Hadith 2075

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ قَالَ: صَلَّى مَعَانَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ صَلَاةَ الْعَصْرِ فَالْتَفَتَ فَإِذَا أُنَاسٌ يُصَلُّونَ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ، فَدَخَلَ وَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ فَأَوْسَعَ لَهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ عَلَى السَّرِيرِ، فَجَلَسَ مَعَهُ، قَالَ: مَا هَٰذِهِ الصَّلَاةُ الَّتِي رَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ يُصَلُّونَهَا وَلَمْ أَرَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّيهَا وَلَا أَمَرَ بِهَا؟ قَالَ: ذَٰكَ مَا يُفْتِيهِمُ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، فَدَخَلَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ فَسَلَّمَ فَجَلَسَ، فَقَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ: يَا ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ! مَا هَٰذِهِ الصَّلَاةُ الَّتِي تَأْمُرُ النَّاسَ يُصَلُّونَهَا؟ لَمْ نَرَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّاهَا وَلَا أَمَرَ بِهَا، قَالَ: حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ أُمُّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّاهَا عِنْدَهَا فِي بَيْتِهَا، قَالَ: فَأَمَرَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ وَرَجُلًا آخَرَ أَنْ نَأْتِيَ عَائِشَةَ فَنَسْأَلَهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهَا فَسَأَلْتُهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهَا بِمَا أَخْبَرَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْهَا، فَقَالَتْ: لَمْ يَحْفَظِ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، إِنَّمَا حَدَّثْتُهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى هَٰتَيْنِ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ عِنْدِي، فَسَأَلْتُهُ، قُلْتُ: إِنَّكَ صَلَّيْتَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ لَمْ تَكُنْ تُصَلِّيهِمَا؟ قَالَ: ((إِنَّهُ كَانَ أَتَانِي شَيْءٌ فَشُغِلْتُ فِي قِسْمَتِهِ عَنِ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ بَعْدَ الظُّهْرِ، وَأَتَانِي بِلَالٌ فَنَادَانِي بِالصَّلَاةِ فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَحْبِسَ النَّاسَ فَصَلَّيْتُهُمَا))، قَالَ فَرَجَعْتُ فَأَخْبَرْتُ مُعَاوِيَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ: أَلَيْسَ قَدْ صَلَّاهُمَا؟ فَلَا أَدَعُهُمَا، فَقَالَ لَهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ: لَا تَزَالُ مُخَالِفًا أَبَدًا (وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ: إِنَّكَ لَمُخَالِفٌ، لَا تَزَالُ تُحِبُّ الْخِلَافَ مَا بَقِيتَ)
Abdullah bin Harith says: Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) led the people in the Asr prayer. When he turned around, he saw some people performing prayer after Asr. He went home, and Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) also went to him, and I was with them. Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) made space for them on a cot, and they sat with him. He asked: What is this prayer that I saw people performing, even though neither did I see the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) perform this prayer, nor did he command it? They said: The one who has given the fatwa for this to the people is Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him). Then he was called, and he came and sat down after greeting. Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Ibn Zubair! What is the reality of this prayer that you command people to perform? We neither saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) perform this prayer, nor did he command it. He said: Umm al-Mu’minin Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated to me that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed this prayer in her house with her. Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) ordered me and another man to go to Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and ask her about this. So I went to Sayyida and asked her about it, and I told her what Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) was narrating from her. She said: Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) did not remember correctly. I told him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed two rak’ahs of prayer after Asr with me. I asked him: Today you have performed these two rak’ahs, but you did not use to perform them before? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Some wealth was brought to me, and because I was distributing it, I became occupied and missed the two rak’ahs after Dhuhr. In the meantime, Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) came to me and called me for the Asr prayer. At that time, I disliked stopping people because of these two rak’ahs, so now I have performed those two rak’ahs. I returned and informed Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) of the whole matter, but Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed these two rak’ahs, so I will not leave them. Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: You are always opposing; as long as you live, you will continue to prefer opposition.
