٣٣. عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ رَضِيَ اللّٰهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: كَانَ مِنْ آخِرِ وَصِيَّةِ رَسُولِ اللّٰهِ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:
«الصَّلَاةَ الصَّلَاةَ وَمَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُكُمْ» حَتَّى جَعَلَ نَبِيُّ اللّٰهِ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُلَجْلِجُهَا فِي صَدْرِهِ وَمَا يَفِيصُ بِهَا لِسَانُهُ.
33. Ummu Salamah (r.a.), the mother of Muslims narrated:
“One of the last wills of the Prophet (pbuh) was:
“Pay attention to your prayers! Pay attention to your prayers! Pay attention to the rights of those who work for you!”
Allah’s Messenger (pbuh) repeated these words so many times that when his blessed tongue could not pronounce them any longer, he started to whisper them. (Ahmad, VI, 290, 315. Also see Abu Dawud, Adab, 123-124/5156; Ibn Majah, Wasayah, 1; Baihaqi, Shuab, VII, 477)
