[Machine] "We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in 'Usfan when the polytheists, with Khalid bin Al-Walid among them, confronted us between us and the qiblah. So the Prophet ﷺ led us in the Dhuhr prayer and they said, 'This prayer that they are offering now is more beloved to them than their children and themselves.' Jabiril then came down with these verses between Dhuhr and Asr: 'And when you are among them and lead them in prayer.' The prayer came and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered them to take up arms. So we lined up behind him in two rows, then he performed one Rak'ah and we prayed together. Then he raised his head and we all raised our heads. Then he prostrated and the Prophet ﷺ was in the same row with those behind him, and others were guarding them in prayer. When they prostrated and stood up, the others sat down and prostrated, then he turned to them and said the Salam to them, then he left. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed it twice, once in 'Usfan and once in the land of Banu Sulaym."  

كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِعُسْفَانَ فَاسْتَقْبَلَنَا الْمُشْرِكُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ وَهُمْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الْقِبْلَةِ فَصَلَّى بِنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الظُّهْرَ فَقَالُوا قَدْ كَانُوا عَلَى حَالٍ لَوْ أَصَبْنَا غِرَّتَهُمْ فَقَالُوا يَأْتِي عَلَيْهِمُ الْآنَ صَلَاةٌ هِيَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْ أَبْنَائِهِمْ وَأَنْفُسِهِمْ قَالَ فَنَزَلَ جِبْرِيلُ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَاتِ بَيْنَ الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ {وَإِذَا كُنْتَ فِيهِمْ فَأَقَمْتَ لَهُمُ الصَّلَاةَ} قَالَ «فَحَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَأَمَرَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخَذُوا السِّلَاحَ فَصَفَفْنَا خَلْفَهُ صَفَّيْنِ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ فَرَكَعْنَا جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَرَفَعْنَا جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ سَجَدَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِالصَّفِّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ وَالْآخَرُونَ قِيَامٌ يَحْرُسُونَهُمْ فَلَمَّا سَجَدُوا وَقَامُوا جَلَسَ الْآخَرُونَ فَسَجَدُوا ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِمْ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَصَلَّاهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَرَّتَيْنِ مَرَّةً بِعُسْفَانَ وَمَرَّةً فِي أَرْضِ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ»  

"I heard Mujahid narrating from Abu Ayyash Az-Zuraqi"- Shu'bah said: "He had written it for me, and I read it before him, and I heard him narrating it; rather, I even memorized it." Ibn Bashshar said: "I memorized it from the book"- "The Prophet ﷺ was drawing up ranks facing the enemy in 'Usfan when the idolaters were led by Khalid bin Al-Walid. The Prophet ﷺ led them in praying Zuhr. The idolaters said: 'They have a prayer after this that is dearer to them than their wealth and sons.' Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ led them in praying 'Asr. He divided them into two rows, behind him. He led them all in bowing, then when they raised their heads he led the row that was closest to him in prostrating, while the others remained standing. When they raised their heads from prostration, the second row prostrated, as they had already bowed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Then the front row moved forward, so each of them took the place of his companion. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ led them all in bowing, then when they raised their heads from bowing, the row that was closest to him prostrated while the others remained standing, then when they had finished prostrating, the others prostrated, then the Prophet ﷺ said the taslim for all of them together. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1549)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ مَصَافَّ الْعَدُوِّ بِعُسْفَانَ وَعَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ فَصَلَّى بِهِمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الظُّهْرَ ثُمَّ قَالَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ إِنَّ لَهُمْ صَلَاةً هِيَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْ أَمْوَالِهِمْ وَأَبْنَائِهِمْ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَفَّهُمْ صَفَّيْنِ خَلْفَهُ فَرَكَعَ بِهِمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ جَمِيعًا فَلَمَّا رَفَعُوا رُءُوسَهُمْ سَجَدَ الصَّفُّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ وَقَامَ الْآخَرُونَ فَلَمَّا رَفَعُوا رُءُوسَهُمْ مِنَ السُّجُودِ سَجَدَ الصَّفُّ الْمُؤَخَّرُ لِرُكُوعِهِمْ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ تَأَخَّرَ الصَّفُّ الْمُقَدَّمُ وَتَقَدَّمَ الصَّفُّ الْمُؤَخَّرُ فَقَامَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا فِي مَقَامِ صَاحِبِهِ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ وَقَامَ الْآخَرُونَ فَلَمَّا فَرَغُوا مِنْ سُجُودِهِمْ سَجَدَ الْآخَرُونُ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَلَيْهِمْ  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , prayed the Dhuhr prayer with a garment on us. And on the polytheists was Khalid bin Al-Walid. The polytheists said, 'If their delusion had affected us, it would have come upon them now. Now they pray; prayer is dearer to them than their children and themselves.' Then Gabriel, ﷺ , came down with the verses that include the prayer of fear. 'So he lined up his companions behind him, two rows, and he said the takbeer, and we all said the takbeer, and he performed the rukoo' and we all performed the rukoo', and he performed the sujood and the row behind him also performed the sujood. When he stood up, the row behind him was delayed, so they stood in the place of the delayed row, and the delayed row moved forward, stood in their place, performed the rukoo' and we all performed the rukoo', raised up and we all raised up, and the row behind him performed the sujood."  

«صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الظُّهْرِ بِعُسْفَانَ» وَعَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ فَقَالَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ قَدْ كَانُوا عَلَى حَالٍ لَوْ أَصَبْنَا غِرَّتَهُمْ فَقَالُوا يَأْتِي عَلَيْهِمُ الْآنَ صَلَاةٌ هِيَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْ أَوْلَادِهِمْ وَأَنْفُسِهِمْ فَنَزَلَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ بِالْآيَاتِ الَّتِي فِيهَا صَلَاةُ الْخَوْفِ «فَصَفَّ أَصْحَابَهُ خَلْفَهُ صَفَّيْنِ فَكَبَّرَ وَكَبَّرْنَا جَمِيعًا وَرَكَعَ وَرَكَعْنَا جَمِيعًا وَسَجَدَ وَسَجَدَ الصَّفُّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ فَلَمَّا قَامَ تَأَخَّرَ الصَّفُّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ فَقَامُوا مَقَامَ الصَّفِّ الْمُؤَخَّرِ وَتَقَدَّمَ الصَّفُّ الْمُؤَخَّرُ فَقَامَ مَقَامَهُمْ فَرَكَعَ وَرَكَعْنَا جَمِيعًا وَرَفَعَ وَرَفَعْنَا جَمِيعًا وَسَجَدَ الصَّفُّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ فَلَمَّا جَلَسَ سَجَدَ الصَّفُّ الْمُؤَخَّرُ»
