848. It was narrated that Ma'dān bin Abī Ṭalḥah Al-Ya'murī said: "Abū Ad-Dardā' said to me: 'Where do you live?' I said: 'In a town near Hims.' Abū Ad-Dardā' said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: "There are no three people in a town or encampment among whom prayer is not established, but the Shaitān takes control of them. Therefore, stick to the congregation, for the wolf eats the sheep that strays off on its own.” (One of the narrators (As-Sâ’ib) said: “The congregation means the congregational prayer.” (Sahîh)

847 - أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ زَائِدَةَ بْنِ قُدَامَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا السَّائِبُ بْنُ حُبَيْشٍ الْكَلَاعِيُّ، عَنْ مَعْدَانَ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ الْيَعْمُرِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ: أَيْنَ مَسْكَنُكَ؟ قُلْتُ: فِي قَرْيَةٍ دُوَيْنَ حِمْصَ، فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَا مِنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ فِي قَرْيَةٍ وَلَا بَدْوٍ لَا تُقَامُ فِيهِمُ الصَّلَاةُ إِلَّا قَدِ اسْتَحْوَذَ عَلَيْهِمُ الشَّيْطَانُ، فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالْجَمَاعَةِ؛ فَإِنَّمَا يَأْكُلُ الذِّئْبُ الْقَاصِيَةَ» قَالَ السَّائِبُ: يَعْنِي بِالْجَمَاعَةِ الْجَمَاعَةَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ
