Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir al-Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When a man purifies himself and then goes to the mosque and waits for the prayer, his recording angels write for him ten good deeds for every step he takes; the one who sits waiting for the prayer is like the one standing in devotion (the worshipper); and he is counted among those praying from the time he leaves his home until he returns." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.
