Hadith 5757

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَطَرٌ ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : سَافَرْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَعَ عُمَرَ ، فَلَمْ أَرَهُمَا يَزِيدَانِ عَلَى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ، وَكُنَّا ضُلَّالًا فَهَدَانَا اللَّهُ بِهِ ، فَبِهِ نَقْتَدِي .
Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that I have traveled with the Prophet (peace be upon him) and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him); both of them did not pray more than two rak'ahs during travel. We were previously misguided, then Allah granted us guidance through the Prophet (peace be upon him). Now we will follow only him.
