Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا يَمْنَعَنَّ رَجُلٌ أَهْلَهُ أَنْ يَأْتُوا الْمَسَاجِدَ» . فَقَالَ ابْنٌ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ: فَإِنَّا نَمْنَعُهُنَّ. فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: أُحَدِّثُكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَتَقُولُ هَذَا؟ قَالَ: فَمَا كَلَّمَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَتَّى مَاتَ. رَوَاهُ أَحْمد

Mujahid reported from ʿAbd Allah ibn ʿUmar that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Let no man prevent his family from going to the mosques.” A son of ʿAbd Allah ibn ʿUmar said, “We will prevent them.” ʿAbd Allah replied, “I am telling you what the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, and you say this?” The report says that ʿAbd Allah did not speak to him until he died. Ahmad transmitted it.
