عن صالح بن خوات رضي الله عنه عمن صلى مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم يوم ذات الرقاع صلاة الخوف : أن طائفة صلت معه وطائفة وجاه العدو ، فصلى بالذين معه ركعة ، ثم ثبت قائما وأتموا لأنفسهم ثم انصرفوا ، فصفوا وجاه العدو ، وجاءت الطائفة الأخرى ، فصلى بهم الركعة التي بقيت ، ثم ثبت جالسا ، وأتموا لأنفسهم ، ثم سلم بهم. متفق عليه وهذا لفظ مسلم ووقع في المعرفة لابن منده عن صالح بن خوات عن أبيه.
Narrated Salih bin Khawwat on the authority of one who offered the Fear prayer with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) at the battle of Dhatur-Riqa' that a group (of the army) formed a line along with him and a group faced the enemy. He (ﷺ) led the group which was with him in a Rak'ah, and then remained standing while they finished their prayer by themselves. They then departed and lined up facing the enemy, and the other party came. He led them in the remaining Rak'a (of his prayer), after which he remained sitting while they finished their prayer by themselves. He then led them in uttering the Taslim (salutation). [Agreed upon; and this is the wording of Muslim]. This (Hadith) has been reported in al-Ma'rifah of Ibn Mundah: from Salih ibn Khawwat, from his father.

Takhrij:
«أخرجه البخاري، المغازي، باب غزوة ذات الرقاع، حديث:4131، ومسلم، صلاة المسافرين، باب صلاة الخوف، حديث:841.»©Explanation:
➊ The prayer of fear (Salat al-Khawf) has been performed in several ways.
The prayer was performed according to the circumstances and situation.
The form mentioned in the above hadith is that the Imam led each group in one rak‘ah, and each group performed one rak‘ah on their own.
The first group gave salam (ended the prayer) by themselves, but the second group did so with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
➋ According to Imam Abu Hanifah, Imam Shafi‘i, Imam Ahmad rahimahumullah, and the majority, it is permissible to perform the prayer of fear in both travel and residence.
Imam Malik rahimahullah stipulates the condition of travel for the prayer of fear.
➌ From the Noble Qur’an, it is understood that in the verse: ﴿ اِذَا ضَرَبْتُمْ فِی الْاَرْضِ… ﴾ al-ayah (al-Nisa’ 4:101), there are two conditions: one is travel, and the other is fear of the enemy.
However, the position of the majority is that the prayer of fear and the shortened prayer (qasr) are two separate prayers.
For qasr during travel, the condition of fear of the enemy is not required, and for the prayer of fear, the condition of travel is not required.
To attach any condition to both prayers is meaningless.
