Riyad as-Salihin — Hadith #38945

On the authority of Jaber bin Samurah, may God be pleased with them, he said: The people of Kufa complained to Sa`d, meaning: Ibn Abi Waqqas, may God be pleased with him, to Omar bin Al-Khattab, may God be pleased with him, so he removed him and appointed Ammar over them. They complained until they mentioned that he was not good at praying, so he sent for him and said: O Abu Ishaq, these people claim that you do not pray well, so he said: As for me, by God, I used to pray with them as the Messenger of God. May God’s prayers and peace be upon him, I will not break it On her authority, I prayed the evening prayer, and I was slow in the first two, and lighter in the other two. He said: That is my suspicion of you, Abu Ishaq, and he sent a man - or men - with him to Kufa to ask the people of Kufa about him, and he did not leave a mosque without asking about it, and they praised it kindly, until he entered a mosque of the Banu Abs, and a man among them, called Osama bin Qatada, nicknamed Abu Saada, stood up. He said: As for when you called for us, Saad was not walking. Confidentially, he does not swear equally, and he does not make amends The case, Saad said: Or, by God, I will pray for three things: O God, if this servant of yours is a liar, has established hypocrisy and reputation, prolonged his life, prolonged his poverty, and prolonged his exposure to temptation. And after that, when he was asked, he would say: An old, intrigued sheikh, Saad’s supplication has struck me. Abdul Malik bin Umair al-Rawi said on the authority of Jabir bin Samra: I saw him after his eyebrows had fallen over his eyes due to old age, and he was exposed to female slaves on the roads. He winks at them. ((Agreed On him)..
