Praying Asr on the way to Banu Qurayzah

(1158) 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.

(١١٥٨) 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.
