12.4 As-Salat at the time of besieging a fort and at the time of meeting the enemy
١٢۔٤ باب الصَّلاَةِ عِنْدَ مُنَاهَضَةِ الْحُصُونِ وَلِقَاءِ الْعَدُوِّ
[Machine] "And Al-Awza'i said: If victory is imminent and they are unable to perform the prayer, they should pray silently each for oneself. If they are unable to make any gestures, they should delay the prayer until the fighting subsides or they are safe, and then they should perform two Rak'ahs. If they are unable to do so, they should pray one Rak'ah and two prostrations. The Takbeer should not be performed and they should delay it until they are safe. And Makhooul said the same. Anas said: I was present at the Battle of Hindah when the fighting intensified at dawn and they were unable to perform the prayer. We did not pray until after sunrise, and we performed it with Abu Musa. Then victory was granted to us. Anas also said: What pleases me about this worldly prayer and what is in it?"
وَقَالَ الأَوْزَاعِيُّ إِنْ كَانَ تَهَيَّأَ الْفَتْحُ، وَلَمْ يَقْدِرُوا عَلَى الصَّلاَةِ صَلَّوْا إِيمَاءً كُلُّ امْرِئٍ لِنَفْسِهِ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَقْدِرُوا عَلَى الإِيمَاءِ أَخَّرُوا الصَّلاَةَ، حَتَّى يَنْكَشِفَ الْقِتَالُ أَوْ يَأْمَنُوا، فَيُصَلُّوا رَكْعَتَيْنِ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَقْدِرُوا صَلَّوْا رَكْعَةً وَسَجْدَتَيْنِ، لاَ يُجْزِئُهُمُ التَّكْبِيرُ وَيُؤَخِّرُوهَا حَتَّى يَأْمَنُوا وَبِهِ قَالَ مَكْحُولٌ. وَقَالَ أَنَسٌ حَضَرْتُ عِنْدَ مُنَاهَضَةِ حِصْنِ تُسْتَرَ عِنْدَ إِضَاءَةِ الْفَجْرِ، وَاشْتَدَّ اشْتِعَالُ الْقِتَالِ، فَلَمْ يَقْدِرُوا عَلَى الصَّلاَةِ، فَلَمْ نُصَلِّ إِلاَّ بَعْدَ ارْتِفَاعِ النَّهَارِ، فَصَلَّيْنَاهَا وَنَحْنُ مَعَ أَبِي مُوسَى، فَفُتِحَ لَنَا. وَقَالَ أَنَسٌ وَمَا يَسُرُّنِي بِتِلْكَ الصَّلاَةِ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا.
