أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ قَالَ

صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الصُّبْحَ فَقَالَ «أَشَاهِدٌ فُلَانٌ؟ » قَالُوا لَا فَقَالَ «أَشَاهِدٌ فُلَانٌ؟ » قَالُوا لَا قَالَ «إِنَّ هَاتَيْنِ الصَّلَاتَيْنِ أَثْقَلُ الصَّلَوَاتِ عَلَى الْمُنَافِقِينَ وَلَوْ يَعْلَمُونَ فَضْلَ مَا فِيهِمَا لَأَتَوْهُمَا وَلَوْ حَبْوًا وَإِنَّ الصَّفَّ الْأَوَّلَ لَعَلَى مِثْلِ صَفِّ الْمَلَائِكَةِ وَلَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ فَضِيلَتَهُ لَابْتَدَرْتُمُوهُ وَصَلَاةُ الرَّجُلِ مَعَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ أَزْكَى مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ مَعَ رَجُلٍ وَكُلَّمَا كَثُرَ فَهُوَ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ»

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in the morning prayer and said: "Is so-and-so present?" They said: No. He said: "Is so-and-so present?" They said: No. He said: "These two prayers are the heaviest prayers for the hypocrites. If they knew the virtue 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. A man's prayer with two men is purer than his prayer with one man, and the more (the number), the more beloved to Allah."
