حَدَّثَنَا
مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي
أَبِي ، عَنْ
قَتَادَةَ ، عَنِ
الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ
أَبِي رَافِعٍ ، عَنْ
أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ :
" لَوْ أَنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ إِذَا شَهِدَ الصَّلَاةَ مَعِي كَانَ لَهُ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ شَاةٍ سَمِينَةٍ أَوْ شَاتَيْنِ لَفَعَلَ ، فَمَا يُصِيبُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ أَفْضَلُ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If any one of you were certain that by joining me in prayer he would receive a large, fat bone or two excellent houses, he would surely participate in the prayer; whereas the reward he actually receives is even greater than that.
