ENGLISH TRANSLATION

3. Abu Ali al-Ash’ari has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan from abu ‘Usamah Zayd al-Shahham from Muhammad ibn Muslim from Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام who has said the following: “Once a man came to the Holy Prophet and said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, “I assign one third of my prayer to you. No, in fact, I assign half of my prayer to you. No, I assign all of my prayer to you.” The Messenger of Allah said, ‘That means that you have complete supplies for this and the next life.’”
