Hadith #46214
وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم :
"صلاة الرجل في جماعة تُضعَّف على صلاته في بيته وفي سوقه خمسًا وعشرين ضعفًا، وذلك أنه إذا توضأ فأحسن الوضوء، ثم خرج إلى المسجد، لا يخرجه إلا الصلاة، لم يخطُ خطوة إلا رفعت له بها درجة، وحطت عنه بها خطيئة، فإذا صلى لم تزل الملائكة تصلي عليه ما دام في مصلاه، ما لم يحدث، تقول اللهم صلِّ عليه، اللهم ارحمه. ولا يزال في صلاة ما انتظر الصلاة" ((متفق عليه. وهذا لفظ البخاري))
On the authority of Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him, he said: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “A man’s prayer in congregation is multiplied twenty-five times over his prayer in his home and in his market, and that is because if he performs ablution and performs it well, then goes out to the mosque, nothing takes him out except for prayer. He does not take a step without his being raised in rank and a sin removed from him because of it. So if he prays, the angels continue to pray over him as long as he is in his place of prayer. It didn't happen, she says, O God, pray On him, O God, have mercy on him. He continues to pray as long as he waits for prayer.” (Agreed upon. This is Al-Bukhari’s wording.)
