Hadith: Arabic Text followed by English Translation.
وعن أبى مسعود عقبة بن عمرو البدرى رضي الله عنه قال:
جاء رجل إلى النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقال: إنى لأتأخر عن صلاة الصبح من أجل فلان مما يطيل بنا! فما رأيت النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم غضب في موعظة قط أشد مما غضب يومئذ، فقال: “يا أيها الناس: إن منكم منفرين، فأيكم أم الناس فليوجز، فإن من ورائه الكبير والصغير وذا الحاجة
متفق عليه، أخرجه البخاري ٧٠٤ و مسلم ٤٦٦
Abu Mas’ud ‘Uqbah bin ‘Amr Al-Badri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
A man came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said:
“I join the morning Salat late because of so-and-so who leads it and prolongs it.”
(Abu Mas’ud said):
I have never seen the Prophet (ﷺ) so angry while giving a speech as he was on that day.
He (ﷺ) said,
“Some of you create hatred among the people against faith. Whoever leads Salat (the prayer), should make it brief because the congregation includes old men and youngsters and those who have some urgent work to do.”
