كتاب إقامة الصلاة والسنة فيها

Arabic Text

حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ، قَالَ شَهِدَ عِيَاضٌ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عِيدًا بِالأَنْبَارِ فَقَالَ مَالِي لاَ أَرَاكُمْ تُقَلِّسُونَ كَمَا كَانَ يُقَلَّسُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏.‏

English Translation

It was narrated that ‘Amir said:

“Iyad Al-Ash’ari was in Anbar at the time of ‘Eid, and he said: ‘Why is it that I do not see you engaged in Taqlis* as was done in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)?’” *Taqlis means to indulge in celebrations on a festive occasion.
