وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي فَرْوَةَ: يَزِيدَ بْنِ سِنَانٍ، ثَنَا أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ الْحَاجِبُ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ شَيْخًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ يَقُولُ: قَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ ؓ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:

إِنَّ لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ أَنَفَةً، وَإِنَّ أَنَفَةَ الصَّلَاةِ: التَّكْبِيرَةُ الْأُولَى، فَحَافِظُوا عَلَيْهَا
