( حَدَّثَنَاهُ ) أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ: عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ، أَنْبَأَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ الْقَطَّانُ، ثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ، ثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي بُكَيْرٍ، ثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ؓ: أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ:
أَلَا أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى شَيْءٍ يُكَفِّرُ اللهُ بِهِ الْخَطَايَا وَيَزِيدُ بِهِ فِي الْحَسَنَاتِ ؟ ". قَالُوا: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: " إِسْبَاغُ الْوُضُوءِ عِنْدَ الْمَكَارِهِ، وَكَثْرَةُ الْخُطَا إِلَى هَذِهِ الْمَسَاجِدِ، وَانْتِظَارُ الصَّلَاةِ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ، مَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ رَجُلٍ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ مُتَطَهِّرًا، فَيُصَلِّي مَعَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ الصَّلَاةَ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ، ثُمَّ يَقْعُدُ فِي هَذَا الْمَسْجِدِ يَنْتَظِرُ الصَّلَاةَ الْأُخْرَى إِلَّا أَنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تَقُولُ: اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ، اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْهُ. فَإِذَا قُمْتُمْ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَاعْدِلُوا صُفُوفَكُمْ وَأَقِيمُوهَا، وَسُدُّوا الْفُرَجَ، فَإِنِّي أَرَاكُمْ مِنْ وَرَاءِ ظَهْرِي، فَإِذَا قَالَ إِمَامُكُمُ: اللهُ أَكْبَرُ فَقُولُوا: اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، وَإِذَا رَكَعَ فَارْكَعُوا، وَإِذَا قَالَ: سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ فَقُولُوا: اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ، وَإِنَّ خَيْرَ صُفُوفِ الرِّجَالِ الْمُقَدَّمُ، وَشَرَّهَا الْمُؤَخَّرُ، وَخَيْرَ صُفُوفِ النِّسَاءِ الْمُؤَخَّرُ، وَشَرَّهَا الْمُقَدَّمُ، يَا مَعْشَرَ النِّسَاءِ إِذَا سَجَدَ الرِّجَالُ فَاخْفِضْنَ أَبْصَارَكُنَّ، لَا تَرَيْنَ عَوْرَاتِ الرِّجَالِ مِنْ ضِيقِ الْأُزُرِ

"Shall I not direct you to something by which Allah expiates sins and increases good deeds?" They said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said: "Performing the ablution thoroughly despite difficulties, taking many steps to these mosques, and waiting for the prayer after the prayer. There is no man among you who goes out from his house in a state of purity, then prays the prayer in congregation with the Muslims, then sits in this mosque waiting for the next prayer, except that the angels say: O Allah, forgive him; O Allah, have mercy on him. So when you stand for prayer, straighten your rows and establish them, and close the gaps, for I see you from behind my back. When your imam says: Allahu akbar, then say: Allahu akbar; when he bows, then bow; and when he says: Sami'a Allahu liman hamidah, then say: O Allah, our Lord, to You belongs all praise. The best of the rows of men is the first, and the worst of them is the last; and the best of the rows of women is the last, and the worst of them is the first. O company of women, when the men prostrate, lower your gaze, so that you do not see the private parts of the men because of the tightness of the waist-wrappers."

هو حديث يرويه الحارث بن عبد الرحمن بن أبي ذباب واختلف عنه فرواه صفوان بن عيسى عن الحارث عن سعيد بن المسيب عن علي وخالفه أبو ضمرة فرواه عن الحارث بن عبد الرحمن عن أبي العباس عن سعيد بن المسيب عن علي ورواه محمد بن فليح عن الحارث عن أبي العباس وروى هذا الحديث عبد الله بن محمد بن عقيل عن سعيد بن المسيب فأسنده عن أبي سعيد الخدري وكلاهما ضعيفان
machine translationIt is a hadith narrated by al-Ḥārith b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Abī Dhubāb, and there is disagreement about it from him. Ṣafwān b. ʿĪsā narrated it from al-Ḥārith, from Saʿīd b. al-Musayyab, from ʿAlī. Abū Ḍamrah contradicted him and narrated it from al-Ḥārith b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, from Abū al-ʿAbbās, from Saʿīd b. al-Musayyab, from ʿAlī. Muḥammad b. Fulayḥ narrated it from al-Ḥārith, from Abū al-ʿAbbās. ʿAbdullāh b. Muḥammad b. ʿAqīl also narrated this hadith from Saʿīd b. al-Musayyab and traced it back through a chain to Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī, and both are weak (ḍaʿīf).

وحديث علي بن أبي طالب قال صلى الله عليه وسلم إسباغ الوضوء على المكاره وإعمال الأقدام إلى المساجد وانتظار الصلاة بعد الصلاة يغسل الخطايا غسلا رواه ابن زنجويه من حديث الحارث بن عبد الرحمن بن أبي ذباب عن أبي العباس عن ابن المسيب عنه وقال الدارقطني ورواه عبد الله بن محمد بن عقيل عن ابن المسيب فأسنده عن أبي سعيد الخدري وكلاهما ضعيفان وقال البزار هكذا رواه صفوان عن الحارث عن سعيد
machine translationThe hadith of ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib: the Prophet ﷺ said: "Performing the ablution thoroughly despite disagreeable circumstances, taking steps toward the mosques, and waiting for prayer after prayer wash away sins entirely." Ibn Zanjawayh narrated it from the hadith of al-Ḥārith b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Abī Dhubāb, from Abū al-ʿAbbās, from Ibn al-Musayyab, from him. Al-Dāraquṭnī said: ʿAbdullāh b. Muḥammad b. ʿAqīl narrated it from Ibn al-Musayyab and traced it back through a chain to Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī, and both are weak (ḍaʿīf). Al-Bazzār said: Ṣafwān narrated it in this way from al-Ḥārith, from Saʿīd.

أيهما أصح قال هذا من تخاليط ابن عقيل من سوء حفظه مرة يقول هكذا ومرة يقول هكذا لا يضبط الصحيح أيما هو
machine translationWhich of the two is more authentic? He said: This is from the confusions (takhālīṭ) of Ibn ʿAqīl, due to his poor memory; at times he says it like this and at times like that. He does not firmly retain which one is the correct one.
