حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَی حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ عَنْ عَطَائِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الصَّلَاةُ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ تَعْدِلُ خَمْسًا وَعِشْرِينَ صَلَاةً فَإِذَا صَلَّاهَا فِي فَلَاةٍ فَأَتَمَّ رُکُوعَهَا وَسُجُودَهَا بَلَغَتْ خَمْسِينَ صَلَاةً قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد قَالَ عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ صَلَاةُ الرَّجُلِ فِي الْفَلَاةِ تُضَاعَفُ عَلَی صَلَاتِهِ فِي الْجَمَاعَةِ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 560
Narrated Abu Saeed al-Khudri: Prayer in congregation is equivalent to twenty-five prayers (offered alone). If he prays in a jungle, and performs its bowing and prostrations perfectly, it becomes equivalent to fifty prayers (in respect of reward). Abu Dawud said: Abd al-Walid bin Ziyad narrated in his version of this tradition: "Prayer said by a single person in a jungle is more excellent by multiplied degrees than prayer said in congregation. "
