اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي سَهْلٍ . ح قَالَ: أَنْبأَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: "مَنْ صَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ، كَانَ كَقِيَامِ نِصْفِ لَيْلَةٍ، وَمَنْ صَلَّى الْفَجْرَ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ كَانَ كَقِيَامِ لَيْلَةٍ".
Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever prays the 'Isha prayer in congregation, he will have the reward of standing (in prayer) for half the night, and whoever also prays the Fajr prayer in congregation, he will have the reward of standing (in prayer) for the entire night."
Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Hadith 1257)
From this hadith, the reward for performing the ‘Isha and Fajr prayers in congregation is understood. Furthermore, it is evident that there is great reward in performing the obligatory (fard) prayers in congregation.
The reward for one prayer is equal to that of 25 or 27 prayers, and there is a severe warning for those who lag behind from the congregation.
The Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam even intended to burn down the houses of those who stay behind from the congregational prayer, as has already been mentioned.
