Volume 4 Book 56 Hadith 799

Volume 4, Book 56, Number 799:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Apostle said, “There will be afflictions (and at the time) the sitting person will be better than
the standing one, and the standing one will be better than the walking, and the walking will be bet –
ter than the running. And whoever will look towards those afflictions, they will overtake him, and
whoever will find a refuge or a shelter, should take refuge in it.” The same narration is reported by
Abu Bakr, with the addition, “(The Prophet said), ‘Among the prayers there is a prayer the missing of
which will be to one like losing one’s family and property.”
