Hadith 638
وحَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ سَوَّادٍ الْعَامِرِيُّ ، وَحَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، قَالَا : أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ ، أَنَّ ابْنَ شِهَابٍ أَخْبَرَهُ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَتْ : أَعْتَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةً مِنَ اللَّيَالِي بِصَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ ، وَهِيَ الَّتِي تُدْعَى الْعَتَمَةَ ، فَلَمْ يَخْرُجْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، حَتَّى قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ : " نَامَ النِّسَاءُ وَالصِّبْيَانُ ، فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ لِأَهْلِ الْمَسْجِدِ حِينَ خَرَجَ عَلَيْهِمْ : مَا يَنْتَظِرُهَا أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الأَرْضِ غَيْرُكُمْ ، وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَفْشُوَ الإِسْلَامُ فِي النَّاسِ " ، زَادَ حَرْمَلَةُ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ ، قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ : وَذُكِرَ لِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : وَمَا كَانَ لَكُمْ أَنْ تَنْزُرُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ ، وَذَاكَ حِينَ صَاحَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ .
'A'isha. the wife of the Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) , reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) deferred one night the 'Isha' prayer. And this is called 'Atama. And the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) did not come out till Umar bin Khattab told (him) that the women and children had gone to sleep. So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came out towards them and said to the people of the mosque: None except you from the people of the earth waits for it (for the night prayer at this late hour), and it was before Islam had spread amongst people. And in the narration transmitted by Ibn Shihab the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) is reported to have said: It is not meant that you should compel the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) for prayer. And (this he said) when 'Umar bin Khattab called (the Holy Prophet) in a loud voice.
Hadith 638
وحَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ شُعَيْبِ بْنِ اللَّيْثِ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ جَدِّي ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ مِثْلَهُ ، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ قَوْلَ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، وَذُكِرَ لِي وَمَا بَعْدَهُ .
A hadith like this has been narrated by Ibn Shihab with the same chain of transmitters, but therein no mention has been made of the words of al-Zuhri: It was narrated to me, and that which followed.
Hadith 638
حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاق بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ كلاهما ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ بَكْرٍ . ح ، قَالَ : وحَدَّثَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ . ح ، قَالَ : وحَدَّثَنِي حَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ وَأَلْفَاظُهُمْ مُتَقَارِبَةٌ ، قَالُوا جَمِيعًا : عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ ، عَنْ أُمِّ كُلْثُومٍ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، أَنَّهَا أَخْبَرَتْهُ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : " أَعْتَمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ ، حَتَّى ذَهَبَ عَامَّةُ اللَّيْلِ ، وَحَتَّى نَامَ أَهْلُ الْمَسْجِدِ ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَصَلَّى ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّهُ لَوَقْتُهَا لَوْلَا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي " ، وَفِي حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ : لَوْلَا أَنَّ يَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي .
'A'isha reported: The Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) one night delayed (observing the 'Isha' prayer) till a great part of the night was over and the people in the mosque had gone to sleep. He (the Holy Prophet) then came out and observed prayer and said: This is the proper time for it; were it not that I would impose a burden on my people (I would normally pray at this time). In the hadith transmitters by 'Abdul Razzaq (the words are): "Were it not that it would impose burden on my people."
Hadith 639
وحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، وَإِسْحَاق بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، قَالَ إِسْحَاق ، أَخْبَرَنَا وَقَالَ زُهَيْرٌ : حَدَّثَنَا : جَرِيرٌ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : مَكَثْنَا ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ نَنْتَظِرُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِصَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ الآخِرَةِ ، فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْنَا ، حِينَ ذَهَبَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ أَوْ بَعْدَهُ ، فَلَا نَدْرِي أَشَيْءٌ شَغَلَهُ فِي أَهْلِهِ ، أَوْ غَيْرُ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ حِينَ خَرَجَ : " إِنَّكُمْ لَتَنْتَظِرُونَ صَلَاةً ، مَا يَنْتَظِرُهَا أَهْلُ دِينٍ غَيْرُكُمْ ، وَلَوْلَا أَنْ يَثْقُلَ عَلَى أُمَّتِي ، لَصَلَّيْتُ بِهِمْ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ " ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ الْمُؤَذِّنَ ، فَأَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ وَصَلَّى " .
