حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْغَافِقِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ وَحَدِيثُ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ أَتَمُّ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزَّاهِرِيَّةِ عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ قُتَيْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي الزَّاهِرِيَّةِ عَنْ أَبِي شَجَرَةَ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ ابْنَ عُمَرَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ
أَقِيمُوا الصُّفُوفَ وَحَاذُوا بَيْنَ الْمَنَاكِبِ وَسُدُّوا الْخَلَلَ وَلِينُوا بِأَيْدِي إِخْوَانِكُمْ لَمْ يَقُلْ عِيسَى بِأَيْدِي إِخْوَانِكُمْ وَلاَ تَذَرُوا فُرُجَاتٍ لِلشَّيْطَانِ وَمَنْ وَصَلَ صَفًّا وَصَلَهُ اللَّهُ وَمَنْ قَطَعَ صَفًّا قَطَعَهُ اللَّهُ

The Prophet ﷺ said: Set the rows in order, stand shoulder to shoulder, close the gaps, be pliant in the hands of your brethren, and do not leave openings for the devil. If anyone joins up a row, Allah will join him up, but if anyone breaks a row, Allah will cut him off. Abu Dawud said: The name of Abu Shjrah is Kathir b. Murrah.
Notes
قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ أَبُو شَجَرَةَ كَثِيرُ بْنُ مُرَّةَ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَمَعْنَى وَلِينُوا بِأَيْدِي إِخْوَانِكُمْ إِذَا جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى الصَّفِّ فَذَهَبَ يَدْخُلُ فِيهِ فَيَنْبَغِي أَنْ يُلَيِّنَ لَهُ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ مَنْكِبَيْهِ حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ فِي الصَّفِّ
machine translationAbū Dāwūd said: Abū Shajarah is Kathīr b. Murrah. Abū Dāwūd said: The meaning of "and be gentle with the hands of your brothers" is that when a man comes to the row and goes to enter it, each man should soften his shoulders for him until he enters the row.
