[Machine] And Al-Walid said, "I mentioned to Al-Awza'i regarding the prayer of Shurahbil ibn Al-Simt and his companions on the back of the beast, so he said, 'This is the custom among us when there is fear of being besieged.' Al-Walid then referred to the saying of the Prophet (pbuh): 'No one should pray Al-Asr except in the tribe of Qurayzah.'"

وَقَالَ الْوَلِيدُ ذَكَرْتُ لِلأَوْزَاعِيِّ صَلاَةَ شُرَحْبِيلَ بْنِ السِّمْطِ وَأَصْحَابِهِ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الدَّابَّةِ فَقَالَ كَذَلِكَ الأَمْرُ عِنْدَنَا إِذَا تُخُوِّفَ الْفَوْتُ، وَاحْتَجَّ الْوَلِيدُ بِقَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ: «لاَ يُصَلِّيَنَّ أَحَدٌ الْعَصْرَ إِلاَّ فِي بَنِي قُرَيْظَةَ».

bukhari:946ʿAbdullāh b. Muḥammad b. Asmāʾ > Jūwayriyah > Nāfiʿ > Ibn ʿUmar

When the Prophet ﷺ returned from the battle of Al-Ahzab (The confederates), he said to us, "None should offer the 'Asr prayer but at Bani Quraiza." The 'Asr prayer became due for some of them on the way. Some of them decided not to offer the Salat but at Bani Quraiza while others decided to offer the Salat on the spot and said that the intention of the Prophet ﷺ was not what the former party had understood. And when that was told to the Prophet ﷺ he did not blame anyone of them.  

البخاري:٩٤٦حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَسْمَاءَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جُوَيْرِيَةُ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ قَالَ

النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَنَا لَمَّا رَجَعَ مِنَ الأَحْزَابِ لاَ يُصَلِّيَنَّ أَحَدٌ الْعَصْرَ إِلاَّ فِي بَنِي قُرَيْظَةَ فَأَدْرَكَ بَعْضُهُمُ الْعَصْرَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لاَ نُصَلِّي حَتَّى نَأْتِيَهَا وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَلْ نُصَلِّي لَمْ يُرَدْ مِنَّا ذَلِكَ فَذُكِرَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَلَمْ يُعَنِّفْ وَاحِدًا مِنْهُمْ
