Imom At-Termiziy Ibn 'Abbos (Alloh ulardan rozi bo'lsin) orqali rivoyat qilishicha, unga kunduzi ro'za tutib, kechasi namoz o'qiydigan, lekin jamoat bilan namoz o'qimaydigan kishi haqida so'ralganda, Ibn 'Abbos javob berdi: "Agar u shu holatda vafot etsa, do'zaxga kiradi."
Bir kuni ko'zi ojiz bir kishi Payg'ambar ﷺ huzuriga kelib dedi: "Ey Allohning Elchisi, meni masjidga yetaklab boradigan kishim yo'q. Men uyda namoz o'qishga ruxsat olishim mumkinmi?" Payg'ambar ﷺ unga ruxsat berdi. Ammo u qaytib ketayotganda Payg'ambar ﷺ uni chaqirib so'radi: "Azon ovozini eshitasanmi?" U javob berdi: "Ha." Payg'ambar ﷺ dedi: "Unda uni ijobat qil."
Abu Dovud ham bu hadisni quyidagicha rivoyat qilgan: Ibn Umm Maktum Payg'ambar ﷺ huzuriga kelib dedi: "Ey Allohning Elchisi, Madinada ko'p sudralib yuruvchi jonivorlar va yirtqich hayvonlar bor, men esa ko'rmasman. Men uyda namoz o'qishga ruxsat olishim mumkinmi?" Payg'ambar ﷺ so'radi: "Hay'alas-salah, hay'alas-salah" degan azon so'zlarini eshitasanmi?" U dedi: "Ha." Payg'ambar ﷺ dedi: "Unda sen unga javob berishing kerak."
Boshqa rivoyatda aytilishicha, u dedi: "Ey Allohning Elchisi, men ko'zi ojiz kishiman, masjiddan uzoqda yashayman va menga yo'l boshlovchi kam bo'ladi. Menga ruxsat bormi?" Payg'ambar ﷺ dedi: "Azon ovozini eshitib, unga javob berishni hech qanday uzr to'sib qo'ymagan kishining namozi qabul qilinmaydi." Ular so'radilar: "Ey Allohning Elchisi, uzr nima?" U javob berdi: "Qo'rquv yoki kasallik."
"Alloh uch kishini la'natlasin: odamlar uni yomon ko'radigan holda ularga imomlik qiladigan kishi, eridan g'azablangan holda tunni o'tkazadigan ayol va azon ovozini eshitib, unga javob bermaydigan kishi."
Abu Hurayra dedi: "Azon eshitib, unga javob bermaslikdan ko'ra, quloqlarini erigan qo'rg'oshin bilan to'ldirgan ma'qulroqdir."
Ali ibn Abu Solib (Alloh undan rozi bo'lsin) dedi: "Masjid qo'shnisining namozi faqat masjidda o'qilgandagina qabul qilinadi." So'raldi: "Masjid qo'shnisi kim?" U javob berdi: "Azon ovozini eshitadigan kishi." Ali ham shunday degan: "Kim azon eshitib, lekin namoziga javob bermasa, uning namozi boshidan naryog'iga o'tmaydi, faqat udr bo'lsa bundan mustasno." Ibn Mas'ud (Alloh undan rozi bo'lsin) shunday degan: "Kim Allohga musulmon holida duch kelishni yoqtirsa, azon aytilganda besh vaqt namozni ado etishda davom etsin. Chunki Alloh taolo Nabiyingizga hidoyat yo'llari (sunnat)ni berdi, bu besh vaqt namoz ham o'sha yo'llardandir. Agar siz namozni uyda o'qisangiz, namozni tark etuvchi kishi qilgandek qilgan bo'lasiz, u holda Nabiyning sunnatini tark etgan bo'lasiz. Agar Nabiyning sunnatini tark etsangiz, adashgan bo'lasiz. Darhaqiqat, bizlardan jamoat namozini faqat ma'lum munofiq yoki kasal kishidan boshqasi tark etmas edi. Eslayman, ikki kishining yelkasiga suyanib keltirilgan bir odam saf ichiga qo'yilardi, toki jamoat namozining savobiga erishsin va uni tark etishning gunohidan qutulsin."
Jamoat bilan namoz o'qish shunchalik ulug' ishki, Qur'oni karimda Alloh taolo shunday deydi: {Zikrdan so'ng Biz Zabur kitobida: "Yerga Mening solih bandalarim vorislik qiladilar", deb yozgan edik.} (Al-Anbiyo: 105)
At-Tirmidhi related on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) who was asked about a man who spends the day fasting and the night praying but he does not pray in a congregation. Ibn `Abbas answered, if he dies adhering to that, he will enter the Hell fire. " Once, a blind man came to the Prophet (pbuh) and submitted, "0 Messenger of Allah, I have nobody to lead me to mosque, do I have a dispension to pray at home? Then the Prophet permitted him. But when he was going back the Prophet called him and asked, do you hear the call to prayer? The man replied, yes. "Therefore respond to it.” the Prophet said.” The same hadith is reported by Abu Dawud as follows: Ibn Umm Maktum came to the Prophet (pbuh) and said, "0 Messenger of Allah, there are large number of reptiles and beasts in Medina and I am blind, do I have a dispension to pray at home? Then the Prophet (pbuh) said, do you hear the words of the call to prayer (haiyaala salah, haiyaala salah). He said, yes." The Prophet said, then you have to respond to. Another narration states that, "0 Messenger of Allah, I am a blind man and live far away from the mosque and love an inconvenient guide, do I have dispension? "Whoever hears the call to prayer and no excuse withholds him to respond will not have his prayer accepted. They asked, 0 Messenger of Allah, what is an excuse? He said, fear or sickness. " "May Allah curse three people: he who leads a group of people who hate him, a woman who spends a night angry with her husband, and a man who hears the call to prayer and does not answer. " Abu Hurairah said, it is better for one's ears to be filled with molten lead than to hear the call to prayer and not answer it." Ali Ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "The prayers performed by a neighbor of a mosque are not accepted except in the mosque." Someone asked, who is a neighbor of a mosque? He replied, he who hears the call to prayer." Ali also said, whoever hears the call to prayer and does not respond his prayer will not go further than his head except if he has an excuse." Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him said, whoever likes to meet Allah as a Muslim should keep on performing the five prayers when the call to them is issued. This is because, Allah has given your Prophet the traditions of guidance (Sunna) and they (the five prayers) belong to such traditions. If you pray at home as does the one who remisses the prayer, then you neglect the Prophet's Sunna. If you neglect the Prophet's Sunna you will be astray. Verily, none of us would miss the congregational prayer but a wellknown hypocrite or a sick man. I remember that a man would be brought leaning on two men and put in the raw to attain its reward and escape the sins of missing it." Performing prayers in congregation is so great as mentioned in Qur'an Allah most high says, {Before this We wrote in the psalms, after the message given to Moses): "My servants the righteous, shall inherit the earth.} (AI-Anbiya': 105)
