📖 1 min readعن أبي عبد الله جابر بن سمرة رضي الله عنهما قال: كنت أصلي مع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم الصلوات، فكانت صلاته قَصْدًا وخطبته قَصْدًا.
The Prophet's prayer and sermon were not overly long or brief. Yet, they were moderate, being performed and given by the role model for Muslims in general and for Imāms and preachers in particular. So, no one should cite this Hadīth as evidence that the prayer and sermon may take place very quickly, for the Prophet's guidance points to moderation, and sometimes prolongation that causes no boredom.
