[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned away from two people, so the one with two hands said to him, "Did the prayer become shorter or did you forget, O Messenger of Allah?" So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Did the one with two hands speak the truth?" So the people said, "Yes." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up and prayed two more units of prayer, then he made the greeting (salam), then he made the takbir (saying Allahu Akbar), then he prostrated the same length as his prostration or longer, then he raised his head and made the takbir, then he prostrated the same length as his prostration or longer. Then he said, "The wording of their hadith is the same, except that Ash-Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, did not say 'the son of Abu Tamimah."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ انْصَرَفَ مِنَ اثْنَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ لَهُ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ أَقَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ أَمْ نَسِيتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَصَدَقَ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ؟ فَقَالَ النَّاسُ نَعَمْ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّى اثْنَتَيْنِ أُخْرَيَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ فَسَجَدَ مِثْلَ سُجُودِهِ أَوْ أَطْوَلَ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ فَسَجَدَ مِثْلَ سُجُودِهِ أَوْ أَطْوَلَ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِهِمَ سَوَاءٌ إِلَّا أَنَّ الشَّافِعِيَّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ لَمْ يَقُلْ ابْنِ أَبِي تَمِيمَةَ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in one of the evening (‘Asha) prayers, noon or afternoon. He led us in two Rak’ahs and gave the salutation. He then got up going towards a piece of wood which was placed in the front part of the mosque. He placed his hands upon it, one on the other, looking from his face as if he were angry. The people came out hastily saying: the prayer has been shortened. Abu Bakr and ‘Umar were among the people, but they were too afraid to speak to him. A man whom the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would call “ the possessor of arms” (Dhu al-Yadain) stood up (asking him): Have you forgotten. The Messenger of Allah, or has the prayer been shortened? He said: I have neither forgotten nor has it been shortened. He said : Messenger of Allah , you have forgotten. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned towards the people and asked : did the possessor of arms speak the truth? They made a sign , that is, yes. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ returned to his place and prayed the remaining two Rak’ahs, then gave the salutation; he then uttered the takbir and prostrated himself as usual or prolonged. He then raised his head and uttered the takbir; then he uttered the takbir and made prostration as usual or made longer (prostration). Then he raised his head his and uttered the takbir (Allah is most great). The narrator Muhammad was asked : Did he give the salutation (while prostrating) dueto forgetfulness? He said : I do not remember it from Abu Hurairah. But we Are sure that ‘Imran b. Husain (in his version) said; he then gave the salutation. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1008)   

بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِحْدَى صَلَاتِي الْعَشِيِّ الظُّهْرَ أَوِ الْعَصْرَ فَصَلَّى بِنَا رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ثُمَّ قَامَ إِلَى خَشَبَةٍ فِي مُقَدَّمِ الْمَسْجِدِ فَوَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ عَلَيْهَا إِحْدَاهُمَا عَلَى الْأُخْرَى يُعْرَفُ فِي وَجْهِهِ الْغَضَبُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ سَرَعَانُ النَّاسِ وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ قَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ قَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ وَفِي النَّاسِ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ ؓ فَهَابَاهُ أَنْ يُكَلِّمَاهُ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ كَانَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يُسَمِّيهِ ذَا الْيَدَيْنِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَسِيتَ أَمْ قَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ؟ فَقَالَ لَمْ أَنَسَ وَلَمْ تَقْصُرِ الصَّلَاةُ قَالَ بَلْ نَسِيتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَأَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ أَصَدَقَ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ؟ فَأَوْمَئُوا أَيْ نَعَمْ فَرَجَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى مَقَامِهِ فَصَلَّى الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْبَاقِيَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ وَسَجَدَ مِثْلَ سُجُودِهِ أَوْ أَطْوَلَ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ وَكَبَّرَ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ وَسَجَدَ مِثْلَ سُجُودِهِ أَوْ أَطْوَلَ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ وَكَبَّرَ قَالَ فَقِيلَ لِمُحَمَّدٍ سَلَّمَ فِي السَّهْوِ؟ فَقَالَ لَمْ أَحْفَظْهُ مِنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ وَلَكِنْ نُبِّئْتُ أَنَّ عِمْرَانَ بْنَ حُصَيْنٍ قَالَ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ فَأَوْمَئُوا إِلَّا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَلَمْ يَبْلُغْنَا إِلَّا مِنْ جِهَةِ أَبِي دَاوُدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَهُمْ ثِقَاتٌ أَئِمَّةٌ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed two rak'ahs after Dhuhr or Asr prayer, and then he finished and said, "Did the prayer become shorter, O Messenger of Allah, or did you forget?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied to his companions, "Which of the two do you think is more correct?" They said, "Yes." So he prayed two additional rak'ahs and performed the two prostrations of forgetfulness. Shu'bah said that Sa'd and I saw Urwah ibn Zubayr pray two rak'ahs after Maghrib prayer, then he made a speech, and then he completed his prayer and said, "This is what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did." This is the narration of Adam, but it does not include the story of Urwah.  

صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الظُّهْرَ أَوِ الْعَصْرَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ أَقَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَمْ نَسِيتَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِأَصْحَابِهِ أَحَقٌّ مَا يَقُولُ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ أُخْرَاوَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيِ السَّهْوِ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ قَالَ سَعْدٌ وَرَأَيْتُ عُرْوَةَ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ صَلَّى مِنَ الْمَغْرِبِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَسَلَّمَ وَتَكَلَّمَ ثُمَّ صَلَّى مَا بَقِيَ وَقَالَ هَكَذَا فَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ آدَمَ وَلَيْسَ فِي حَدِيثِ بِشْرٍ قِصَّةُ عُرْوَةَ  

[Machine] While I was praying the Dhuhr prayer with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished two Rak'ahs and stood up. Then a man from the Banu Sulaym stood up and said, "O Messenger of Allah, did you shorten the prayer or forget?" He ﷺ said, "I did not shorten it nor forget." The man said, "O Messenger of Allah, you only prayed two Rak'ahs." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Is what Dhu al-Yadayn saying true?" They said, "Yes." So he prayed two additional Rak'ahs with them. Then Damdam told me that he heard Abu Hurairah say, "Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prostrated twice." This is the wording of the narration of Ibn Sabiq.  

بَيْنَمَا أَنَا أُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الظُّهْرِ فَسَلَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَقَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ أَمْ نَسِيتَ؟ قَالَ لَمْ تَقْصُرْ وَلَمْ أَنَسَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّمَا صَلَّيْتَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَقًّا مَا يَقُولُ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ رَكْعَتَيْنِ أُخْرَيَيْنِ قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنِي ضَمْضَمٌ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ يَقُولُ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَجْدَتَيْنِ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ سَابِقٍ  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed the two rak'ahs then he ended the prayer and Thul Shimalain Ibn Abdul said, "O Messenger of Allah, did you shorten the prayer or did you forget?" So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I did not shorten the prayer nor did I forget." Then Thul Shimalain said, "Some of that did happen, O Messenger of Allah," so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned to the people and said, "Did what Thul Shimalain say is true?" They said, "Yes." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood and completed what remained of the prayer without making the two prostrations that are made if a person doubts during his prayer when people are present. Ibn Shihab said, "Saeed bin Musayyib informed me of this report from Abu Hurairah." Ibn Shihab also said, "And Abu Salamah bin Abdul Rahman and Abu Bakr bin Abdul Rahman bin Al-Harith and Ubaidullah bin Abdullah informed me from Abu Hurairah." Ibn Shihab said, "And this narration is disputed by Az-Zuhri. Saleh bin Kisaan narrated it, and it is the most authentic narration in our view regarding his Hadith from Ibn Abi Hathmah, which is Mursal, and his Hadith from the remaining companions is connected. Malik bin Anas transmitted it from him from Ibn Abi Hathmah, and also from Ibn Musayyib, Abu Salamah, and he attributed it to Yunus bin Yazid from him, excluding his narration from Ibn Abi Hathmah. And it is also transmitted by Ma'mar from him from Abu Salamah and Abu Bakr bin Sulayman bin Abi Hathmah."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَّى الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ فَقَالَ ذُو الشِّمَالَيْنِ ابْنُ عَبْدٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَقَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ أَمْ نَسِيتَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَمْ تَقْصُرِ الصَّلَاةُ وَلَمْ أَنَسَ فَقَالَ ذُو الشِّمَالَيْنِ قَدْ كَانَ بَعْضُ ذَلِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَأَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ أَصَدَقَ ذُو الشِّمَالَيْنِ؟ فَقَالُوا نَعَمْ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَتَى مَا بَقِيَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ وَلَمْ يَسْجُدِ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ اللَّتَيْنِ تُسْجَدَانِ إِذَا شَكَّ الرَّجُلُ فِي صَلَاتِهِ حِينَ لَقَاهُ النَّاسُ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ أَخْبَرَنِي هَذَا الْخَبَرَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ وَعُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِثْلَهُ وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ مُخْتَلَفٌ فِيهِ عَلَى الزُّهْرِيِّ فَرَوَاهُ صَالِحُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ هَكَذَا وَهُوَ أَصَحُّ الرِّوَايَاتِ فِيمَا نَرَى حَدِيثُهُ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ مُرْسَلٌ وَحَدِيثُهُ عَنِ الْبَاقِينَ مَوْصُولٌ وَأَرْسَلَهُ مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ عَنْهُ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ وَابْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ وَأَبِي سَلَمَةَ وَأَسْنَدَهُ يُونُسُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ عَنْهُ عَنْ جَمَاعَتِهِمْ دُونَ رِوَايَتِهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ وَأَسْنَدَهُ مَعْمَرٌ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ وَأَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ  

