Hadith.1562 - Abdul Wahid ibn al-Mukhtar al-Ansari narrated from Abu Ja'far (as), who said
"I asked him about the Duha prayer” Imam (as) said: ‘The first people to perform it were your people, for they were among the heedless, so they performed it. The Messenger of Allah (sw) did not perform it.' He also said: 'Imam Ali (as) passed by a man who was performing it, and Imam Ali (as) said: ‘What is this prayer?’ The man replied: ‘Should I leave it, O’ Commander of the Faithful?’ He (Imam Ali (as)) said: ‘Would I forbid a servant when he prays?’".
1562 - وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَلْوَاحِدِ بْنُ اَلْمُخْتَارِ اَلْأَنْصَارِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ صَلاَةِ اَلضُّحَى فَقَالَ «أَوَّلُ مَنْ صَلاَّهَا قَوْمُكَ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا مِنَ اَلْغَافِلِينَ فَيُصَلُّونَهَا وَ لَمْ يُصَلِّهَا رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ » وَقَالَ «إِنَّ عَلِيّاً عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ مَرَّ عَلَى رَجُلٍ وَ هُوَ يُصَلِّيهَا فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «مَا هَذِهِ اَلصَّلاَةُ» فَقَالَ أَدَعُهَا يَا أَمِيرَ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «أَكُونُ أَنْهَى «عَبْداً إِذٰا صَلّٰى.
