Sunan Abu Dawud #644

Prayer (Kitab Al-Salat)
Sahih Maqtu'

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى بْنِ الطَّبَّاعِ، حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ أَكْثَرُ مَا رَأَيْتُ عَطَاءً يُصَلِّي سَادِلاً ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَهَذَا يُضَعِّفُ ذَلِكَ الْحَدِيثَ ‏.‏
This (practice of ‘Ata’) weakens the tradition (narrated by Abu Hurairah).
Narrated by Ibn Juraij said; I often saw ‘Ata praying while letting his garment trail. Abu Dawud said:

Context

In this hadith, Ibn Juraij observes ‘Ata praying while allowing his garment to trail. Abu Dawud notes that this practice weakens the tradition narrated by Abu Hurairah. The takeaway here is the importance of maintaining proper attire during prayer, which reflects respect and adherence to Islamic guidelines.

Modern Application

In daily salah, Muslims are encouraged to wear garments that are clean and appropriately fitted, avoiding any that may trail on the ground. This practice not only enhances the dignity of the prayer but also aligns with the teachings of the Prophet (ﷺ).

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Clothing Etiquette and Islamic Dress Code because it emphasizes the significance of proper attire during prayer.
