أَخْبَرَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ الْحَارِثِ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي الأَشْعَثِ الصَّنْعَانِيِّ عَنْ أَوْسِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ الثَّقَفِيِّ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ
مَنْ غَسَّلَ وَاغْتَسَلَ وَابْتَكَرَ وَغَدَا وَدَنَا مِنَ الإِمَامِ وَأَنْصَتَ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَلْغُ كَانَ لَهُ بِكُلِّ خُطْوَةٍ كَأَجْرِ سَنَةٍ صِيَامِهَا وَقِيَامِهَا
