حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا مَهْدِيٌّ، حَدَّثَنَا وَاصِلٌ الْأَحْدَبُ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ، أَنَّهُ رَأَى رَجُلًا لَا يُتِمُّ رُكُوعًا وَلَا سُجُودًا، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ دَعَاهُ حُذَيْفَةُ فَقَالَ لَهُ: " مُنْذُ كَمْ صَلَّيْتَ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ؟ "، قَالَ: قَدْ صَلَّيْتُهَا مُنْذُ كَذَا وَكَذَا، فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ: " مَا صَلَّيْتَ ـ أَوْ قَالَ: مَا صَلَّيْتَ لِلَّهِ صَلَاةً "، شَكَّ مَهْدِيٌّ ـ وَأَحْسِبُهُ، ، قَالَ: " وَلَوْ مُتَّ مُتَّ عَلَى غَيْرِ سُنَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " (١)،

Zaid bin Wahb narrates that once Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) entered the mosque and saw that near the doors of Kindah, a man was praying. He was not performing the bowing (ruku) and prostration (sajdah) properly. When he finished the prayer, Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) asked him, "Since when have you been praying like this?" He replied, "For forty years." Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "You have not prayed a single prayer in forty years, and if you were to depart from this world with this prayer, you would not die upon the nature (fitrah) which was granted to the Noble Prophet (ﷺ)."
