وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ، ثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْعَنْسِيِّ، حَدَّثَنِي زَيْدُ بْنُ رُفَيْعٍ، ثَنَا مَيْمُونُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ ؓ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
« صَلَاةُ الرَّجُلِ وَحْدَهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ تَعَالَى بِخَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ صَلَاةً، وَصَلَاتُهُ فِي رُفْقَتِهِ بِتِسْعِمِائَةِ صَلَاةٍ، وَصَلَاتُهُ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ بِتِسْعَةٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ أَلْفَ صَلَاةٍ
