حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَجْلَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ خَلَّادٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ، وَكَانَ بَدْرِيًّا قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَدَخَلَ رَجُلٌ، فَصَلَّى (١) فِي نَاحِيَةِ الْمَسْجِدِ، فَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَرْمُقُهُ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ: " ارْجِعْ فَصَلِّ، فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ " فَرَجَعَ فَصَلَّىَ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ: " ارْجِعْ فَصَلِّ، فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ " (٢) قَالَ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا، فَقَالَ لَهُ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ أَوْ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ: وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ،، ، لَقَدْ أَجْهَدْتُ نَفْسِي، فَعَلِّمْنِي وَأَرِنِي، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِذَا أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ فَتَوَضَّأْ فَأَحْسِنْ وُضُوءَكَ، ثُمَّ اسْتَقْبِلِ الْقِبْلَةَ، ثُمَّ كَبِّرْ، ثُمَّ اقْرَأْ، ثُمَّ ارْكَعْ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ رَاكِعًا، ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ قَائِمًا، ثُمَّ اسْجُدْ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ سَاجِدًا، ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ جَالِسًا، ثُمَّ اسْجُدْ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ سَاجِدًا، ثُمَّ قُمْ، فَإِذَا أَتْمَمْتَ صَلَاتَكَ عَلَى هَذَا فَقَدْ أَتْمَمْتَهَا، وَمَا انْتَقَصْتَ مِنْ هَذَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ، فَإِنَّمَا تُنْقِصُهُ مِنْ صَلَاتِكَ " (١)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Rifa’ah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) was sitting in the mosque when a man came and began to pray near the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). After finishing the prayer, he came to the service of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ), so the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, "Repeat your prayer, for you have not prayed properly." He went away and prayed again as he had done before, then returned. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) again said to him, "Repeat your prayer, for you have not prayed properly." He said, "O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), teach me how to pray." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When you face the Qiblah, say Allahu Akbar, then recite Surah Al-Fatihah and with it whatever Surah you wish. When you bow (ruku’), place your palms on your knees, straighten your back, and make your ruku’ well-balanced. When you raise your head from ruku’, straighten your back until all the bones return to their joints. And when you prostrate (sajdah), do it well, and stand up straight. If you complete your prayer in this manner, you have performed it perfectly, and if you are negligent in any of these things, your prayer is incomplete."
