باب مَنْ أَدْرَكَ رَكْعَةً مِنْ صَلاَةٍ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَ:Chapter: Whoever Catches a Rak'ah of Prayer Has Caught the Prayer
Hadith 1256
اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَجِيدِ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، وَعَنْ بُسْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، وَعَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ يُحَدِّثُونَهُ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: "مَنْ أَدْرَكَ مِنْ الصُّبْحِ رَكْعَةً قَبْلَ أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ، فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَهَا، وَمَنْ أَدْرَكَ مِنْ الْعَصْرِ رَكْعَةً قَبْلَ أَنْ تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ، فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَهَا".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “Whoever catches one rak‘ah of the Fajr prayer before the sun rises, he has attained the (reward of) Fajr prayer (in congregation), and whoever catches one rak‘ah of the ‘Asr prayer before the sun sets, he has attained the (reward of) ‘Asr prayer (in congregation).”
Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Ahadith 1253 to 1256)
The meaning of these ahadith is: If, due to a valid Shar‘i excuse, someone is delayed in joining the prayer and manages to catch even one rak‘ah, then Allah Ta‘ala, out of His grace and mercy, grants him the reward of having performed the entire congregational prayer. And after having caught one rak‘ah, without any hesitation, he should complete the remainder of the prayer.
