Sahih — Darussalam
What was narrated concerning prostrating a great deal
Ma’dan
bin Abu Talhah Al-Ya’muri said: “I met Thawban and said to
him:
‘Tell me a Hadith that Allah may benefit me thereby.’ But he
remained silent. Then I said the same and he remained silent. That
happened three times. Then he said to me: ‘You should prostrate to
Allah; for I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: “No one
prostrates to Allah but Allah will raise him one degree in status
thereby and will erase one of his sins.” Ma’dan said: “Then I
met Abu
Darda’ and asked him the same question, and he gave a
similar answer.”
What was narrated concerning prostrating a great deal
It was
narrated from ‘Ubadah bin Samit that he heard the Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ) say: “No one prostrates to Allah but Allah will record
one
Hasanah (good reward) for him, and will erase thereby one bad
deed and
raise him in status one degree. So prostrate a great deal.”
حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْمُرِّيِّ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ بْنِ حَلْبَسٍ عَنِ الصُّنَابِحِيِّ عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَقُولُ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يَسْجُدُ لِلَّهِ سَجْدَةً إِلاَّ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ بِهَا حَسَنَةً وَمَحَا عَنْهُ بِهَا سَيِّئَةً وَرَفَعَ لَهُ بِهَا دَرَجَةً فَاسْتَكْثِرُوا مِنَ السُّجُودِ
Hadith 1425
Da’if — Darussalam
The first thing for which a person will be called to account will be his Prayers
It was
narrated that Anas bin Hakim Dabbi said: “Abu Hurairah said to
me:
‘When you go to your country, tell them that I heard the Messenger
of Allah (ﷺ) say: “The first thing for which the Muslim will be
brought to account on the Day of Resurrection will be the prescribed
prayers. If they are complete, all well and good, otherwise it will
be
said: ‘Look and see whether he has any voluntary prayers.’ If
he has
any voluntary prayers, his prescribed prayers will be
completed from
his voluntary prayers. Then the same will be done with
regard to all
his obligatory deeds.”
The first thing for which a person will be called to account will be his Prayers
It was
narrated from Tamim Dari that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “The
first
thing for which a person will be brought to account on the Day
of
Resurrection will be his prayer. If it is complete, then the
voluntary (prayers) will also be recorded for him (as an increase).
If
it is not complete then Allah will say to His angels: ‘Look and
see
whether you find any voluntary prayers for My slave, and take
them to
make up what is lacking from his obligatory prayers.’ Then
all his
deeds will be reckoned in like manner.”