[Machine] The Prophet صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ offered the Dhuhr and Asr prayers and combined them in two units. After finishing, one of the companions called Dhu al-Shimalayn ibn 'Abd 'Amr, who was allied with the Banu Zuhrah tribe, said to him, "O Messenger of Allah, was the prayer shortened or did you forget?" The Prophet صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ asked, "What did Dhu al-Yadayn say?" They replied, "He is truthful, O Prophet of Allah." The Prophet صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ then completed the two units of prayer that he had abbreviated. Al-Zuhri said, "Then he performed two prostrations after finishing, which indicates that he did not hear them mentioning his prostrations, and he had already performed them until he was informed about it himself." There is a difference of opinion regarding the narration of this story from Ibn Abi Dhi'b from Sa'id al-Maqburi from Abu Huraira ؓ. However, it is confirmed from Muhammad ibn Sirin from Abu Huraira ؓ, and from Sa'd ibn Ibrahim from Abu Salamah from Abu Huraira ؓ that the Prophet صَلَّى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ performed these prostrations.  

صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الظُّهْرَ وَالْعَصْرَ فَسَهَا فِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَانْصَرَفَ فَقَالَ لَهُ ذُو الشِّمَالَيْنِ ابْنُ عَبْدِ عَمْرٍو وَكَانَ حَلِيفًا لِبَنِي زُهْرَةَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَخُفِّفَتِ الصَّلَاةُ أَمْ نَسِيتَ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَا يَقُولُ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ؟ قَالُوا صَدَقَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ قَالَ فَأَتَمَّ بِهُمُ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ اللَّتَيْنِ نَقَصَ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ بَعْدَ مَا فَرَغَ وَهَذَا يَدُلُّ عَلَى أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَسْمَعْهُمْ ذَكَرُوا لَهُ سَجْدَتَيْهِ وَقَدْ سَجَدَهُمَا حَتَّى أُخْبِرَ بِهِ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ وَاخْتُلِفَ عَلَى ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ فِي هَذِهِ الْقِصَّةِ وَقَدْ ثَبَتَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ ثُمَّ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ سَجَدَهُمَا  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in the 'Asr prayer and gave salutation after two rak'ahs. Dhu'l-Yadain (the possessor of long arms) stood up and said: Messenger of Allah, has the prayer been shortened or have you forgotten? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Nothing like this has happened (neither the prayer has been shortened nor have I forgotten). He (Dhu'l-Yadain) said: Messenger of Allah, something has definitely happened. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned towards people and said: Is Dhu'l-Yadain true (in his assertion)? They said: Messenger of Allah, he is true. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ completed the rest of the prayer. and then performed two prostrations while he was sitting after salutation. (Using translation from Muslim 573c)   

