وعن أبي الدرداء رضي الله عنه قال: سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول:
"ما من ثلاثة في قرية ولا بدو لا تقام فيهم الصلاة إلا قد استحوذ عليهم الشيطان. فعليكم بالجماعة، فإنما يأكل الذئب من الغنم القاصية" ((رواه أبو داود بإسناد حسن)).
Abud-Darda' (May Allah be pleased with him)reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying, "If three men in a village or in the desert, make no arrangement for Salat in congregation, Satan must have certainly overcome them. So observe Salat in congregation, for the wolf eats up a solitary sheep that stays far from the flock.".