'Abdullah bin 'Umar (RA) reported: We waited one night in expectation of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) for the last prayer of the night, and he came out to us when a third of the night had passed even after that. We do not know whether he had been occupied with family business or something else. When he came out he said: You are waiting for prayer, for which the followers of no other religion wait, except you. Were it not a burden for my Ummah, I would have led them (in the 'Isha' prayer) at this hour. He then ordered the Mu'adhdhin (to call for prayer) and then stood up for prayer and observed prayer.
Hadith 639
وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، شُغِلَ عَنْهَا لَيْلَةً فَأَخَّرَهَا ، حَتَّى رَقَدْنَا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَيْقَظْنَا ، ثُمَّ رَقَدْنَا ، ثُمَّ اسْتَيْقَظْنَا ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الأَرْضِ اللَّيْلَةَ ، يَنْتَظِرُ الصَّلَاةَ غَيْرُكُمْ " .
'Abdullah bin 'Umar reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was one night occupied (in some work) and he delayed it ('Isha' prayer) till we went to sleep in the mosque. We then woke up and again went to sleep and again woke up. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then came to us and said: None among the people of the earth except you waits for prayer in the night.
Hadith 640
وحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ الْعَبْدِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزُ بْنُ أَسَدٍ الْعَمِّيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، أَنَّهُمْ سَأَلُوا أَنَسًا ، عَنْ خَاتَمِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : أَخَّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْعِشَاءَ ، ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ إِلَى شَطْرِ اللَّيْلِ ، أَوْ كَادَ يَذْهَبُ شَطْرُ اللَّيْلِ ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ ، فَقَالَ : " إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ صَلَّوْا وَنَامُوا ، وَإِنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَزَالُوا فِي صَلَاةٍ ، مَا انْتَظَرْتُمُ الصَّلَاةَ " ، قَالَ أَنَسٌ : كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى وَبِيصِ خَاتَمِهِ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ ، وَرَفَعَ إِصْبَعَهُ الْيُسْرَى بِالْخِنْصِرِ .
Thabit reported: They (the believers) asked Anas about the ring of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he said: One night the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) delayed (observing) the 'Isha' prayer up to the midnight or midnight was about to be over. He then came and said: (Other) people have offered prayers and slept, but you are constantly in prayer as long as you wait for prayer. Anas said: I perceive as if I am seeing the luster of his silver ring, and lifted his small left finger (in order to show how the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) had lifted it).
Hadith 640
وحَدَّثَنِي حَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زَيْدٍ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ ، حَدَّثَنَا قُرَّةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : " نَظَرْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةً ، حَتَّى كَانَ قَرِيبٌ مِنْ نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَصَلَّى ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا بِوَجْهِهِ ، فَكَأَنَّمَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى وَبِيصِ خَاتَمِهِ فِي يَدِهِ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ " .
Anas bin Malik (RA) reported: We waited for the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) one night, till it was about midnight. He (the Holy Prophet) came and observed prayer and then turned his face towards us, as it I was seeing the lustre of the silver ring on his finger.
Hadith 640
وحَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ الْعَطَّارُ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَجِيدِ الْحَنَفِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا قُرَّةُ ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ ، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ : ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا بِوَجْهِهِ .
This hadith has been narrated by Qurra with the same chain of transmitters, but therein he did not mention: "He turned his face towards us.
