English narration
Narrated by أبو سعيد الخدري
Abu al-Waddak said: A youth from the Quraish passed in front of Abu Saeed Al-Khudri who was praying. He repulsed him. He returned again. He then repulsed him for the third time. When he finished the prayer, he said: Nothing cuts off prayer; but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Repulse as much as you can, for he is just a devil. Abu Dawud said: If two traditions of the Prophet ﷺ conflict, the practice of the Companions after him should be taken into consideration.
النص العربي
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُجَالِدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَدَّاكِ ، قَالَ : مَرَّ شَابٌّ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَدَفَعَهُ ، ثُمَّ عَادَ فَدَفَعَهُ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ ، قَالَ : إِنَّ الصَّلَاةَ لَا يَقْطَعُهَا شَيْءٌ ، وَلَكِنْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : "
ادْرَءُوا مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ فَإِنَّهُ شَيْطَانٌ
" ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : إِذَا تَنَازَعَ الْخَبَرَانِ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نُظِرَ إِلَى مَا عَمِلَ بِهِ أَصْحَابُهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ .
