بَابُ إِعَادَةِ الصَّلَاةِ مَعَ الْإِمَامِChapter on repeating prayer with the imam
Hadith 297
وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ ، فَقَالَ : إِنِّي أُصَلِّي فِي بَيْتِي ثُمَّ آتِ الْمَسْجِدَ فَأَجِدُ الْإِمَامَ يُصَلِّي ، أَفَأُصَلِّي مَعَهُ ؟ فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ : نَعَمْ ، فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ : فَأَيُّهُمَا صَلَاتِي ؟ فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ : " أَوَ أَنْتَ تَجْعَلُهُمَا ، إِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ إِلَى اللَّهِ "
Yahya ibn Sa'id narrated that a man asked Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him): "I perform prayer in my house, then I come to the mosque and find the imam praying. Should I pray with him again?" Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Yes." The man then asked: "Which of the two prayers should I consider as obligatory?" Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Can you distinguish between obligatory and supererogatory prayers? This matter belongs to Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He."
