رَأَى رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي خَلْفَ اَلصَّفِّ وَحْدَهُ, فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُعِيدَ اَلصَّلَاةَ

Narrated Wabisah bin Ma'bad:

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saw a man praying alone behind the row so he ordered him to repeat the Salat (prayer).

لَا صَلَاةَ لِمُنْفَرِدٍ خَلْفَ اَلصَّفِّ

Ibn Hibban reported this from Talq:

“The prayer of a person who prays alone behind the row is not accepted.

أَلَا دَخَلْتَ مَعَهُمْ أَوْ اِجْتَرَرْتَ رَجُلًا?

And at-Tabarani added to the narration of Wabisah, “Why did you not join them or pull back a man (to your position)?”

إِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ اَلْإِقَامَةَ فَامْشُوا إِلَى اَلصَّلَاةِ, وَعَلَيْكُمْ اَلسَّكِينَةُ وَالْوَقَارُ, وَلَا تُسْرِعُوا, فَمَا أَدْرَكْتُمْ…
