Hadith 865
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ ، قال : حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ ، عَنْ شُعَيْبٍ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، قال : أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، وَأَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الأَغَرُّ ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ حَدَّثَهُمَا ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " إِنَّمَا مَثَلُ الْمُهَجِّرِ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ كَمَثَلِ الَّذِي يُهْدِي الْبَدَنَةَ ، ثُمَّ الَّذِي عَلَى إِثْرِهِ كَالَّذِي يُهْدِي الْبَقَرَةَ ، ثُمَّ الَّذِي عَلَى إِثْرِهِ كَالَّذِي يُهْدِي الْكَبْشَ ، ثُمَّ الَّذِي عَلَى إِثْرِهِ كَالَّذِي يُهْدِي الدَّجَاجَةَ ثُمَّ الَّذِي عَلَى إِثْرِهِ كَالَّذِي يُهْدِي الْبَيْضَةَ " .
´Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:` "The likeness of one who comes early to prayer is that of one who sacrificed a camel, then the one who comes after him is like one who sacrificed a cow, then the one who comes after him is like one who sacrificed a ram, then the one who comes after him is like one who sacrificed a chicken, then the one who comes after him is like one who sacrificed an egg."
