( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ صَالِحِ بْنِ هَانِئٍ، ثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْبَيْهَقِيُّ، ثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْجَعْدِ، أَنْبَأَ شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ أَبِي النَّضْرِ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ حَمَلَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ:
أَنَّهُ رَأَى رَجُلًا لَا يُتِمُّ رُكُوعَهُ وَلَا سُجُودَهُ فَأَتَاهُ، فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ فَقَالَ: لَا تَشَبَّهُوا بِهَذَا، وَلَا بِأَمْثَالِهِ، إِنَّهُ لَا صَلَاةَ إِلَّا بِأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ، فَإِنْ كُنْتَ خَلْفَ إِمَامٍ فَاقْرَأْ فِي نَفْسِكَ، وَإِنْ كُنْتَ وَحْدَكَ فَأَسْمِعْ أُذُنَيْكَ، وَلَا تُؤْذِي مَنْ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ، وَمَنْ عَنْ يَسَارِكَ

That he saw a man who was not completing his bowing or his prostration, so he came to him, took him by the hand, and said: "Do not imitate this man, nor those like him. There is no prayer except with the Mother of the Book. If you are behind an imam, then recite to yourself, and if you are alone, then let your ears hear it, and do not harm those on your right or those on your left."
