حَدَّثَنَا قُرَيْشُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ أَبْجَرَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ وَاصِلِ بْنِ حَيَّانَ قَالَ قَالَ

خَطَبَنَا عَمَّارٌ فَأَبْلَغَ وَأَوْجَزَ، فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ قُلْنَا: يَا أَبَا الْيَقْظَانِ، لَقَدْ أَبْلَغْتَ وَأَوْجَزْتَ، فَلَوْ كُنْتَ تَنَفَّسْتَ، قَالَ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: إِنَّ طُولَ صَلَاةِ الرَّجُلِ وَقِصَرَ خُطْبَتِهِ مَئِنَّةٌ مِنْ فِقْهِهِ، فَأَطِيلُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَأَقْصِرُوا الْخُطْبَةَ، فَإِنَّ مِنَ الْبَيَانِ سِحْرًا

✧ Ammar delivered a sermon to us and was both eloquent and concise. When he descended, we said: O Abu al-Yaqzan, you were indeed eloquent and concise, but if only you had drawn breath. He said: I heard the Messenger of God ﷺ say: A man's long prayer and short sermon are a sign of his understanding, so prolong the prayer and shorten the sermon, for some eloquence is sorcery.
