أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو طَاهِرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْأَشَجُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ. وَحَدَّثَنَا سَلْمُ بْنُ جُنَادَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
إِنَّ أَثْقَلَ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى الْمُنَافِقِينَ صَلَاةُ الْعِشَاءِ الْآخِرَةِ وَالْفَجْرِ، وَلَوْ يَعْلَمُونَ مَا فِيهِمَا لَأَتَوْهُمَا وَلَوْ حَبْوًا، وَإِنِّي لَأَهُمُّ أَنْ آمُرَ بِالصَّلَاةِ فَتُقَامَ، ثُمَّ آمُرَ رَجُلًا فَيُصَلِّيَ، ثُمَّ آخُذَ حُزَمَ النَّارِ فَأُحَرِّقَ عَلَى أُنَاسٍ يَتَخَلَّفُونَ عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ بُيُوتَهُمْ ". هَذَا حَدِيثُ ابْنِ نُمَيْرٍ. وَفِي حَدِيثِ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ: " لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ "، وَقَالَ: " ثُمَّ آمُرَ رَجُلًا فَيُصَلِّيَ بِالنَّاسِ ثُمَّ أَنْطَلِقَ مَعِي بِرِجَالٍ مَعَهُمْ حُزَمٌ مِنْ حَطَبٍ إِلَى قَوْمٍ لَا يَشْهَدُونَ الصَّلَاةَ، فَأُحَرِّقَ عَلَيْهِمْ بُيُوتَهُمْ بِالنَّارِ

✧ The heaviest prayer upon the hypocrites is the later 'Isha' prayer and Fajr. If they knew what is in them, they would come to them even if crawling. I was about to order that the prayer be established, then order a man to lead the prayer, then take bundles of fire and burn the houses of people who stay behind from the prayer. This is the hadith of Ibn Numayr. In the hadith of Abu Mu'awiyah he said: 'I was about to,' and he said: 'then order a man to lead the people in prayer, then go with men carrying bundles of firewood to a people who do not attend the prayer, and burn their houses with fire.'
