مَا جَاءَ فِي فَرْضِ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ وَالْمُحَافَظَةِ عَلَيْهَا

حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْمِصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: فَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَلَى أُمَّتِي خَمْسِينَ صَلَاةً، فَرَجَعْتُ بِذَلِكَ حَتَّى آتِيَ عَلَى مُوسَى، فَقَالَ مُوسَى: مَاذَا افْتَرَضَ رَبُّكَ عَلَى أُمَّتِكَ؟، قُلْتُ: فَرَضَ عَلَيَّ خَمْسِينَ صَلَاةً، قَالَ: فَارْجِعْ إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّ أُمَّتَكَ لَا تُطِيقُ ذَلِكَ، فَرَاجَعْتُ رَبِّي، فَوَضَعَ عَنِّي شَطْرَهَا، فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى مُوسَى فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ: فَقَالَ: ارْجِعْ إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّ أُمَّتَكَ لَا تُطِيقُ ذَلِكَ، فَرَاجَعْتُ رَبِّي، فَقَالَ: هِيَ خَمْسٌ، وَهِيَ خَمْسُونَ، لَا يُبَدَّلُ الْقَوْلُ لَدَيَّ ، فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى مُوسَى، فَقَالَ: ارْجِعْ إِلَى رَبِّكَ، فَقُلْتُ: قَدِ اسْتَحْيَيْتُ مِنْ رَبِّي .

What was narrated concerning the five obligatory Prayers and performing them regularly

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Allah enjoined fifty prayers upon my nation, and I came back with that until I came to Musa. Musa said: ‘What has your Lord enjoined upon your nation?’ I said: ‘He has enjoined fifty prayers on me.’ He said: ‘Go back to your Lord, for your nation will not be able to do that.’ So I went back to my Lord, and He reduced it by half. I went back to Musa and told him, and he said: ‘Go back to your Lord, for your nation will not be able to do that.’ So I went back to my Lord, and He said: ‘They are five and they are fifty; My Word does not change.’ So I went back to Musa and he said: ‘Go back to your Lord.’ I said: ‘I feel shy before my Lord.’”
