"عن ثابت بن الحجاج قال: خَرجَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَاسْتَقْبَلَ النَّاسَ فَأَمَرَ الْمُؤَذِّنَ فَأَقَامَ وَقَالَ: وَاللَّه لَا نَنْتظِرُ بصَلَاتِنَا أَحَدَا، فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ ثُمَّ قَالَ: مَا بَالُ أَقْوَامٍ يتَخَلَّفُونَ، يَتَخَلَّفُ بِتَخَلُّفِهِمْ آخَرُونَ؟ ! وَاللَّه لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ أَرْسِلَ إلَيْهِمْ فَيُجَأُ فِى أَعْنَاقِهِمْ ثُمَّ يُقَالُ: اشْهَدُوا الصَّلَاةَ".

"Narrated from Tharabit ibn al-Hajjaj: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab went out to the prayer and met the people. He ordered the muezzin, and he gave the iqamah. He said: 'By Allah, we will not wait for anyone for our prayer.' When he finished his prayer, he turned to the people and said: 'What is the matter with people who lag behind, so that others lag behind because of their lagging? By Allah, I have resolved to send to them and have their necks stabbed, then it will be said: Attend the prayer.'"
