(Book 8, Hadith 9) #35351
Praying with Congregation

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the importance of praying with the congregation even if one has already prayed.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from a man of the Bani'd-Dil called Busr ibn Mihjan from his father Mihjan that he was in a gathering with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and the call to prayer was made. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, rose and prayed and then returned. Mihjan remained sitting and did not pray with him. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "What prevented you from praying with the people? Aren't you a muslim?" He said, "Of course, Messenger of Allah, but I have already prayed with my family". The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "When you come, pray with the people, even if you have prayed already".
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، مِنْ بَنِي الدِّيلِ يُقَالُ لَهُ بُسْرُ بْنُ مِحْجَنٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، مِحْجَنٍ أَنَّهُ كَانَ فِي مَجْلِسٍ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأُذِّنَ بِالصَّلاَةِ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّى ثُمَّ رَجَعَ وَمِحْجَنٌ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ لَمْ يُصَلِّ مَعَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ‏"‏ مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ مَعَ النَّاسِ أَلَسْتَ بِرَجُلٍ مُسْلِمٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَلَكِنِّي قَدْ صَلَّيْتُ فِي أَهْلِي ‏.‏ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ‏"‏ إِذَا جِئْتَ فَصَلِّ مَعَ النَّاسِ وَإِنْ كُنْتَ قَدْ صَلَّيْتَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith emphasizes the importance of praying in congregation and how it is an obligation for all Muslims. It was narrated by Mihjan ibn Busr from his father who was present in a gathering with Prophet Muhammad ﷺ when the call to prayer was made. The Prophet ﷺ rose and prayed and then returned while Mihjan remained sitting without praying along with him. When asked why he did not pray along with everyone else, he replied that he had already prayed at home with his family. To this, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that when one comes to pray in congregation they should do so even if they have already prayed at home or elsewhere before coming to the mosque. This teaches us that we should prioritize praying in congregation over individual prayers as it carries more reward and blessings from Allah SWT than individual prayers do.
