عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ آلِ خَالِدِ بْنِ أَسِيدٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِابْنِ عُمَرَ: إِنَّا نَجِدُ صَلَاةَ الْخَوْفِ فِي الْقُرْآنِ وَصَلَاةَ الْحَضَرِ وَلَا نَجِدُ صَلَاةَ السَّفَرِ؟ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى بَعَثَ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلَا نَعْلَمُ شَيْئًا، فَإِنَّمَا نَفْعَلُ كَمَا رَأَيْنَا مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَفْعَلُ
A man from the family of Khalid bin Asid says: I said to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), "We find mention of the prayer of fear and presence in the Noble Qur'an, but we do not find any mention of the prayer of travel?" Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Indeed, Allah Almighty sent Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and we knew nothing. Now we will do only what we saw him (peace and blessings be upon him) doing.
