Praying Asr on the way to Banu Qurayzah

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

The Prophet ﷺ said to us when he returned from al-Ahzab: "No one should pray Asr except in Banu Qurayzah."

Then Asr caught up with some of them on the wat. Some of them said, "We will not pray until we reach it," while others said, "Rather, we will pray; that was not intended of us." This was mentioned to the Prophet ﷺ, and he did not reproach any one 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.

bukhari:4119ʿAbdullāh b. Muḥammad b. Asmāʾ > Jūwayriyah b. Asmāʾ > Nāfiʿ > Ibn ʿUmar

On the day of Al-Ahzab (i.e. Clans) the Prophet ﷺ said, "None of you Muslims) should offer the ʿAsr prayer but at Banu Quraiza's place." The ʿAsr prayer became due for some of them on the way. Some of those said, "We will not offer it till we reach it, the place of Banu Quraiza," while some others said, "No, we will pray at this spot, for the Prophet ﷺ did not mean that for us." Later on It was mentioned to the Prophet ﷺ and he did not berate any of the two groups.

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَوْمَ 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 يُرِدْ مِنَّا ذَلِكَ فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَلَمْ يُعَنِّفْ وَاحِدًا مِنْهُمْ
