Muwatta Malik, 22

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that once Umar ibn al-Khattab left after doing the asr prayer and met a man who had not been there. Umar asked him what had kept him from the prayer and eventhough the man gave a good reason, Umar said, "You have given yourself short measure." Yahya added that Malik commented, "It is said that everything has a short measure and a full measure

Yahya Ibn Sa'id a rapporté que Omar Ibn Al-Khattab, finissant la prière de l'asr, croisa un homme l'ayant manquée; Omar lui dit: «qu'est-ce qui t'a empêché de faire l'asr en commun?» L'homme présenta une excuse et Omar répliqua: «tu t'es privé de sa récompense»
