Sahih Muslim 503b (Book 4, Hadith 282) #8287
Prayer with the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) leading people in prayer and how Bilal was helping him.

Abu Juhaifa reported on the authority of his father: I saw the Messenger of Allah (in Mecca at al-Abtah) in a red leather tent. and I saw Bilal take the ablution water (left by Allah's Messenger), and I saw the people racing, with one another to get that ablution water. If anyone got some of it, he rubbed himself with it, and anyone who did not get any got some of the moisture from his companion's hand. I then saw Bilal take a staff and fix it in the ground, after which the Messenger of Allah came out quickly in a red mantle and led the people in two rak'ahs facing the staff, and I saw people and animals passing in front of the staff.
حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَوْنُ بْنُ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ، رَأَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فِي قُبَّةٍ حَمْرَاءَ مِنْ أَدَمٍ وَرَأَيْتُ بِلاَلاً أَخْرَجَ وَضُوءًا فَرَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ يَبْتَدِرُونَ ذَلِكَ الْوَضُوءَ فَمَنْ أَصَابَ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا تَمَسَّحَ بِهِ وَمَنْ لَمْ يُصِبْ مِنْهُ أَخَذَ مِنْ بَلَلِ يَدِ صَاحِبِهِ ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ بِلاَلاً أَخْرَجَ عَنَزَةً فَرَكَزَهَا وَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فِي حُلَّةٍ حَمْرَاءَ مُشَمِّرًا فَصَلَّى إِلَى الْعَنَزَةِ بِالنَّاسِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَرَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ وَالدَّوَابَّ يَمُرُّونَ بَيْنَ يَدَىِ الْعَنَزَةِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about a time when the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, was leading people in prayer at al-Abtah in Mecca. Bilal was helping by taking ablution water from those who had it and giving it to those who did not have any. He then took a staff and fixed it into the ground so that everyone could face it while praying. People and animals were passing by as they prayed together with their beloved prophet. This hadith teaches us that we should always strive to pray together with our community, no matter what obstacles may come our way, as well as to help each other out whenever possible. It also shows us how important prayer is for Muslims, even if there are distractions around them or if they are facing difficult circumstances.
