حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِذَا كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ إِمَامًا، فَلْيُخَفِّفْ، فَإِنَّهُ يَقُومُ وَرَاءَهُ الضَّعِيفُ وَالْكَبِيرُ وَذُو الْحَاجَةِ، وَإِذَا صَلَّى لِنَفْسِهِ، فَلْيُطَوِّلْ مَا شَاءَ " (١)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: When you lead the prayer as an imam, then lead a light (short) prayer, because among the worshippers are the elderly, the weak, and the sick. However, when one prays alone, he may prolong it as much as he wishes.
