Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah
Narrated Abu Mas'ud Al-Ansari (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):
Once a man said to Allah's Apostle (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) "O
Allah's Apostle! I may not attend the (compulsory congregational)prayer
because so and so (the Imam) prolongs the prayer when he leads us for it.
The narrator added: "I never saw the Prophet more furious in giving advice
than he was on that day. The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said,
"O people! Some of you make others dislike good deeds (the prayers). So
whoever leads the people in prayer should shorten it because among them
there are the sick the weak and the needy (having some jobs to do)."