Hadith 641
وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ الأَشْعَرِيُّ ، وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ ، عَنْ بُرَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ أَنَا وَأَصْحَابِي الَّذِينَ قَدِمُوا مَعِي فِي السَّفِينَةِ ، نُزُولًا فِي بَقِيعِ بُطْحَانَ ، وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ ، فَكَانَ يَتَنَاوَبُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عِنْدَ صَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ ، كُلَّ لَيْلَةٍ نَفَرٌ مِنْهُمْ ، قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى : فَوَافَقْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَا وَأَصْحَابِي ، وَلَهُ بَعْضُ الشُّغْلِ فِي أَمْرِهِ ، حَتَّى أَعْتَمَ بِالصَّلَاةِ ، حَتَّى ابْهَارَّ اللَّيْلُ ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ ، فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ ، قَالَ لِمَنْ حَضَرَهُ عَلَى رِسْلِكُمْ : " أُعْلِمُكُمْ وَأَبْشِرُوا ، أَنَّ مِنْ نِعْمَةِ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ ، أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنَ النَّاسِ أَحَدٌ يُصَلِّي هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ غَيْرُكُمْ " ، أَوَ قَالَ : مَا صَلَّى هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُكُمْ ، لَا نَدْرِي أَيَّ الْكَلِمَتَيْنِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى : فَرَجَعْنَا فَرِحِينَ بِمَا سَمِعْنَا مِنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ .
Abu Musa reported: I and my companions who had sailed along with me in the boat landed with me in the valley of Buthan while the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was staying in Madinah. A party of people amongst them went to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) every night at the time of the 'Isha' prayer turn by turn. Abu Musa said: (One night) we (I and my companions) went to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he was occupied in some matter till there was a delay in prayer so much so that it was the middle of the night. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then came out and led them (Musa's companions) in prayer. And when he had observed his prayer he said to the audience present: Take it easy, I am going to give you information and glad tidings that it is the blessing of Allah upon you for there is none among the people, except you, who prays at this hour (of the night), or he said: None except you observed prayer at this (late) hour. He (i. e. the narrator) said: I am not sure which of these two sentences he actually uttered. Abu Musa, said: We came back happy for what we heard from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) .
Hadith 642
وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ لِعَطَاءٍ : أَيُّ حِينٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ الْعِشَاءَ ، الَّتِي يَقُولُهَا النَّاسُ الْعَتَمَةَ إِمَامًا وَخِلْوًا ؟ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ، يَقُولُ : أَعْتَمَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ الْعِشَاءَ ، قَالَ : حَتَّى رَقَدَ نَاسٌ ، وَاسْتَيْقَظُوا ، وَرَقَدُوا ، وَاسْتَيْقَظُوا ، فَقَامَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ، فَقَالَ : الصَّلَاةَ ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ : فَخَرَجَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ الآنَ ، يَقْطُرُ رَأْسُهُ مَاءً ، وَاضِعًا يَدَهُ عَلَى شِقِّ رَأْسِهِ ، قَالَ : " لَوْلَا أَنْ يَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي ، لَأَمَرْتُهُمْ أَنْ يُصَلُّوهَا " ، كَذَلِكَ قَالَ : فَاسْتَثْبَتُّ عَطَاءً ، كَيْفَ وَضَعَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدَهُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ ، كَمَا أَنْبَأَهُ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ، فَبَدَّدَ لِي عَطَاءٌ بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِهِ شَيْئًا مِنْ تَبْدِيدٍ ، ثُمَّ وَضَعَ أَطْرَافَ أَصَابِعِهِ عَلَى قَرْنِ الرَّأْسِ ، ثُمَّ صَبَّهَا يُمِرُّهَا كَذَلِكَ عَلَى الرَّأْسِ ، حَتَّى مَسَّتْ إِبْهَامُهُ طَرَفَ الأُذُنِ مِمَّا يَلِي الْوَجْهَ ، ثُمَّ عَلَى الصُّدْغِ ، وَنَاحِيَةِ اللِّحْيَةِ لَا يُقَصِّرُ ، وَلَا يَبْطِشُ بِشَيْءٍ إِلَّا كَذَلِكَ ، قُلْتُ لِعَطَاءٍ : كَمْ ذُكِرَ لَكَ أَخَّرَهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَتَئِذٍ ؟ قَالَ : لَا أَدْرِي ، قَالَ عَطَاءٌ : أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَهَا إِمَامًا ، وَخِلْوًا مُؤَخَّرَةً ، كَمَا صَلَّاهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، لَيْلَتَئِذٍ ، فَإِنْ شَقَّ عَلَيْكَ ذَلِكَ ، خِلْوًا ، أَوْ عَلَى النَّاسِ فِي الْجَمَاعَةِ ، وَأَنْتَ إِمَامُهُمْ ، فَصَلِّهَا وَسَطًا لَا مُعَجَّلَةً ، وَلَا مُؤَخَّرَةً .
