[Machine] My father agreed on performing the Umrah pilgrimage, so when the time came for us to depart, he said, "Oh my son, if we were to visit the prince, we should bid him farewell." I replied, "Whatever you wish." So we visited Marwan, and among those present was Abdullah ibn Zubayr. They mentioned the two units of prayer that Ibn Zubayr used to perform after Asr prayer. Marwan asked him, "From whom did you learn these two units of prayer, O son of Zubayr?" He replied, "Abu Hurairah informed me of them, from Aisha." Marwan sent a message to Aisha, asking, "Do you know anything about the two units of prayer that Ibn Zubayr performs after Asr prayer, claiming that Abu Hurairah informed him of them from you?". Aisha sent back, saying, "May Allah forgive Aisha, as I have misplaced my matter. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray Dhuhr and there was money that had come to him, so he sat down to distribute it until the Muadhin came to him for Asr prayer. He then prayed Asr and came to me. It happened to be my day, so he performed two light units of prayer. I then said, 'O Messenger of Allah! Were you commanded to perform these two units of prayer?' He replied, 'No, but these two units of prayer were the ones that I used to perform after Dhuhr, but the division of this money distracted me until the time for Asr arrived. I disliked abandoning them.' Ibn Zubayr said: 'Allah is Greater! Did he not perform them once?' By Allah! I will never abandon them." Umm Salamah remarked, "I never saw him performing these two units of prayer before or after this incident."

I was sent to Aisha by Ibn ʿAbbas, Al-Miswar bin Makhrama and ʿAbdur-Rahman bin Azhar . They told me to greet her on their behalf and to ask her about the offering of the two rakʿat after the ʿAsr prayer and to say to her, "We were informed that you offer those two rakʿat and we were told that the Prophet had forbidden offering them." Ibn ʿAbbas said, "I along with ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab used to beat the people whenever they offered them." I went to Aisha and told her that message. ʿAisha said, "Go and ask Um Salama about them." So I returned and informed them about her statement. They then told me to go to Um Salama with the same question with which t sent me to ʿAisha. Um Salama replied, "I heard the Prophet ﷺ forbidding them. Later I saw him offering them immediately after he prayed the ʿAsr prayer. He then entered my house at a time when some of the Ansari women from the tribe of Bani Haram were sitting with me, so I sent my slave girl to him having said to her, 'Stand beside him and tell him that Um Salama says to you, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! I have heard you forbidding the offering of these (two rakʿat after the ʿAsr prayer) but I have seen you offering them." If he waves his hand then wait for him.' The slave girl did that. The Prophet ﷺ beckoned her with his hand and she waited for him. When he had finished the prayer he said, "O daughter of Bani Umaiya! You have asked me about the two rakʿat after the ʿAsr prayer. The people of the tribe of ʿAbdul-Qais came to me and made me busy and I could not offer the two rakʿat after the Zuhr prayer. These (two rakʿat that I have just prayed) are for those (missed) ones.

I along with 'Umar b. al-Khattab dissuaded people to do so (to observe two rak'ahs of prayer). Kuraib said: I went to her ('A'isha) and conveyed to her the message with which I was sent. She said: (Better) ask Umm Salama. So I went to them (those who had sent him to Hadrat 'A'isha) and informed them about what she had said. They sent me back to Umm Salama with that with which I was sent to 'A'isha. Umm Salama said: I beard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibiting them, and then afterwards I saw him observing them. And when he observed them (two rak'ahs) he had already observed the 'Asr prayer. Then he (the Holy Prophet) came, while there were with me ladies of Banu Haram, a tribe of the Ansar and he (the Holy Prophet) observed them (the two rak'ahs). I sent a slave-girl to him asking her to stand by his side and say to him that Umm Salama says: Messenger of Allah, I heard you prohibiting these two rak'ahs, whereas I saw you observing them; and if he (the Holy Prophet) points with his hand (to wait), then do wait. The slave-girl did like that. He (the Holy Prophet) pointed out with his hand and she got aside and waited, and when he had finished (the prayer) he said: Daughter of Abu Umayya. you have asked about the two rak'ahs after the 'Asr prayer. Some people of 'Abu al-Qais came to me for embracing Islam and hindered me from observing the two rak'ahs which come after the noon prayer. So those are the two I have been praying.

