bukhari:350ʿAbdullāh b. Yūsuf > Mālik > Ṣāliḥ b. Kaysān > ʿUrwah b. al-Zubayr > ʿĀʾishah

the mother of believers: Allah enjoined the prayer when He enjoined it, it was two rakʿat only (in every prayer) both when in residence or on journey. Then the prayers offered on journey remained the same, but (the rakʿat of) the prayers for non-travelers were increased.  

البخاري:٣٥٠حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَتْ

فَرَضَ اللَّهُ الصَّلاَةَ حِينَ فَرَضَهَا رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي الْحَضَرِ وَالسَّفَرِ فَأُقِرَّتْ صَلاَةُ السَّفَرِ وَزِيدَ فِي صَلاَةِ الْحَضَرِ

The prayer was prescribed as two rak'ahs, two rak'ahs both in journey and at the place of residence. The prayer while travelling remained as it was (originally prescribed), but an addition was made in the prayer (observed) at the place of residence.  

مسلم:٦٨٥aحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ فُرِضَتِ الصَّلاَةُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي الْحَضَرِ وَالسَّفَرِ فَأُقِرَّتْ صَلاَةُ السَّفَرِ وَزِيدَ فِي صَلاَةِ الْحَضَرِ

The prayer was prescribed as consisting of two rak'ahs both when one was resident and when travelling. The prayer while travelling was left according to the original prescription and the prayer of one who was resident was enhanced.

malik:9-10Mālik > Ṣāliḥ b. Kaysān > ʿUrwah b. al-Zubayr

Yahya related to me from Malik from Salih ibn Kaysan from Urwa ibn az-Zubayr that A'isha, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ said, "The prayer was prescribed as two rakas, both when settled and when travelling. Then the travelling prayer was kept as it was, and an increase was made in the prayer when settled. "  

مالك:٩-١٠وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ فُرِضَتِ الصَّلاَةُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي الْحَضَرِ وَالسَّفَرِ فَأُقِرَّتْ صَلاَةُ السَّفَرِ وَزِيدَ فِي صَلاَةِ الْحَضَرِ

[Machine] The prayer was prescribed as two units, but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ added in the prayer of noon and left the prayer of travel as it is.  

أحمد:٢٥٩٦٧حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ اللَّيْثِيُّ عَنْ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

فُرِضَتِ الصَّلَاةُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَزَادَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي صَلَاةِ الْحَضَرِ وَتَرَكَ صَلَاةَ السَّفَرِ عَلَى نَحْوِهَا  

ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ عَدَدَ الصَّلَوَاتِ فِي الْحَضَرِ وَالسَّفَرِ فِي أَوَّلِ مَا فُرِضَ كَانَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ

The prayer was prescribed as consisting of two rak'ahs both when one was resident and when travelling. The prayer while travelling was left according to the original prescription and the prayer of one who was resident was enhanced. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1198)  

ابن حبّان:٢٧٣٦أَخْبَرَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ «فُرِضَتِ الصَّلَاةُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي الْحَضَرِ وَالسَّفَرِ فَأُقِرَّتْ صَلَاةُ السَّفَرِ وَزِيدَ فِي الْحَضَرِ»

[Machine] I heard Al-Sa'ib bin Yazid Al-Kindi, the son of the daughter of Al-Namir, saying, "Prayer was initially prescribed as two units of prayer, then it was increased during the Salah of Al-Hadar (residing) and the prayer of Al-Safar (travel) was made shorter."
