أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ، ثنا أَبُو إِسْمَاعِيلَ التِّرْمِذِيُّ، ثنا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، ثنا أَبَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْعَطَّارُ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: بَيْنَمَا رَجُلٌ يُصَلِّي مُسْبِلٌ إِزَارَهُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " اذْهَبْ فَتَوَضَّأْ " فَذَهَبَ فَتَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اذْهَبْ فَتَوَضَّأْ فَذَهَبَ فَتَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ مَا لَكَ أَمَرْتَهُ يَتَوَضَّأُ ثُمَّ سَكَتَّ عَنْهُ؟ فَقَالَ: " إِنَّهُ كَانَ يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ مُسْبِلٌ إِزَارَهُ وَإِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَا يَقْبَلُ صَلَاةَ رَجُلٍ مُسْبِلٍ إِزَارَهُ " " هَكَذَا رَوَاهُ أَبَانُ الْعَطَّارُ، عَنْ يَحْيَى وَخَالَفَهُ حَرْبُ بْنُ شَدَّادٍ فِي إِسْنَادِهِ فَرَوَاهُ.
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a man was praying with his waist-wrapper hanging below his ankles, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Go and perform ablution." The man went, performed ablution and came back, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go and perform ablution." The man went, performed ablution again and came back. Then a man asked him (peace and blessings be upon him): "O Prophet of Allah! Why did you order him to perform ablution and then remain silent about him?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He was praying with his waist-wrapper hanging below his ankles, and Allah Almighty does not accept the prayer of one who prays with his waist-wrapper hanging down."
كَمَا أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ، أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، ثنا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، ثنا ابْنُ رَجَاءٍ، ثنا حَرْبٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، أَنَّ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ الْمَدَنِيَّ، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ عَطَاءَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ: بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَجَعَلَ رَجُلٌ يُصَلِّي، فَقَالَ: لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " اذْهَبْ فَتَوَضَّأْ " فَتَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ عَادَ يُصَلِّي، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " اذْهَبْ فَتَوَضَّأْ " فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، مَا شَأْنُكَ أَمَرْتَهُ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ سَكَتَّ عَنْهُ؟ فَقَالَ: " إِنِّي إِنَّمَا أَمَرْتُهُ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ إِنَّهُ كَانَ مُسْبِلًا إِزَارَهُ وَلَا يَقْبَلُ اللهُ صَلَاةَ رَجُلٍ مُسْبِلٍ إِزَارَهُ " رَوَاهُ هِشَامُ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ الدَّسْتُوَائِيُّ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَدَّثَهُ، فَأَسْقَطَ مَنْ بَيْنَ يَحْيَى وَعَطَاءٍ.
Ata' bin Yasar (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that one of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with him) of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) narrated to him: Once we were sitting with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when a man came and began to pray, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Go and perform ablution." He performed ablution and then began praying again, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) again said to him: "Go and perform ablution." A man said: "O Messenger of Allah! What is the reason that you order him to perform ablution and then remain silent?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I told him to perform ablution only because he was praying with his waist-wrapper hanging below his ankles, and Allah Almighty does not accept the prayer of one who prays with his waist-wrapper hanging below his ankles."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ فُورَكٍ أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ثنا يُونُسُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، وَثَابِتٌ أَبُو زَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الْأَحْوَلِ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَفَعَهُ أَبُو عَوَانَةَ وَلَمْ يَرْفَعْهُ ثَابِتٌ أَنَّهُ رَأَى أَعْرَابِيًّا عَلَيْهِ شَمْلَةٌ قَدْ ذَيَّلَهَا وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَقَالَ: " إِنَّ الَّذِي يَجُرُّ ثَوْبَهُ مِنَ الْخُيَلَاءِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ لَيْسَ مِنَ اللهِ فِي حِلٍّ وَلَا حَرَامٍ " أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ السِّجِسْتَانِيُّ قَالَ: رَوَى هَذَا جِمَاعَةٌ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، مَوْقُوفًا عَلَى ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ مِنْهُمْ حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ وَحَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَأَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ وَأَبُومُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: وَفِي الْأَحَادِيثِ الثَّابِتَةِ الْمُطْلَقَةِ فِي النَّهْيِ عَنْ جَرِّ الْإِزَارِ دَلِيلٌ عَلَى كَرَاهِيَتِهِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَغَيْرِهَا.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he saw a Bedouin wearing a sheet who was praying with it hanging below his ankles, and he said: "Whoever lets his waist-wrapper hang below his ankles in prayer out of arrogance, for such a person Allah Almighty will neither make Paradise lawful nor Hell unlawful."
Imam Abu Dawud (may Allah have mercy on him) states that a group of narrators reported this hadith from Asim as mawquf (stopping) at Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him); among them are Hammad bin Salamah, Hammad bin Zayd, Abu al-Ahwas and Abu Mu'awiyah (may Allah have mercy on them).
The Imam says that the established, unqualified hadiths forbidding the trailing of the waist-wrapper are evidence that it is disliked (makruh), both in prayer and at other times.
