Sayyiduna Abu Mas’ud Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) says that a man came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! I am sometimes late for the Fajr prayer because I fear the lengthy recitation of such-and-such imam. On that day, I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) admonishing the people in a state of intense anger. He said: O people! Some of you make others averse (to prayer). Whoever among you leads the people in prayer should make it brief, for among them are the weak, the elderly, and those with needs.
