| SunanAbuDawoud-017-001-27527 | | Abdullah Bin Masud said: Persevere in observing these five times of prayer where the announcement for them is made; because they are from the paths of right guidance. And Allah; the Might; the Majestic; has laid down for his prophet ﷺ the paths of right guidance. I have seen the time when no one stayed away from prayer except a hypocrite whose hypocrite was well known. I witnessed the time when a man would be brought swaying between two men till he was set up in the row of the prayer. Every one of us has a Masjid of his in his house. If you were to pray in your houses and stay from your Masjids. You would abandon the Sunnah practice of your prophet; and if you were Abandon the Sunnah Practice of your Prophet; you would become an unbeliever. | The Chapter on Truth And Hypocrisy And Hypocrites Character in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on The Severity Of Not Attending The Congregational Prayer in Sunan Abu Dawoud |

| SunanAbuDawoud-017-001-27536 | | Abu Huraira reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: Prayer said by a man in congregation is twenty five degrees more excellent than prayer said by him alone in his house or in the market. This is because when any of you performs ablution and does it perfectly; and goes out to the Masjid having no intention except praying; and nothing moves him except prayer; then at every step which he takes his rank is elevated by one degree on account of this walking ; and one sin is remitted from him for this walking ; till he enters the Masjid. When he enters the Masjid; he will be reckoned as praying as long as he will be detained by the prayer. The angels keep on invoking blessing on any of you so long as he remains seated in the place he prayer; saying: O Allah; forgive him; O Allah; have mercy on him; O Allah; accept his repentance so long as he does not harm anyone; or breaks his ablution. | The Chapter on Adhan And Iqama And Ablution in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on What Has Been Narrated Regarding The Rewards Of Walking To The Prayer in Sunan Abu Dawoud |

Any one of you may reside near the Masjid or far from it; if he comes to the Masjid and prays in congregation; he will be forgiven by Allah. If he comes to the Masjid while the people had prayed in part; and the prayer remained in part; and he prays in congregation the part he joined; and completed the part he had missed; he will enjoy similarly i.e. he will be forgiven.

| SunanAbuDawoud-017-001-28029 | | Narrated Ali Ibn Abu Talib: Ali said on the pulpit in the Masjid of Kufah: When Friday comes; the devils go to the markets with their flags; and involve people in their needs and prevent them from the Friday prayer. The angels come early in the morning; sit at the door of the Masjid; and record that so-and-so came at the first hour; and so-and-so came at the second hour until the imam comes out for preaching. When a man sits in a place where he can listen to the sermon and look at the imam ; where he remains silent and does not interrupt; he will receive a double reward. If he stays away; sits in a place where he cannot listen to the sermon ; silent; and does not interrupt; he will receive the reward only once. If he sits in a place where he can listen to the sermon and look at the imam ; and he does not remain silent; he will have the burden of it. If anyone says to his companion sitting besides him to be silent while the imam is preaching ; he is guilty of idle talk. Anyone who interrupts during the sermon will receive nothing no reward on that Friday. Then he the narrator says in the end of this tradition: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say so.Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been narrated by AlWalid Bin Muslim from Ibn Jabir.
