(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عِيسَى , قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زَيْدٍ , عَنْ
كَثِيرِ بْنِ شِنْظِيرٍ , عَنْ
عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ , عَنْ
جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ , قَالَ : بَعَثَنِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَاجَةٍ , فَلَمَّا رَجَعْتُ , سَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ , فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ , قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , سَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْكَ , فَلَمْ تَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ ! قَالَ : " إِنِّي كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي " ، وَهُوَ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ مُتَوَجِّهًا لِغَيْرِ الْقِبْلَةِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me for some task of his. I went, and when I returned after completing the task, I greeted the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with salam, but he did not reply. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) finished the prayer, I said: O Messenger of Allah! I greeted you with salam, but you did not reply. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I was performing prayer at that time. At that time, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was on his mount and was not facing the qiblah.
