Musnad of Anas bin Malik
Musnad Abi Ya'la 3669 — I prayed Zuhr with Umar bin Abd al-Aziz
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ ، مَوْلَى بَنِي هَاشِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَطَّافُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ أَسْلَمَ قَالَ : صَلَّيْتُ الظُّهْرَ مَعَ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفْنَا إِلَى أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ قَالَ : قَدْ صَلَّيْتُمْ ؟ قُلْنَا : نَعَمْ ، فَقَالَ : يَا جَارِيَةُ هَلُمِّي لِي وَضُوءًا ، مَا صَلَّيْتُ وَرَاءَ إِمَامٍ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَشْبَهَ صَلَاةً بِرَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - مِنْ إِمَامِكُمْ هَذَا ، قَالَ زَيْدٌ : وَكَانَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ يُتِمُّ الرُّكُوعَ وَالسُّجُودَ ، وَيُخَفِّفُ الْقِيَامَ وَالْقُعُودَ .
Zayd bin Aslam (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates: I prayed Zuhr with Umar bin Abd al-Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him), then we went to Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him). When we reached him, he asked: "Have you prayed?" We said: "Yes." He said: "O slave-girl, bring me water for ablution. After the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I have not prayed behind any imam whose prayer resembled his (peace and blessings be upon him) prayer more than this imam of yours (that is, Umar bin Abd al-Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him))." Zayd bin Aslam (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Umar bin Abd al-Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him) used to perform the bowing and prostration completely (with calmness), but would keep the standing and sitting short."
