Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 6207 — some people of Kufah spoke ill of Sayyiduna
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ كُسَا الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، قَالَ : نَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ ، قَالَ : ثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ الطَّائِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ ، قَالَ : وَقَعَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ فِي سَعْدٍ عِنْدَ عُمَرَ ، وَقَالُوا : إِنَّهُ لَا يُحْسِنُ يُصَلِّي ، فَقَالَ : ادْعُوا لِي أَبَا إِسْحَاقَ ، فَلَمَّا جَاءَ ، قَالَ عُمَرُ : زَعَمَ هَؤُلَاءِ أَنَّكَ لَا تُحْسِنُ تُصَلِّي ؟ قَالَ : I " أَمَّا أَنَا فَإِنِّي أُصَلِّي بِهِمْ صَلَاةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، لَا أَخْرِمُ عَنْهَا ، أَرْكُدُ فِي الْأُولَيَيْنِ ، وَأَحْذِفُ فِي الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ I " قَالَ : كَذَاكَ الظَّنُّ بِكَ يَا أَبَا إِسْحَاقَ .
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that some people of Kufah spoke ill of Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) before the Commander of the Believers, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and said: "He does not lead the prayer well." So Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Call Abu Ishaq to me." When he came, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "These people claim that you do not lead the prayer well?" He replied: "As for me, I lead them in the very prayer of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and I do not fall short of it: I lengthen the standing in the first two rak'ahs and shorten the last two rak'ahs." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Abu Ishaq, that is what we think of you."
