وَ عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلنَّضْرِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ:« صَلَّى رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ اَلْفَجْرَ فَأَقْبَلَ بِوَجْهِهِ عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَسَأَلَ عَنْ أُنَاسٍ يُسَمِّيهِمْ بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ فَقَالَ« هَلْ حَضَرُوا اَلصَّلاَةَ» فَقَالُوا لاَ يَارَسُولَ اَللَّهِ فَقَالَ« أَغُيَّبٌ هُمْ» فَقَالُوا لاَ فَقَالَ« أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْ صَلاَةٍ أَشَدَّ عَلَى اَلْمُنَافِقِينَ مِنْ هَذِهِ اَلصَّلاَةِ وَ اَلْعِشَاءِ وَ لَوْ عَلِمُوا أَيُّ فَضْلٍ فِيهِمَا لَأَتَوْهُمَا وَ لَوْ حَبْواً»»

Translation

And from him, from al-Nadr, from Abdullah ibn Sinan, from Abu Abdillah (a.s), peace be upon him, he said: I heard Imam (a.s) say: “The Messenger of Allah (swt), may Allah (swt) bless him and his family, prayed the dawn prayer. Then, He (saws) turned his face to his companions and asked about some people, mentioning them by their names. Prophet (saws) said: ‘Did they attend the prayer?’ They (companions) said: ‘No, O’ Messenger of Allah (swt).’ Prophet (saws) said: ‘Are they absent?’ They said: ‘No.’ Prophet (saws) said: ‘Indeed, there is no prayer more burdensome upon the hypocrites than this (Fajr) prayer and the evening prayer. And if they knew what virtue is in them, they would come to them even if crawling.’”
