The Excellence of waiting for As-Salat (The Prayer)

باب فضل انتظار الصلاة‏:‏

Riyad as-Salihin 1061
وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال‏:‏ ‏ ‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏
"‏لا يزال أحدكم في صلاة مادامت الصلاة تحبسه لا يمنعه أن ينقلب إلى أهله إلا الصلاة‏"
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Everyone among you will be deemed to be occupied in Salat (prayer) constantly so long as Salat (the prayer) detains him (from worldly concerns), and nothing prevents him from returning to his family but Salat."[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
