Muwatta Malik #150
Prayer
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، وَإِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّهُمَا أَخْبَرَاهُ أَنَّهُمَا، سَمِعَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" إِذَا ثُوِّبَ بِالصَّلاَةِ فَلاَ تَأْتُوهَا وَأَنْتُمْ تَسْعَوْنَ وَأْتُوهَا وَعَلَيْكُمُ السَّكِينَةُ فَمَا أَدْرَكْتُمْ فَصَلُّوا وَمَا فَاتَكُمْ فَأَتِمُّوا فَإِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ فِي صَلاَةٍ مَا كَانَ يَعْمِدُ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ " .
Yahya related to me from Malik from al-Ala ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn
Yaqub from his father and Ishaq ibn Abdullah that they informed him
that they heard Abu Hurayra say, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said, 'When the iqama is called for
prayer, do not come to it running, but come with calmness. Pray what
you catch and complete what you miss. You are in prayer as long as
your aim is the prayer.' "