Ibn Juraij reported: I said to Ata': Which time do you deem fit for me to say the 'Isha' prayer, -as an Imam or alone, -that time which is called by people 'Atama? He said: I heard Ibn 'Abbas saying: The Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) one night delayed the 'Isha' prayer till the people went to sleep. They woke up and again went to sleep and again woke up. Then 'Umar bin Khattab stood up and said (loudly) "Prayer." Ata' further reported that Ibn 'Abbas said: The Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) came out, and as if I am still seeing him with water trickling from his head, and with his hand placed on one side of the head, and he said: Were it not hard for my Ummah, I would have ordered them to observe this prayer like this (i. e. at late hours). I inquired from 'Ata' how the Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) placed his hand upon his head as Ibn Abbas (RA) had informed. So Ata' spread his fingers a little and then placed the ends of his fingers on the side of his head. He then moved them like this over his head till the thumb touched that part of the ear which is near the face and then it (went) to the earlock and the part of the beard. It (the hand) neither held nor caught anything but this is how (it moved). I said to Ata': Was it mentioned to you (by Ibn Abbas (RA) ) how long did the Apostle (ﷺ) delay it (the prayer) during that night? He said: I do not know (I cannot give you the exact time). Ali' said: I love that I should say prayer, whether as an Imam or alone at delayed hours as the Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) said that night, but if it is hard upon you in your individual capacity or upon people in the congregation and you are their Imam, then say prayer ('Isha') at the middle hours neither too early nor too late.
Hadith 643
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى ، وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ ، وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، قَالَ يَحْيَى : أَخْبَرَنَا وَقَالَ الآخَرَانِ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، " يُؤَخِّرُ صَلَاةَ الْعِشَاءِ الآخِرَةِ " .
Jabir bin ahadeeth reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) postponed the last 'Isha' prayer.
Hadith 643
وحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، وَأَبُو كَامِلٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، " يُصَلِّي الصَّلَوَاتِ نَحْوًا مِنْ صَلَاتِكُمْ ، وَكَانَ يُؤَخِّرُ الْعَتَمَةَ بَعْدَ صَلَاتِكُمْ شَيْئًا ، وَكَانَ يُخِفُّ الصَّلَاةَ " ، وَفِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي كَامِلٍ : يُخَفِّفُ .
Jabir bin ahadeeth reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to observe prayers like your prayers, but he would delay the prayer after nightfall to a little after the time you observed it, and he would shorten the prayer.
Hadith 644
وحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ ، قَالَ زُهَيْرٌ : حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَبِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " لَا تَغْلِبَنَّكُمْ الأَعْرَابُ عَلَى اسْمِ صَلَاتِكُمْ ، أَلَا إِنَّهَا الْعِشَاءُ ، وَهُمْ يُعْتِمُونَ بِالإِبِلِ " .
'Abdullah bin 'Umar reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: Let the bedouin not gain upper hand over you in regard to the name of your prayer. See the night prayer should be called 'Isha' and the bedouins call it Atama (because) they milk their camels late.
Hadith 644
وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي لَبِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَا تَغْلِبَنَّكُمُ الأَعْرَابُ عَلَى اسْمِ صَلَاتِكُمُ الْعِشَاءِ ، فَإِنَّهَا فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ الْعِشَاءُ ، وَإِنَّهَا تُعْتِمُ بِحِلَابِ الإِبِلِ " .
Ibn 'Umar said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Let the bedouin not gain upper hand over you in regard to the name of your prayer, i. e. night prayer, for it is mentioned 'Isha' in the Book of Allah (i. e. the Qur'an). (The bedouin call it 'Atama because) they make delay in milling their she-camels.
