Musnad Ahmad 6883

Translation

✧ I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about a man's prayer while sitting, and he said, "It is half of his prayer standing." He said: And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw people performing ablution and not completing it, so he said, "Complete — meaning the ablution — woe to the heels from the Fire!" or "the ankle-bones."
