Arabic text

1016 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ الْمَكِّيُّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ أَكَلَ مِنْ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ شَيْئًا فَلَا يَأْتِيَنَّ الْمَسْجِدَ»

Commentary

It is not allowed for a believing man to stay away from prayer-in-congregation. The Hadīth does not mean that the eating of bad-smelling substances could be an excuse for avoiding the prayer-in-congregation. It rather exhorts the people to avoid eating those things before the approach of the prayer time.
