Hadith 21098

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا رَجُلٌ سَمَّاهُ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَشْعَرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ جَارِيَةَ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ ، قَالَ : جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، عَمِلْتُ اللَّيْلَةَ عَمَلًا ، قَالَ : " مَا هُوَ ؟ " ، قَالَ : نِسْوَةٌ مَعِي فِي الدَّارِ قُلْنَ لِي : إِنَّكَ تَقْرَأُ وَلَا نَقْرَأُ ، فَصَلِّ بِنَا ، فَصَلَّيْتُ ثَمَانِيًا وَالْوَتْرَ ، قَالَ : فَسَكَتَ رَسُولُ الله صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ فَرَأَيْنَا أَنَّ سُكُوتَهُ رِضًا بِمَا كَانَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) with reference to Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), tonight I have done something." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, "What is that?" He said, "The women who were with me at home said, 'You know how to recite the Qur'an, we do not, so you lead us in prayer.' So I led them in eight rak'ahs and witr." Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent, and we understood that the silence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was an indication of his approval of the mentioned incident.