That 'Abd Allah b. Abbas, 'Abd al-Rahman b. Azhar and al-Miswar b. Makhramah sent him to 'Aishah, wife of the Prophet ﷺ. They said: Convey our regards to her from all of us and ask her about the two rak'ahs after the 'Asr prayer, and tell her that we have been informed that she prays them, and we are told that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited them. I entered upon her and told her that for which they had sent me to her. She said: Ask Umm Salamah. I returned to them (Ibn 'Abbas and others) and informed them about her opinion. They sent me back to Umm Salamah with the same mission for which they had sent me to 'Aishah. Umm Salamah said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibiting them, but later on I saw him praying them. When he prayed them, he had offered the 'Asr prayer. He then came to me while a number of women from Banu Haram from the Ansar were sitting with me. He prayed these two rak'ahs. I sent a slave girl to him and I told her: Stand beside him and tell him that Umm Salamah has asked: Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I heard you prohibiting these two rak'ahs (after the afternoon prayer) but I see you praying them yourself. If he makes a sign with his hand, step backward from him. The slave girl did so. When he finished prayer, he said: O daughter of Abu Umayyah, you asked about the praying of two rak'ahs after the 'Asr prayer, in fact, some people of 'Abd al-Qais has come to me with the news that their people had embraced Islam. They hindered me from praying the two rak'ahs after Zuhr prayer. It is those two rak'ahs (which I offered after the 'Asr prayer)

[Machine] "What is this prayer that I have seen people praying and the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ did not pray or command it?" Muawiyah said, "That is what Ibn Zubayr advises them." Ibn Zubayr entered, greeted, and sat down. Muawiyah asked, "O Ibn Zubayr, what is this prayer that you are commanding people to pray? We did not see the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ pray it or command it." Ibn Zubayr replied, "Aisha, the mother of the believers, informed me that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to pray it in her house." Muawiyah then asked Ibn Zubayr and another man to go and ask Aisha about it. Ibn Zubayr said, "I went to her and asked her about it, and I informed her about what Ibn Zubayr said. She replied, 'I did not tell Ibn Zubayr that the Prophet prayed these two units of prayer after 'Asr (afternoon prayer) with me. I only told him that the Prophet prayed them at my house. So I asked her, 'Did you pray these two units of prayer that you did not used to pray?' She replied, 'Something came up and I was preoccupied with it, so I missed those two units of prayer after Dhuhr (noon prayer). Then Bilal called me for prayer, and I did not want to withhold the people, so I prayed those two units of prayer.' Then I returned and informed Muawiyah. Muawiyah said to him, 'Did he not say that he had prayed them?' Ibn Zubayr replied, 'We should not leave them.' Muawiyah said, 'You will always be a dissenter.'"

I along with 'Umar b. al-Khattab dissuaded people to do so (to observe two rak'ahs of prayer). Kuraib said: I went to her ('A'isha) and conveyed to her the message with which I was sent. She said: (Better) ask Umm Salama. So I went to them (those who had sent him to Hadrat 'A'isha) and informed them about what she had said. They sent me back to Umm Salama with that with which I was sent to 'A'isha. Umm Salama said: I beard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibiting them, and then afterwards I saw him observing them. And when he observed them (two rak'ahs) he had already observed the 'Asr prayer. Then he (the Holy Prophet) came, while there were with me ladies of Banu Haram, a tribe of the Ansar and he (the Holy Prophet) observed them (the two rak'ahs). I sent a slave-girl to him asking her to stand by his side and say to him that Umm Salama says: Messenger of Allah, I heard you prohibiting these two rak'ahs, whereas I saw you observing them; and if he (the Holy Prophet) points with his hand (to wait), then do wait. The slave-girl did like that. He (the Holy Prophet) pointed out with his hand and she got aside and waited, and when he had finished (the prayer) he said: Daughter of Abu Umayya. you have asked about the two rak'ahs after the 'Asr prayer. Some people of 'Abu al-Qais came to me for embracing Islam and hindered me from observing the two rak'ahs which come after the noon prayer. So those are the two I have been praying.

