أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْلَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ رَضِيَ اللهِ عَنْهُ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ :" مَثَلُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْمَكْتُوبَاتِ، كَمَثَلِ نَهْرٍ جَارٍ عَذْبٍ عَلَى بَاب أَحَدِكُمْ، يَغْتَسِلُ مِنْهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ "

Ya’la bin Ubaid told us, Al-A’mash told us, on the authority of Abu Sufyan, on the authority of Jabir, may God be pleased with him, who said: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said And he said: “The example of the written prayers is like a fresh, flowing river at the door of one of you, in which he bathes five times every day.”
