Chapter 10 · Call to Prayers (Adhaan)فَضْلِ الْعِشَاءِ فِي الْجَمَاعَةِ
The virtue of the Isha prayer in congregation
قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " لَيْسَ صَلاَةٌ أَثْقَلَ عَلَى الْمُنَافِقِينَ مِنَ الْفَجْرِ وَالْعِشَاءِ، وَلَوْ يَعْلَمُونَ مَا فِيهِمَا لأَتَوْهُمَا وَلَوْ حَبْوًا، لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ آمُرَ الْمُؤَذِّنَ فَيُقِيمَ، ثُمَّ آمُرَ رَجُلاً يَؤُمُّ النَّاسَ، ثُمَّ آخُذَ شُعَلاً مِنْ نَارٍ فَأُحَرِّقَ عَلَى مَنْ لاَ يَخْرُجُ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ بَعْدُ ".

حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ
Translation
Abu Hurairah reported that the Prophet ﷺ said, “No prayer is heavier upon the hypocrites than the Fajr prayer and the Isha prayer. If they knew what is in them, they would come to them even if crawling. I was about to order the caller to prayer to call the iqamah, then to order a man to lead the people in prayer, and then to take flames of fire and burn (the houses) upon those who still do not come out to the prayer after that.”

Abu Huraira berichtete, dass der Prophet ﷺ sagte: „Kein Gebet ist für die Heuchler schwerer als das Morgengebet und das Nachtgebet. Wüssten sie, was in beiden liegt, so würden sie zu beiden kommen, und sei es kriechend. Ich hatte schon vor, dem Gebetsrufer zu befehlen, die Iqama zu rufen, dann einem Mann zu befehlen, den Leuten vorzubeten, dann Feuerbrände zu nehmen und (die Häuser) über denen zu verbrennen, die danach (noch) nicht zum Gebet herauskommen.“

Ebû Hüreyre (r.a.), Nebî'nin ﷺ şöyle buyurduğunu rivayet etti: “Münafıklara sabah ve yatsı namazından daha ağır gelen bir namaz yoktur. Bu ikisinde ne (sevap) olduğunu bilselerdi, emekleyerek de olsa onlara gelirlerdi. Andolsun, müezzine emredip kamet getirmesini, sonra bir adama emredip insanlara imam olmasını, sonra da ateşten meşaleler alıp bundan sonra hâlâ namaza çıkmayanları (evleriyle birlikte) yakmayı düşündüm.”
