Sahih al-Bukhari 650 (Book 10, Hadith 62)
prayer” Ibn `Abbas ordered him to say, “Pray in your homes.” The people began to look at one another
with surprise as if they did not like it. Ibn `Abbas said, “It seems that you thought ill of it but no doubt
it was done by one who was better than I (i.e. the Prophet). It (the prayer) is a strict order and I
disliked to bring you out.”
Ibn `Abbas narrated the same as above but he said, “I did not like you to make you sinful (in
refraining from coming to the mosque) and to come (to the mosque) covered with mud up to the
knees.”
Sahih al-Bukhari 650 (Book 10, Hadith 62)
The above hadith is from the Sahih al-Buhari collection of hadiths. Within the Islamic scholarly tradition, few works hold as much weight as Sahih al-Bukhari. This vast compilation, assembled by the Persian scholar al-Bukhārī circa 847, is a cornerstone of Sunni faith and practice. It is one of the six canonical hadith collections known collectively as the Kutub al-Sittah. Imam al-Bukhārī’s work is particularly celebrated for its author’s stringent criteria in verifying the chain of narration (isnad), resulting in a trusted body of over 7,500 hadiths organized into 97 distinct chapters that cover every aspect of life.
