Abu Mas’ud ‘Uqba ibn ‘Amr al-Badri said, “A man came to the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and said, ‘By Allah, Messenger of Allah, the only reason I do not attend the morning prayer is because so-and-so makes the prayer too long for us.’ I have never seen the Messenger of Allah more angry in giving admonition than he was that day. He said, ‘Some of you make things difficult for people. Any of you who of you lead people in prayer should make it short. Among you there are those who are weak, old and have things they must do.'” [Agreed upon]
