حَدَّثَنَا کَثِيرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الْحِمْصِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ عَنْ وَرْقَائَ بْنِ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ ذَکْوَانَ أَبُو الزِّنَادِ عَنْ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ إِذَا صَلَّی فِي الْعَلَانِيَةِ فَأَحْسَنَ وَصَلَّی فِي السِّرِّ فَأَحْسَنَ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ هَذَا عَبْدِي حَقًّا
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 4200
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H said: "If a person prays in public and does it well, and he prays in secret and does it well, then Allah says: 'This man is truly My slave.''' (Da'if)
