أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ السَّرْحِ عَنِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي اللَّيْثُ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ

لَيَنْتَهِيَنَّ أَقْوَامٌ عَنْ رَفْعِ أَبْصَارِهِمْ عِنْدَ الدُّعَاءِ فِي الصَّلاَةِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ أَوْ لَتُخْطَفَنَّ أَبْصَارُهُمْ

  • أبو زرعة الرازي

    الناس يروون عن جعفر بن ربيعة عن الأعرج عن أبي هريرة عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ولا يذكرون مع الأعرج عراك وروى يحيى بن بكير وحده هكذا

    machine translationPeople narrate it from Jaʿfar b. Rabīʿah, from al-Aʿraj, from Abū Hurayrah, from the Prophet ﷺ, and they do not mention ʿIrāk together with al-Aʿraj. Yaḥyā b. Bukayr alone narrated it in this way.
