حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عُمَيْسٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَلِيَّ بْنَ الْأَقْم

Body (Matn)

َرِ يَذْكُرُ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يَلْقَى اللَّهَ غَدًا مُسْلِمًا فَلْيُحَافِظْ عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ الصَّلَوَاتِ حَيْثُ يُنَادَى بِهِنَّ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ شَرَعَ لِنَبِيِّكُمْ سُنَنَ الْهُدَى وَإِنَّهُنَّ مِنْ سُنَنِ الْهُدَى وَلَوْ أَنَّكُمْ صَلَّيْتُمْ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ كَمَا يُصَلِّي هَذَا الْمُتَخَلِّفُ فِي بَيْتِهِ لَتَرَكْتُمْ سُنَّةَ نَبِيِّكُمْ وَلَوْ أَنَّكُمْ تَرَكْتُمْ سُنَّةَ نَبِيِّكُمْ لَضَلَلْتُمْ وَمَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ يَتَطَهَّرُ فَيُحْسِنُ الطُّهُورَ ثُمَّ يَعْمِدُ إِلَى مَسْجِدٍ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْمَسَاجِدِ إِلَّا كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ بِكُلِّ خُطْوَةٍ يَخْطُوهَا حَسَنَةً وَيَرْفَعُ لَهُ بِهَا دَرَجَةً وَيَحُطُّ عَنْهُ بِهَا سَيِّئَةً وَلَوْ رَأَيْتُنَا وَمَا يَتَخَلَّفُ عَنْهَا إِلَّا مُنَافِقٌ مَعْلُومُ النِّفَاقِ وَلَقَدْ كَانَ الرَّجُلُ يُؤْتَى بِهِ يُهَادَى بَيْنَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ حَتَّى يُقَامَ فِي الصَّفِّ

English Translation

Abu Nu'aym narrated to us, Abu 'Umays narrated to us, he said: I heard 'Ali ibn al-Aqmar mentioning from Abu al-Ahwas, from 'Abdullah who said: 'Whoever wishes to meet Allah tomorrow as a Muslim, let him guard these five prayers when the call is made for them, for indeed Allah has prescribed for your Prophet the ways of guidance, and they (the prayers) are from the ways of guidance. If you were to pray in your homes as this man who stays behind prays in his home, you would have abandoned the Sunnah of your Prophet. And if you abandoned the Sunnah of your Prophet, you would have gone astray.'
