[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ delayed it until late into the night, and he said to him: "O Umar, women and children have fallen asleep." So he went out and said: "If it weren't for the hardship it would cause for my Ummah, I would have ordered them to perform it at this hour."  

أحمد:١٩٢٦حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَطَاءٍ وَابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍعَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَخَّرَهَا حَتَّى ذَهَبَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ نَامَ النِّسَاءُ وَالْوِلْدَانُ فَخَرَجَ فَقَالَ لَوْلَا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي لَأَمَرْتُهُمْ أَنْ يُصَلُّوهَا هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ
