Musnad Abi Ya'la 1770 — We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْفُرَاتُ بْنُ أَبِي الْفُرَاتِ الْقُرَشِيُّ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ عَطَاءَ بْنَ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَنِمْتُ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَيْقَظْتُ ، ثُمَّ نِمْتُ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَيْقَظْتُ ، فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، فَقَالَ : الصَّلَاةَ الصَّلَاةَ ، قَالَ : فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَرَأْسُهُ يَقْطُرُ ، فَصَلَّى ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : لَوْلَا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي ، وَلَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي ، لَأَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ تُصَلُّوا هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ ، قَالَ : الْفُرَاتُ : أَظُنُّهَا الْعِشَاءَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both): We were with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and (while waiting for the prayer) I fell asleep, then woke up, then slept and woke up again. Meanwhile a man from among the Muslims stood up and called out: "The prayer! The prayer!" Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out to us with water dripping from his blessed head. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) led us in prayer and after that said: "Were it not that I would put my Ummah to hardship, and I do not like to burden my Ummah, I would surely have loved that you pray this prayer (delayed like this) at this time." The narrator of the hadith, al-Furat (may Allah have mercy on him), says: I think it was the Isha prayer.
