Al Salah! Al Salah! Allah intends only to remove from you the impurity [of sin], O people of the [Prophet’s] household
عن ابن جرير حدثنا بن وكيع حدثنا أبو نعيم حدثنا يونس عن أبي إسحاق أخبرني أبو داود عن أبي الحمراء قال رابطت المدينة سبعة أشهر على عهد رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم قال رأيت رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم إذا طلع الفجر جاء إلى باب علي و فاطمة رضي الله عنهما فقال الصلاة الصلاة إِنَّمَا يُرِيْدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيْرًا
From Ibn Jarir―ibn Waki’ narrated to us―Abu Nuaim narrated to us―Yunus narrated to us from―Abu Ishaq―Abu Dawood informed us from―Abu al Hamra’ who relates:
I was stationed in Madinah for seven months during the lifetime of Rasulullah salla Llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. I noticed that when fajr time would set in, Rasulullah salla Llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam would come to the door of ‘Ali and Fatimah and say: Al Salah! Al Salah! Allah intends only to remove from you the impurity [of sin], O people of the [Prophet’s] household, and to purify you with [extensive] purification.
Abu Dawood al A’ma
- Ibn Kathir comments, “Abu Dawood al A’ma is Nafi’ ibn al Harith, the kadha”[1]
- Hafiz says, “Matruk (suspected for forgery). Yahya ibn Ma’in declared him a liar.”[2]
This narration poses yet another obstacle for the Shia. How is it possible for Rasulullah salla Llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam to remind the infallible about salah? Was he afraid that they would miss salah? This fear denies their infallibility. It is mandatory on the infallible not to forget about salah and prepare for the same without a reminder.
