حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ قَالَ
صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْفَجْرَ، فَلَمَّا صَلَّى قَالَ: " شَاهِدٌ فُلَانٌ؟ "فَسَكَتَ الْقَوْمُ، قَالُوا: نَعَمْ، وَلَمْ يَحْضُرْ. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنَّ أَثْقَلَ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى الْمُنَافِقِينَ صَلَاةُ الْعِشَاءِ وَالْفَجْرِ، وَلَوْ يَعْلَمُونَ مَا فِيهِمَا لَأَتَوْهُمَا وَلَوْ حَبْوًا، وَإِنَّ الصَّفَّ الْأَوَّلَ عَلَى مِثْلِ صَفِّ الْمَلَائِكَةِ، وَلَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ فَضِيلَتَهُ لَابْتَدَرْتُمُوهُ، إِنَّ صَلَاتَكَ مَعَ رَجُلَيْنِ أَزْكَى مِنْ صَلَاتِكَ مَعَ رَجُلٍ، وَصَلَاتَكَ مَعَ رَجُلٍ أَزْكَى مِنْ صَلَاتِكَ وَحْدَكَ، وَمَا كَثُرَ فَهُوَ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللهِ [تَعَالَى]

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed the dawn prayer. When he finished, he said: "Is so-and-so present?" The people fell silent. They said: Yes, but he is not present. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The heaviest prayers for the hypocrites are the evening prayer and the dawn prayer. If they knew what is in them, they would come to them even crawling. The first row is like the row of the angels. If you knew its virtue, you would race to it. Your prayer with two men is purer than your prayer with one man, and your prayer with one man is purer than your prayer alone. The more people, the more beloved it is to Allah [Exalted].

كان أبو إسحاق واسع الحديث يحتمل أن يكون سمع من أبي بصير وسمع من ابن أبي بصير عن أبي بصير وسمع من العيزار عن أبي بصير قال أبي سمعت سليمان بن حرب قال أخبرني وهب بن جرير قال قال شعبة أبو إسحاق قد سمع من عبد الله بن أبي بصير ومن أبي بصير كلاهما هذا الحديث
machine translationAbū Isḥāq had a wide range of hadith. It is possible that he heard from Abū Baṣīr, that he heard from Ibn Abī Baṣīr from Abū Baṣīr, and that he heard from al-ʿAyzār from Abū Baṣīr. My father said: I heard Sulaymān b. Ḥarb say: Wahb b. Jarīr informed me, he said: Shuʿbah said: Abū Isḥāq heard this hadith from both ʿAbdullāh b. Abī Baṣīr and from Abū Baṣīr.
