قَالَ أَحْمَدُ فِي الزُّهْدِ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، ثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَرَبِيٍّ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ لَا أَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا سَعِيدًا الْأَزْرَقَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ وَاسِعٍ قَالَ:

رَأَى أُوَيْسٌ ؓ رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي يَقُومُ وَيَقْعُدُ، فَقَالَ: مَا لَكَ ؟ قَالَ: أَقُومُ فَيَجِيءُ الشَّيْطَانُ، فَيَقُولُ: إِنَّكَ تُرَائِي، فَأَجْلِسُ، ثُمَّ تُنَازِعُنِي نَفْسِي إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَأَقُومُ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: إِنَّكَ تُرَائِي، فَأَجْلِسُ. قَالَ: لَوْ خَلَوْتَ كُنْتَ تُصَلِّي هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ. قَالَ: صَلِّ، فَلَسْتَ بِمُرَاءٍ

✧ Uways ؓ saw a man praying, standing and sitting. He said: "What is the matter with you?" He said: "I stand, and Satan comes and says: 'You are showing off,' so I sit. Then my soul urges me to pray, so I stand, and he says: 'You are showing off,' so I sit." He said: "If you were alone, would you pray this prayer?" He said: "Yes." He said: "Then pray, for you are not showing off."
