Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا الْجَرَّاحُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ قَالَ نَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَاصِمٍ قَالَ نَا هَمَّامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ مُوَرِّقٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ صَلَاةُ الْمَرْأَةِ فِي مَخْدَعِهَا أَفْضَلُ مِنْ صَلَاتِهَا فِي بَيْتِهَا وَصَلَاتُهَا فِي بَيْتِهَا أَفْضَلُ مِنْ صَلَاتِهَا فِي حُجْرَتِهَا اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ صَلَاةُ الْمَرْأَةِ فِي مَخْدَعِهَا أَفْضَلُ مِنْ صَلَاتِهَا فِي بَيْتِهَا وَصَلَاتُهَا فِي بَيْتِهَا أَفْضَلُ مِنْ صَلَاتِهَا فِي حُجْرَتِهَا
English Translation
Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna narrated to us, he said: Muhammad ibn Ja'far narrated to us, he said: Shu'bah narrated to us, from Abu Ishaq, from al-Bara', who said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: «What do you say about the joy of a man whose camel has run away from him in a waterless desert, carrying his food and drink, and he searches for it until exhaustion overcomes him? Then he comes to a tree and lies in its shade, having despaired of his camel. While he is like that, it appears before him. He seizes its reins and says: O Allah, You are my servant and I am Your Lord — making an error out of sheer joy.»
