215 - 'Abd Allah ibn Ahmad reported to us, saying: My father [Ahmad ibn Hanbal] narrated to me, saying: Yazid narrated to us, saying: Ibn Abi Dhi'b informed us, from 'Ajlan, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: "By Him in Whose Hand is my soul, I certainly see what is behind me just as I see what is before me. So, straighten your rows, and perform your bowing and prostration well."
٢١٥ - أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ: ثَنَا يَزِيدُ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنْ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ ⦗١٩٨⦘ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، إِنِّي لَأَنْظُرُ إِلَى مَا وَرَائِي كَمَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى مَا بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ، فَسَوُّوا صُفُوفَكُمْ، وَأَحْسِنُوا رُكُوعَكُمْ وَسُجُودَكُمْ»
