Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 4751 — Those who lightened the prayer
٤٧٥١ - حدثنا وكيع عن سفيان عن أبي الحويرث الزرقي عن علي بن (حسين) (١) قال: قال رسول اللَّه ﷺ: "إِنِّي لأَسْمَعُ بُكَاَء الصَّبِيِّ خَلْفي فَأُخَفِفُ شَفَقَةً أَنْ أَفْتِنَ أُمَّهُ" (٢).
Ali bin Husayn said that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Sometimes in the prayer I hear the crying of a child behind me, so I shorten the prayer, because I fear for the distress of his mother."
