Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَبَّانُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنِ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ بْنِ لاَحِقٍ، عَنْ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلاَّمٍ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ مِينَاءَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، وَابْنَ، عُمَرَ يُحَدِّثَانِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ وَهُوَ عَلَى أَعْوَادِ مِنْبَرِهِ ‏ "‏ لَيَنْتَهِيَنَّ أَقْوَامٌ عَنْ وَدْعِهِمُ الْجُمُعَاتِ أَوْ لَيَخْتِمَنَّ اللَّهُ عَلَى قُلُوبِهِمْ وَلَيَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْغَافِلِينَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn Ma‘mar informed us; he said: Habban narrated to us; he said: Aban narrated to us; he said: Yahya ibn Abi Kathir narrated to us, from al-Hadrami ibn Lahik, from Zayd, from Abu Sallam, from al-Hakam ibn Minā’, who heard Ibn ‘Abbas and Ibn ‘Umar relate that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said while standing on the wooden steps of his pulpit: “People must stop abandoning Friday prayers, or Allah will seal their hearts and they will surely be among the heedless.”
