English Translation

It was narrated from Ibn Mas'ud (رضي الله عنه) — via Bahz, from Hammam, from Qatada, from Muwarriq, from Abi al-Ahwas al-Jushami — that the Prophet ﷺ used to rate the prayer in congregation above the prayer of a man alone by twenty-five prayers — each one equal to his prayer [in reward].
