Sunan Ibn Majah 794 (Book 4, Hadith 60) #30146
The Importance of Attending Congregations

SUMMARY: People should attend congregations regularly, otherwise Allah will seal their hearts and make them negligent.

Ibn 'Abbas and Ibn 'Umar narrated that: They heard the Prophet say on his pulpit: "People should desist from failing to attend the congregations, otherwise Allah will seal their hearts, and they will be among the negligent".
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ الدَّسْتَوَائِيِّ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ مِينَاءَ، أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، وَابْنُ، عُمَرَ أَنَّهُمَا سَمِعَا النَّبِيَّ ـ ـ يَقُولُ عَلَى أَعْوَادِهِ ‏ "‏ لَيَنْتَهِيَنَّ أَقْوَامٌ عَنْ وَدْعِهِمُ الْجَمَاعَاتِ أَوْ لَيَخْتِمَنَّ اللَّهُ عَلَى قُلُوبِهِمْ ثُمَّ لَيَكُونُنَّ مِنَ الْغَافِلِينَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of attending congregational prayers. It was narrated by Ibn 'Abbas and Ibn 'Umar that they heard the Prophet say on his pulpit that people should desist from failing to attend the congregations, otherwise Allah will seal their hearts, and they will be among the negligent. This means that if people do not attend congregational prayers regularly, then Allah will close their hearts to His guidance and mercy, making them neglectful of His commands. Therefore it is important for Muslims to make sure they are attending all five daily prayers in congregation as this is a way for them to stay connected with God's guidance and mercy. Additionally, it also serves as a reminder for Muslims to stay away from negligence in fulfilling their religious duties as this can lead to spiritual disconnection with God's grace.
