The prayers of hypocrite have three qualities:
- Laziness while intending to perform Salat.
- Mentioning Allah rarely and reciting Fatihah hastily to finish Salat quickly.
- Delaying performing Salat after its prescribed time, because of his laziness. It was reported in a Noble Hadith that Allah’s Messenger, peace be upon him, said: “This is how a hypocrite prays: he sits watching the sun, and when it becomes yellow and is between the horns of the devil, he rises and prays four rak’as quickly, mentioning God seldom during them.”
(Surely the hypocrites seek to deceive Allah, but He outwits them. When they stand up for prayer, they do it half-heartedly only to be seen by people—hardly remembering Allah at all.) An-Nisa’a 4:142
(And what prevented their donations from being accepted is that they have lost faith in Allah and His Messenger, they never come to prayer except half-heartedly, and they never donate except resentfully.) At-Taubah 9:5
:لصلاة المنافقين ثلاث صفات
- كسل المصلي حين قيامه لها
- ذكره لله فيها قليل ربما اختصرعلى الفاتحة و صلاها سريعا
- يؤخر الصلاة عن وقتها. و هو من كسله عنها. و قد جاء في الحديث “تلك صلاة المنافقين يجلس يرقب الشمس (أي وقت غروبها ) قام فنقرها أربع نقرات لا يذكر الله فيها “إلا قليلا”. رواه مسلم
( إِنَّ الْمُنَافِقِينَ يُخَادِعُونَ اللَّـهَ وَهُوَ خَادِعُهُمْ وَإِذَا قَامُوا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ قَامُوا كُسَالَىٰ يُرَاءُونَ النَّاسَ وَلَا يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّـهَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا )
النساء: ١٤٢
( وَمَا مَنَعَهُمْ أَن تُقْبَلَ مِنْهُمْ نَفَقَاتُهُمْ إِلَّا أَنَّهُمْ كَفَرُوا بِاللَّـهِ وَبِرَسُولِهِ وَلَا يَأْتُونَ الصَّلَاةَ إِلَّا وَهُمْ كُسَالَىٰ وَلَا يُنفِقُونَ إِلَّا وَهُمْ كَارِهُونَ )
التوبة: ٥٤
