The Worst Thief in Islam

Do you know ,who is the worst thief in Islam ?

They are not who robbing millions of money in the bank, or who has managed to steal a luxury car in a public parking area.but....The worst thief is the one who steals from his prayer.

It is narrated by Abu Qatadah [ra] that the Prophet (saw) said, “The worst kind of thief is one who steals from his prayer.” The companions said, “O Prophet of Allah how can someone steal from their prayers?” He (saw) said, “He does not fulfill the ruku of the prayer nor its sujood.” [Ahmad]

The Prophet (saw) forbade that someone should peck (in Salah) like a crow. [Ahmad, Abu Dawud]

The Prophet (saw) said, “Verily, a man will leave from (his Salah) and only a tenth of his Salah is written for him, a ninth, an eighth, a seventh, a sixth, a fifth, a forth, a third, half.” [Abu Dawud and Tirmidhi]

"Salah isn't a race, don't rush through it. 'We have divided the Qur’an in portions, so that you may recite it to the people gradually.' (17:106)"

A man entered the Masjid and the Messenger of Allah (saw) was sitting. The man prayed (2 raka’) and then came to the Prophet (saw) and said salam. The Prophet (saw) replied the salam and then said, “Go back and pray for you have not prayed.” So the man went back, prayed (2 raka’) like he did the first time and then came back and repeated the salam. The Prophet (saw) replied the salam and then said, “Go back and pray for you have not prayed.” So the man went back, prayed (2 raka’) like he did the first time and then came back and repeated the salam. The Prophet –(saw) replied the salam and then said, “Go back and pray for you have not prayed.” He said it three times until – on the third time the man said, “By He who sent you with the truth O Messenger of Allah, I do not know any better than this. Teach me.”

The Prophet (saw) then said, “If you stand up for Salah say ‘Allahu Akbar.’ Then read what comes easy for you from the Quran. Then bow until you are comfortable in your ruku’. Then stand up until you are standing up straight. Then prostrate until you are comfortable in your Sujood. Then sit until you are comfortable in your Juloos. Then prostrate until you are comfortable in your Sujood. And do this in your entire Salah.” [Bukhari, Muslim]

Uthman ibn Abi Dahshah said, “I have never prayed a Salah that I have not asked Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta’aala to forgive for my shortcomings in that Salah.”
