English translation

460. It was narrated that Anas said: "A man asked the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ: 'O Messenger of Allāh, how many prayers has Allāh enjoined upon His slaves?' He said: 'Allāh has enjoined upon His slaves (five) prayers.' He said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, is there anything before them or after them?' He said: 'Allāh has enjoined upon His slaves (five) prayers.' The man swore that he would not do anything more or less than that. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'If he is speaking the truth he will most certainly enter Paradise.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)

459 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا نُوحُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، كَمِ افْتَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ مِنِ الصَّلَوَاتِ؟ قَالَ: «افْتَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ صَلَوَاتٍ خَمْسًا». قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، هَلْ قَبْلَهُنَّ أَوْ بَعْدَهُنَّ شَيْئًا؟ قَالَ: «افْتَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ صَلَوَاتٍ خَمْسًا». فَحَلَفَ الرَّجُلُ لَا يَزِيدُ عَلَيْهِ شَيْئًا وَلَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا. قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنْ صَدَقَ لَيَدْخُلَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ»
