Musnad of Abdullah bin Umar
Musnad Abi Ya'la 5778 — he was with Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ حَفْصٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي، أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ بِطَرِيقِ مَكَّةَ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ إِلَى رَحْلِهِ وَانْصَرَفْنَا مَعَهُ، فَالْتَفَتَ فَرَأَى نَاسًا يُصَلُّونَ فَقَالَ: مَا يَصْنَعُ هولَاءِ؟ قُلْتُ: يُسَبِّحُونَ، قَالَ: لَوْ كُنْتُ مُسَبِّحًا لَأَتْمَمْتُ صَلَاتِي يَا ابْنَ أَخِي " صَحِبْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَلَمْ يَزِدْ فِي السَّفَرِ عَلَى رَكْعَتَيْنِ، حَتَّى قَبَضَهُ اللَّهُ، ثُمَّ صَحِبْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَلَمْ يَزِدْ عَلَى رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ صَحِبْتُ عُمَرَ فَلَمْ يَزِدْ عَلَى رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ صَحِبْتُ عُثْمَانَ فَلَمْ يَزِدْ عَلَى رَكْعَتَيْنِ، حَتَّى قَبَضَهُ اللَّهُ، وَقَالَ اللَّهُ {لَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ} [الأحزاب: 21] "
It is narrated from Hafs bin Asim (may Allah have mercy on him) that he was with Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) on the road to Makkah. He led the people in prayer and then went back to his lodging, and we went back with him. He turned around and saw some people praying, and asked, "What are these people doing?" I said: They are offering voluntary prayers. He said, "O my nephew, if I were to offer voluntary prayers, I would have completed my (obligatory) prayer. I accompanied the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) did not pray more than two rak'ahs while travelling until Allah Almighty took him in death. Then I stayed in the company of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), and he too did not pray more than two rak'ahs. Then I accompanied Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and he too did not pray more than two rak'ahs. Then I accompanied Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), and he too did not pray more than two rak'ahs until Allah Almighty took him in death as well. And Allah Almighty says: 'Indeed, in the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) there is an excellent example for you.' [Al-Ahzab: 21]"
