ذِكْرُ النَّوْعِ السَّادِسِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْخَوْفِ

ibnhibban:2881Aḥmad b. ʿAlī b. al-Muthanná > Abū Khaythamah > Saʿīd b. ʿĀmir > Ashʿath > al-Ḥasan > Abū Bakrah

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ lined them up in two rows and performed two units of prayer in the row behind, then he greeted and they lagged behind and others came forward, so he performed two units of prayer with them and then greeted. Thus, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed four units of prayer, while the Muslims performed two units of prayer each.  

ابن حبّان:٢٨٨١أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ عَنْ أَشْعَثَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ «صَفَّهُمْ صَفَّيْنِ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ بِالصَّفِّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ وَتَأَخَّرُوا وَتَقَدَّمَ الْآخَرُونَ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ فَكَانَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ وَلِلْمُسْلِمِينَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ»
