Praying in the Mosque

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ advised a man to pray two Rakah when he entered the mosque.

It was narrated that Jabir bin 'Abdullah said: "Sulaik Ghatafani entered the mosque when the Prophet was delivering the sermon. He said: 'Have you prayed?’ He said: 'No.’ He said: 'Then perform two Rak’ah.’"
حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، سَمِعَ جَابِرًا، وَأَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ دَخَلَ سُلَيْكٌ الْغَطَفَانِيُّ الْمَسْجِدَ وَالنَّبِيُّ ـ ـ يَخْطُبُ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ أَصَلَّيْتَ؟ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ: لاَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَصَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَأَمَّا عَمْرٌو فَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ سُلَيْكًا

This hadith is about the importance of praying in the mosque. It was narrated by Jabir bin 'Abdullah that Sulaik Ghatafani entered the mosque when the Prophet was delivering a sermon. He asked him if he had prayed and upon learning that he hadn't, advised him to perform two Rakahs. This hadith teaches us that it is important to pray in mosques as it is an act of worship and obedience towards Allah. It also shows us how kind and caring our beloved Prophet was towards others as he took time out from his sermon to remind this man of his religious obligations.
