Hadith 639
۞
Hadith.639 - The Messenger of Allah (sw) said:
"The example of prayer is like the central pole of a tent. If the central pole is firmly established, then the ropes, pegs, and coverings remain firm; but if the central pole breaks, then neither the pegs, ropes, nor coverings are of any use."
639 - وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: «مَثَلُ اَلصَّلاَةِ مَثَلُ عَمُودِ اَلْفُسْطَاطِ إِذَا ثَبَتَ اَلْعَمُودُ ثَبَتَتِ اَلْأَطْنَابُ وَ اَلْأَوْتَادُ وَ اَلْغِشَاءُ وَ إِذَا اِنْكَسَرَ اَلْعَمُودُ لَمْ يَنْفَعْ وَتِدٌ وَ لاَ طُنُبٌ وَ لاَ غِشَاءٌ.
