bukhari:5572 – Abū ʿUbayd

˹in continuation of Bukhari 5571˺ then I witnessed the Eid with Uthman b. Affan, and that was on a Friday. He offered the prayer before the sermon, saying, "O people! Today you have two Eids together, so whoever of those who live at al-Awali (suburbs) would like to wait for the Jumuah prayer, he may wait, and whoever would like to return ˹home˺ is granted my permission to do so."  

البخاري:٥٥٧٢ – قَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ

ثُمَّ شَهِدْتُ مَعَ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ فَكَانَ ذَلِكَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَصَلَّى قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ ثُمَّ خَطَبَ فَقَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ هَذَا يَوْمٌ قَدِ اجْتَمَعَ لَكُمْ فِيهِ عِيدَانِ فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَنْتَظِرَ الْجُمُعَةَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعَوَالِي فَلْيَنْتَظِرْ وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ فَقَدْ أَذِنْتُ لَهُ

I attended the Eid with Uthman b. Affan ᴿᴬ. He came, performed the prayer, then turned and delivered a sermon. He said, "On this day of yours, two Eids have coincided. So, whoever among the people of the higher areas wishes to wait for the Friday prayer may wait for it, and whoever wishes to return may do so, for I have granted permission for him."

شَهِدْتُ الْعِيدَ مَعَ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ ؓ فَجَاءَ فَصَلَّى ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَخَطَبَ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ قَدْ اجْتَمَعَ لَكُمْ فِي يَوْمِكُمْ هَذَا عِيدَانِ فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعَالِيَةِ أَنْ يَنْتَظِرَ الْجُمُعَةَ فَلْيَنْتَظِرْهَا مَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ فَلْيَرْجِعْ فَقَدْ أَذِنْتُ لَهُ

"أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ هَذَا يَوْمٌ قَد اجتمع لَكُمْ فيه عيدَانِ، فَمَنْ أحَبَّ أَن يَشْهَدَ مَعَنَا الْجُمُعَةَ فليَفْعَلْ، وَمَنْ أحَبَّ أَنْ يَنْصَرِفَ فليَفْعَلْ ".  

[حم] أحمد [د] أبو داود [ن] النسائي [هـ] ابن ماجة [ك] الحاكم في المستدرك عن زيد بن أَرقم قال: اجتمع عيدان عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُول الله ﷺ فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحد، فصَلَّى العيد في أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ، وَقَال: أَيُّهَا الناس وذكره
