English translation

936. It was reported from Ibn Shihāb, from Sa'eed bin Al-Musayyab and Abū Salamah bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān, both of them informed him from Abū Hurairah, may Allāh be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "When the Imām says: 'Āmīn', then say: 'Āmīn' yourselves, because whoever's 'Āmīn' corresponds to the 'Āmīn' of the Angels, he will have all his previous sins forgiven." (Ṣaḥīḥ) Ibn Shihāb said: "And the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ used to say: 'Āmīn'."

936 - حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، وَأَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّهُمَا أَخْبَرَاهُ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِذَا أَمَّنَ الْإِمَامُ فَأَمِّنُوا، فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ وَافَقَ تَأْمِينُهُ تَأْمِينَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ، غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ»، قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ: وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «آمِينَ»