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ يَقُولُ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الْعَصْرِ فَسَلَّمَ فِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ أَقَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَمْ نَسِيتَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كُلُّ ذَلِكَ لَمْ يَكُنْ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ كَانَ قَبْلُ ذَلِكَ فَأَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَقَالَ أَصَدَقَ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ؟ فَقَالُوا نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَأَتَمَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ وَسَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ بَعْدَ السَّلَامِ  

‘O Messenger of Allah, has the prayer been shortened or did you forget?’ He said: ‘It has not been shortened and I did not forget.’ He said: ‘But you prayed two Rak’ah.’ He said: ‘Is what Dhul-Yadain says true?’ They said: ‘Yes.’ So he went forward and performed two Rak’ah and said the Salam, then he prostrated twice for prostrations of forgetfulness. (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1213)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَّى فَسَهَا فَسَلَّمَ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَقَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ أَمْ نَسِيتَ؟ قَالَ مَا قَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ وَمَا نَسِيتُ قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ صَلَّيْتَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ أَكَمَا قَالَ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ فَتَقَدَّمَ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيِ السَّهْوِ تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ أَبُو أُسَامَةَ حَمَّادُ بْنُ أُسَامَةَ وَهُوَ مِنَ الثِّقَاتِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed three rak'ahs of Asr prayer, then a man named Al-Khirbaq came and approached him. Al-Khirbaq had long hands, and he asked the Prophet, "Has the prayer become shorter, O Messenger of Allah?" The Prophet became angry and pulled his garment, asking, "Is that true?" They replied, "Yes." The Prophet then stood and performed that rak'ah, then he greeted with the salaam, then he prostrated two prostrations, then he greeted with the salaam. Ibn Ulayyah said, "Then he entered his house, and the rest of the hadeeth is according to its meaning."  

سَلَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي ثَلَاثِ رَكَعَاتٍ مِنَ الْعَصْرِ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ الْخِرْبَاقُ وَكَانَ طَوِيلَ الْيَدَيْنِ فَقَالَ أَقَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ فَخَرَجَ مُغْضَبًا يَجُرُّ رِدَاءَهُ فَقَالَ أَصَدَقَ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّى تِلْكَ الرَّكْعَةَ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْهِمَا ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ وَقَالَ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ مَنْزِلَهُ وَالْبَاقِي بِمَعْنَاهُ  

One day the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed and gave the salutation while a rak'ah of the prayer remained to be offered. A man went to him and said: You forgot to offer one rak'ah of prayer. Then he returned and entered the mosque and ordered Bilal (to utter the Iqamah). He uttered the Iqamah for prayer. He then led the people in one rak'ah of prayer. I stated it to the people. They asked me: Do you know who he was? I said: No, but I can recognise him if I see him. Then the man passed by me, I said: It is he. The people said: This is Talhah ibn Ubaydullah. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1023)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَّى يَوْمًا فَانْصَرَفَ وَقَدْ بَقِيَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ رَكْعَةٌ فَأَدْرَكَهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ نَسِيتَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ رَكْعَةً فَرَجَعَ فَدَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَأَمَرَ بِلَالًا فَأَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ رَكْعَةً فَأَخْبَرْتُ بِذَلِكَ النَّاسَ فَقَالُوا وَتَعْرِفُ الرَّجُلَ؟ قُلْتُ لَا إِلَّا أَنْ أَرَاهُ فَمَرَّ بِيَ فَقُلْتُ هُوَ هَذَا فَقَالُوا هَذَا طَلْحَةُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ  

[Machine] I prayed the Maghrib prayer with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He performed the tasleem after two units of prayer, then he left. A man said to him, "O Messenger of Allah, you made a mistake by performing the tasleem after two units of prayer." So he commanded Bilal to lead the prayer, and Bilal established the prayer. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ completed that unit of prayer. I asked the people about the man who said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that he made a mistake, and they said to me, "Do you know him?" I said, "I don't know him unless I see him." Then a man passed by me and I said, "This is him." They said, "This is Talhah ibn 'Ubaid Allah."  

صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَغْرِبَ فَسَهَا فَسَلَّمَ فِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّكَ سَهَوْتَ فَسَلَّمْتَ فِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَأَمَرَ بِلَالًا فَأَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ ثُمَّ أَتَمَّ تِلْكَ الرَّكْعَةَ فَسَأَلْتُ النَّاسَ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ الَّذِي قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّكَ سَهَوْتَ فَقِيلَ لِي تَعْرِفُهُ؟ قُلْتُ لَا إِلَّا أَنْ أَرَاهُ فَمَرَّ بِيَ رَجُلٌ فَقُلْتُ هُوَ هَذَا قَالُوا هَذَا طَلْحَةُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ  

[Machine] Then he came until he prayed the remaining Rak'ah, then he said the salutation, then he prostrated two prostrations. I hurriedly went to Ibn Abbas and asked him, he said, "By Allah, how did your father perform?". So I repeated it to him and he said, "He did not deviate from the Sunnah of his Prophet ﷺ." 3916 Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz informed us that Abu Muhammad Abdullah ibn Ishaq al-Baghwiy narrated to us that Abdullah ibn al-Hasan al-Hashimi narrated to us that Abdullah ibn Bakr al-Sahmi narrated to us that Hisham, the son of Hassan, narrated from 'Asl, from 'Ata', who mentioned its meaning and added, so we glorified (Allah) and he turned to us and said, "Did we not complete the prayer?" So we said with our heads, "Subhan Allah, no," and he did not mention anything more than what Ibn Abbas said. He did not say, "He did not deviate from the Sunnah of his Prophet ﷺ." 3917 Abu Saeed ibn Abu Amru informed us that Abu Abdullah al-Saffar narrated to us that Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Birtiyu al-Qadi narrated to us that Muslim ibn Ibrahim narrated to us that Harith ibn Ubayd, Abu Qudamah al-Iyadi narrated to us that Amir narrated from 'Ata', who said, "Ibn Zubair performed the Maghrib prayer and said the salutation in two units, then he stood and the people glorified (Allah), so he said, "What is wrong with them?" Then he came and performed one unit of prayer, then he prostrated two prostrations." The sheikh said, "And Ibn Zubair is Abdullah ibn Zubair."

[Machine] While we were praying with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , a man from the people sneezed, so I said, "May Allah have mercy on you." The people stared at me with their eyes, so I said, "May my mother lose me, what is the matter with you, staring at me?" They started hitting their thighs with their hands. When I saw them quieting down, I remained silent. After the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished his prayer, he turned to me and said, "By my father and mother, I have never seen a teacher before him or after him who taught better than him. By Allah, he did not scold me, insult me, or hit me." He said, "This prayer is not suitable for anything from the speech of the people. Rather, it is only for glorifying Allah, exalting Him, and reciting the Quran, or as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said."  

بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ نُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا عَطَسَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ فَقُلْتُ يَرْحَمُكَ اللهُ فَرَمَانِي الْقَوْمُ بِأَبْصَارِهِمْ فَقُلْتُ وَاثُكْلَ أُمِّيَّاهُ مَا شَأْنُكُمْ تَنْظُرُونَ إِلَيَّ؟ فَجَعَلُوا يَضْرِبُونَ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ عَلَى أَفْخَاذِهِمْ فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُهُمْ يُصَمِّتُونِي لَكِنِّي سَكَتُّ فَلَمَّا صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَبِأَبِي هُوَ وَأُمِّي مَا رَأَيْتُ مُعَلِّمًا قَبْلَهُ وَلَا بَعْدَهُ أَحْسَنَ تَعْلِيمًا مِنْهُ وَاللهِ مَا كَهَرَنِي وَلَا شَتَمَنِي وَلَا ضَرَبَنِي قَالَ إِنَّ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ لَا يَصْلُحُ فِيهَا شَيْءٌ مِنْ كَلَامِ النَّاسِ هَذَا إِنَّمَا هُوَ التَّسْبِيحُ وَالتَّكْبِيرُ وَقِرَاءَةُ الْقُرْآنِ أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ
