Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 4700 — Masarrah bin Ma'bad al-Lakhmi

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زُرْعَةَ قَالَ : نَا سَوَّارُ بْنُ عُمَارَةَ الرَّمْلِيُّ قَالَ : نَا مَسَرَّةُ بْنُ مَعْبَدٍ اللَّخْمِيُّ قَالَ : صَلَّى بِنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي كَبْشَةَ الْعَصْرَ ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ إِلَيْنَا بَعْدَ سَلَامِهِ ، فَأَعْلَمَنَا أَنَّهُ صَلَّى وَرَاءَ مَرْوَانَ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ ، فَسَجَدَ بِنَا مِثْلَ هَاتَيْنِ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ مَرْوَانُ : إِنِّي صَلَّيْتُ وَرَاءَ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ ، فَسَجَدَ بِنَا مِثْلَ هَاتَيْنِ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ عُثْمَانُ : إِنِّي كُنْتُ عِنْدَ نَبِيِّكُمْ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ ، فَقَالَ : يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ ، إِنِّي صَلَّيْتُ فَلَمْ أَدْرِ أَشَفَعْتُ أَمْ أَوْتَرْتُ ، ثُمَّ صَلَّيْتُ فَلَمْ أَدْرِ أَشَفَعْتُ أَمْ أَوْتَرْتُ ثَلَاثًا يَقُولُهَا ، فَأَجَابَهُ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : يَتَلَاعَبُ بِكُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ فِي صَلَاتِكُمْ ، فَمَنْ صَلَّى فَلَمْ يَدْرِ أَشَفَعَ أَمْ أَوْتَرَ فَلْيَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَيْنِ ، فَإِنَّهُمَا تَمَامُ صَلَاتِهِ .
لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ مَسَرَّةَ بْنِ مَعْبَدٍ إِلَّا سَوَّارُ بْنُ عُمَارَةَ ، وَلَا يُرْوَى عَنْ عُثْمَانَ إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ I " .
Masarrah bin Ma'bad al-Lakhmi (may Allah have mercy on him) relates that Yazid bin Abi Kabshah (may Allah have mercy on him) led us in the Asr prayer, then after giving the salam he turned towards us and informed us that he had prayed behind Marwan bin al-Hakam (may Allah have mercy on him), and he made us perform prostrations like these two prostrations. Then Marwan bin al-Hakam (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Indeed, I prayed behind Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him), and he made us perform prostrations like these two prostrations." Then Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I was with your Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when a man came to him and said: O Prophet of Allah! I prayed but could not tell whether I had prayed an even number of rak'ahs or an odd number. Then I prayed but could not tell whether I had prayed an even number or an odd number. He said this three times. So the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) answered him, and the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Satan plays with you in your prayer; so whoever prays and cannot tell whether he has prayed an even number or an odd number, let him perform two prostrations, for they are the completion of his prayer.'"
No one other than Sawwar bin Umarah narrated this hadith from Masarrah bin Ma'bad, and this report is narrated from Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain.