الدارمي:١٤٧٦أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عِيسَى حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ الْأَشَجِّ عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

That 'Abd Allah b. Abbas, 'Abd al-Rahman b. Azhar and al-Miswar b. Makhramah sent him to 'Aishah, wife of the Prophet ﷺ. They said: Convey our regards to her from all of us and ask her about the two rak'ahs after the 'Asr prayer, and tell her that we have been informed that she prays them, and we are told that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited them. I entered upon her and told her that for which they had sent me to her. She said: Ask Umm Salamah. I returned to them (Ibn 'Abbas and others) and informed them about her opinion. They sent me back to Umm Salamah with the same mission for which they had sent me to 'Aishah. Umm Salamah said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibiting them, but later on I saw him praying them. When he prayed them, he had offered the 'Asr prayer. He then came to me while a number of women from Banu Haram from the Ansar were sitting with me. He prayed these two rak'ahs. I sent a slave girl to him and I told her: Stand beside him and tell him that Umm Salamah has asked: Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I heard you prohibiting these two rak'ahs (after the afternoon prayer) but I see you praying them yourself. If he makes a sign with his hand, step backward from him. The slave girl did so. When he finished prayer, he said: O daughter of Abu Umayyah, you asked about the praying of two rak'ahs after the 'Asr prayer, in fact, some people of 'Abd al-Qais has come to me with the news that their people had embraced Islam. They hindered me from praying the two rak'ahs after Zuhr prayer. It is those two rak'ahs (which I offered after the 'Asr prayer) (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1273)

"عَنْ عبد اللهِ بن الْحَارث قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى مُعَاوِيَة مَعَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَأَدْنَاهُ وأجلسه مَعَه، ثُمَّ قَالَ لَه: ما ركعتان يُصَلِّيهمَا النَّاسُ بَعْد الْعَصْرِ؟ فَقَالَ: هَذَا مِمَّا يُفْتِيهم ابن الزُّبَيْرِ فَأَرْسَل إِلى ابن الزُّبَير فَقَالَ: أَخْبَرتْنِي بِهَذَا عَائِشة أَنَّ رسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَّاهُمَا، فَأَرْسَل إِلى عائِشَة فَقَالَتْ: أَخْبَرتْنِي بِذَلكَ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ، فَانْطَلَق الرَّسُولُ إِلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ فَقَالَتْ: يَرْحَمُهَا اللهُ مَا أَرَادَتْ إلى هَذَا قَد أَخْبَرتُهَا أنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنْهُمَا، وَبَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي بَيْتِي إذْ تَوَضَّأَ لِلُّظهرِ وَكَانَ كثر عْنِدَهُ الْمُهَاجرُونَ، وَكَانَ بَعَثَ سَاعِيًا فَاسْتَبطَأهُ فَبَيْنَمَا هُو كَذَلكَ إذْ ضرب الْبَاب فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ فَصَلَّى الظُّهَر ثُمَّ جَلَسَ يُقَسِّم مَا جَاءَ بِهِ حَتَّى فَرغَ عنْد الْعَصْرِ فَرآهُ بِلَالٌ فَأَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ، وَصَلَّى الْعَصْر، ثُمَّ

دَخَلَ بَيْتَي فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتْينِ فَسَأَلْتهُ عَنْهُمَا، فَقَالَ: هُمَا ركْعَتانِ كُنْت أُصَليهما بَعْد الظُّهْر فَشَغَلنِي عَمَّا كنت فِيهِ فَصَلَّيْتُهُمَا بَعد الْعَصْرِ، فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أُصَلِّيهُما فِي الْمَسْجِد وَالنَّاسُ يَرَوْنِي فَصَلَّيْتُهُمَا عِنْدَكِ".
