ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ صَلَاةَ الْحَضَرِ زِيدَ فِيهَا خَلَا الْغَدَاةِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ

[Machine] "The prayers for traveling and residing were prescribed as two units. However, when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ established the prayer, he prayed four units. The Fajr prayer was left behind due to the lengthy recitation, and the Maghrib prayer was left behind because it is the odd prayer of the day."  

ابن حبّان:٢٧٣٨أَخْبَرَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي مَعْشَرٍ بِحَرَّانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ الْعَطَّارُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَحْبُوبُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

«فُرِضَتْ صَلَاةُ السَّفَرِ وَالْحَضَرِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَلَمَّا أَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَكْعَتَانِ رَكْعَتَانِ وَتُرِكَتْ صَلَاةُ الْفَجْرِ لِطُولِ الْقِرَاءَةِ وَصَلَاةُ الْمَغْرِبِ لِأَنَّهَا وِتْرُ النَّهَارِ»

[Machine] The prayer of two units (Rak'ahs) has been prescribed in Mecca. But when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived in Medina, he added two more units to each two units of prayer, except for the Maghrib prayer, as it is the odd prayer of the day. And the Fajr prayer is lengthy in recitation. He also said that when he used to travel, he would pray the first prayer.  

أحمد:٢٦٠٤٢حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ عَنْ دَاوُدَ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

قَدْ فُرِضَتِ الصَّلَاةُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ بِمَكَّةَ فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ زَادَ مَعَ كُلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ إِلَّا الْمَغْرِبَ فَإِنَّهَا وِتْرُ النَّهَارِ وَصَلَاةَ الْفَجْرِ لِطُولِ قِرَاءَتِهِا قَالَ وَكَانَ إِذَا سَافَرَ صَلَّى الصَّلَاةَ الْأُولَى
