تَخْفِيفِ الإِمَامِ فِي الْقِيَامِ وَإِتْمَامِ الرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ

The imam keeping the standing short while completing the bowing and prostration

أَنَّ رَجُلاً، قَالَ وَاللَّهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لأَتَأَخَّرُ عَنْ صَلاَةِ الْغَدَاةِ مِنْ أَجْلِ فُلاَنٍ مِمَّا يُطِيلُ بِنَا. فَمَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي مَوْعِظَةٍ أَشَدَّ غَضَبًا مِنْهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ " إِنَّ مِنْكُمْ مُنَفِّرِينَ، فَأَيُّكُمْ مَا صَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ فَلْيَتَجَوَّزْ، فَإِنَّ فِيهِمُ الضَّعِيفَ وَالْكَبِيرَ وَذَا الْحَاجَةِ ".

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ قَيْسًا، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ،

Translation

Abu Mas'ud al-Ansari reported that a man said, “By Allah, O Messenger of Allah, I stay away from the morning prayer because of so-and-so, since he makes it so long for us.” I have never seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ angrier in an admonition than on that day. Then he said, “Among you are those who drive (people) away. So whoever of you leads the people in prayer, let him keep it brief, for among them are the weak, the old and the one who has some need.”

Abu Mas'ud al-Ansari berichtete, dass ein Mann sagte: „Bei Allah, o Gesandter Allahs, ich bleibe dem Morgengebet fern wegen Soundso, weil er es uns so lang macht.“ Ich habe den Gesandten Allahs ﷺ bei einer Ermahnung nie zorniger gesehen als an jenem Tag. Dann sagte er: „Unter euch sind welche, die (die Leute) abschrecken. Wer von euch also die Leute im Gebet leitet, der soll sich kurz fassen; denn unter ihnen sind der Schwache, der Alte und der, der ein Anliegen hat.“

Türkçe

Ebû Mes'ûd el-Ensârî (r.a.), bir adamın şöyle dediğini rivayet etti: “Allah'a yemin ederim ki ey Allah'ın Resûlü, falanca bize namazı uzattığı için sabah namazından geri kalıyorum.” Resûlullah'ı ﷺ hiçbir öğüt sırasında o günkünden daha öfkeli görmedim. Sonra şöyle buyurdu: “İçinizde (insanları) nefret ettirenler var. Hanginiz insanlara namaz kıldırırsa kısa tutsun; çünkü aralarında zayıf, yaşlı ve ihtiyaç sahibi olan vardır.”
