(Book 15, Hadith 46) #35567
The Prayer of Hypocrites

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the prayer of hypocrites and how it is not accepted by Allah.

Yahya related to me from Malik that al-Ala ibn Abd ar-Rahman said, "We visited Anas ibn Malik after dhuhr and he stood up and prayed asr. When he had finished his prayer, we mentioned doing prayers early in their time, or he mentioned it, and he said that he had heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, the prayer of the hypocrites, the prayer of the hypocrites, the prayer of the hypocrites is that one of them sits until the sun becomes yellow and is between the horns of Shaytan, or on the horn of Shaytan, and then gets up and rattles off four rakahs, hardly remembering Allah in them at all'. "
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ دَخَلْنَا عَلَى أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ بَعْدَ الظُّهْرِ فَقَامَ يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنْ صَلاَتِهِ ذَكَرْنَا تَعْجِيلَ الصَّلاَةِ أَوْ ذَكَرَهَا فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ يَجْلِسُ أَحَدُهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا اصْفَرَّتِ الشَّمْسُ وَكَانَتْ بَيْنَ قَرْنَىِ الشَّيْطَانِ - أَوْ عَلَى قَرْنِ الشَّيْطَانِ - قَامَ فَنَقَرَ أَرْبَعًا لاَ يَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ فِيهَا إِلاَّ قَلِيلاً

QUICK LESSONS:
Remembering Allah during your prayers

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the prayer of hypocrites and how it is not accepted by Allah. It was narrated by Yahya from Malik that al-Ala ibn Abd ar-Rahman said that he heard the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ say that a hypocrite's prayer is one in which they wait until the sun becomes yellow and sits between or on the horns of Shaytan before getting up to pray four rakahs without remembering Allah in them at all. This shows us that we should be mindful when we are praying and make sure to remember Allah during our prayers as this will be more pleasing to Him. We should also try our best not to delay our prayers as this can lead us into hypocrisy which will result in our prayers being rejected by Allah.
