Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 4731 — Lightening the prayer: those who used
٤٧٣١ - حدثنا وكيع عن عمرو بن عثمان بن موهب عن موسى بن طلحة عن عثمان بن أبي (العاص) (١) أن النبي ﷺ قال له: "أُمَّ قَوْمَكَ، وَمَنْ أَمَّ قَوْمًا فَلْيُخَفِّفْ فَإِنَّ فِيهُمْ الضعِيَفَ وَالكَبيرَ وَذا الْحَاجَةِ فَإِذا صَلَّيْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ (فَصَلِّ) (٢) كَيْفَ شِئْتَ" (٣).
Sayyiduna Uthman bin Abi al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Lead your people in prayer, and whoever leads a people in prayer should keep it short, for among the people are the weak, the elderly and those in a hurry for some need. But when you pray alone, make it as long as you wish."
