so) as long as the ablution (of the worshipper) is not broken, and one among you is in prayer and so long as he is detained for the prayer.
Hadith 649
وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " لَا يَزَالُ الْعَبْدُ فِي صَلَاةٍ ، مَا كَانَ فِي مُصَلَّاهُ يَنْتَظِرُ الصَّلَاةَ ، وَتَقُولُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ : اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ ، اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْهُ ، حَتَّى يَنْصَرِفَ أَوْ يُحْدِثَ " ، قُلْتُ : مَا يُحْدِثُ ؟ قَالَ : يَفْسُو أَوْ يَضْرِطُ .
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: The servant is constantly in prayer so long as he is in a place of worship waiting for the prayer (to be observed in congregation), and the angels invoke (blessings upon him in these words): O Allah! pardon him. O Allah! show mercy to him, (and they continue to do so) till he returns (from the mosque having completed the prayer) or his ablution breaks. I said: How is the ablution broken? He said: By breaking of the wind noiselessly or with noise.
Hadith 649
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى ، قَالَ : قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " لَا يَزَالُ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي صَلَاةٍ ، مَا دَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ تَحْبِسُهُ ، لَا يَمْنَعُهُ أَنْ يَنْقَلِبَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ ، إِلَّا الصَّلَاةُ " .
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: Everyone among you is constantly in prayer so long as the prayer detains him (for this noble objective) and nothing prevents him to return to his family but the prayer.
Hadith 649
حَدَّثَنِي حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ . ح ، وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ الْمُرَادِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ ، عَنْ يُونُسَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ هُرْمُزَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " أَحَدُكُمْ مَا قَعَدَ يَنْتَظِرُ الصَّلَاةَ فِي صَلَاةٍ ، مَا لَمْ يُحْدِثْ ، تَدْعُو لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ : اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ ، اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْهُ " ،
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Anyone amongst you who sat in a place of worship waiting for the prayer is in prayer and his ablution is not broken, the angels invoke blessing upon him (in these words): O Allah! pardon him. O Allah! have mercy upon him.
