Encouragement towards Righteousness (effacing minor sins) #8 WALKING TOWARDS THE MASJID: Narrated a person from the Ansaar: Sa`eed ibn al-Musayyab said: An Ansaaree was breathing his last. He said: I narrate to you a tradition, and I narrate it with the intention of getting a reward from Allaah. I heard the Messenger of Allaah صلى الله عليه وسلم say: إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَأَحْسَنَ الْوُضُوءَ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ لَمْ يَرْفَعْ قَدَمَهُ الْيُمْنَى إِلَّا كَتَبَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ حَسَنَةً، وَلَمْ يَضَعْ قَدَمَهُ الْيُسْرَى إِلَّا حَطَّ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَنْهُ سَيِّئَةً فَلْيُقَرِّبْ أَحَدُكُمْ أَوْ لِيُبَعِّدْ فَإِنْ أَتَى الْمَسْجِدَ، فَصَلَّى فِي جَمَاعَةٍ غُفِرَ لَهُ، فَإِنْ أَتَى الْمَسْجِدَ وَقَدْ صَلَّوْا بَعْضًا وَبَقِيَ بَعْضٌ صَلَّى مَا أَدْرَكَ وَأَتَمَّ مَا بَقِيَ كَانَ كَذَلِكَ، فَإِنْ أَتَى الْمَسْجِدَ وَقَدْ صَلَّوْا فَأَتَمَّ الصَّلَاةَ كَانَ كَذَلِكَ “If any one of you performs ablution and performs it very well, and goes out for prayer, he does not take his right step but Allaah records a good work (or blessing) for him, and he does not take his left step but Allaah remits one sin from him. Any one of you may reside near the Masjid or far from it; if he comes to the Masjid and prays in congregation, he will be forgiven (by Allaah). If he comes to the Masjid while the people had prayed in part, and the prayer remained in part, and he prays in congregation the part he joined, and completed the part he had missed, he will enjoy similarly (i.e. he will be forgiven). If he comes to the Masjid when the people had finished prayer, he will enjoy the same.” [Sunan Abu Dawood (563) and graded as “Saheeh” by Shaikh al-Albaanee]
