The Importance of Praying Properly

SUMMARY: A man entered the Masjid and performed Salat while the Prophet ﷺ was sitting at the back of the Masjid. The Prophet ﷺ then told him to go back and pray again as he had not prayed properly.

Narrated Abu Hurairah: "A man enter the Masjid and performed Salat while the Messenger of Allah was sitting at the back of the Masjid. Then he came to greet him, so the Prophet said: "Wa Alaikum (and upon you); go back and pray for indeed you have not prayed'." And he mentioned the Hadith in its entirety.
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ دَخَلَ رَجُلٌ الْمَسْجِدَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ جَالِسٌ فِي نَاحِيَةِ الْمَسْجِدِ فَصَلَّى ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ وَعَلَيْكَ ارْجِعْ فَصَلِّ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ ‏.‏ وَرَوَى يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانُ هَذَا عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ فَقَالَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ ‏"‏ وَعَلَيْكَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَحَدِيثُ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ أَصَحُّ
