بَابُ التَّرْغِيبِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فِي رَمَضَانَChapter on encouragement to pray in Ramadan
Hadith 246
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَصَلَّى بِصَلَاتِهِ نَاسٌ ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى اللَّيْلَةَ الْقَابِلَةَ فَكَثُرَ النَّاسُ ، ثُمَّ اجْتَمَعُوا مِنَ اللَّيْلَةِ الثَّالِثَةِ أَوِ الرَّابِعَةِ ، فَلَمْ يَخْرُجْ إِلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ ، قَالَ : " قَدْ رَأَيْتُ الَّذِي صَنَعْتُمْ ، وَلَمْ يَمْنَعْنِي مِنَ الْخُرُوجِ إِلَيْكُمْ إِلَّا أَنِّي خَشِيتُ أَنْ تُفْرَضَ عَلَيْكُمْ ، وَذَلِكَ فِي رَمَضَانَ "
It is narrated from Umm al-Mu'minin Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) prayed in the mosque one night, so people also prayed behind him. Then on the second night, he prayed in the same way, and more people came. Then on the third or fourth night, a large number of people gathered, but the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not come out. When morning came, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "I saw what you did, but nothing prevented me from coming out except that I feared that this (prayer) might become obligatory upon you." And this incident took place in Ramadan.
