حَدِيثُ أَبِي ذَرٍّ الْغِفَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُHadith of Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him)
Hadith 21444
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ بُشَيْرِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ الْعَدَوِيِّ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ عَنَزَةَ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِأَبِي ذَرٍّ : حِينَ سُيِّرَ مِنَ الشَّامِ ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ ، وَقَالَ فِيهِ : هَلْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَافِحُكُمْ إِذَا لَقِيتُمُوهُ ؟ فَقَالَ : مَا لَقِيتُهُ قَطُّ إِلَّا صَافَحَنِي .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we went out from one of the outskirts of Madinah Munawwarah, and I was behind the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Abu Dharr! Perform the prayer at its appointed time. If you come at a time when people have already performed the prayer, then you have preserved your prayer. And if they have not yet performed the prayer, then join them, and this prayer will be counted as a voluntary (nafl) prayer for you.
