Sahih al-Bukhari 879 (Book 11, Hadith 25)
Rasulullah’ (I testify that Muhammad is Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)), do not say ‘Haiya ‘Alas-Salat’ (come for the
prayer) but say ‘Pray in your houses’.” (The man did so). But the people disliked it. Ibn `Abbas said,
“It was done by one who was much better than I (i.e. the Prophet (p.b.u.h) ). No doubt, the Jumua
prayer is compulsory but I dislike to put you to task by bringing you out walking in mud and slush.”
