Hadith 159

أَخْبَرَنَا الشَّافِعِيُّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَبِيدٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا سَلَمَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، يَقُولُ: قَدِمَ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ الْمَدِينَةَ، فَبَيْنَا هُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ إِذْ قَالَ: يَا كَثِيرُ بْنَ الصَّلْتِ، اذْهَبْ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ فَسَلْهَا عَنْ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ، قَالَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ: فَذَهَبْتُ مَعَهُ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ، وَبَعَثَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ مَعَنَا، فَأَتَى عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا فَسَأَلَهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: اذْهَبْ فَسَلْ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ، فَذَهَبْتُ مَعَهُ إِلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ فَسَأَلَهَا قَالَتْ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ: دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ، فَصَلَّى عِنْدِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ لَمْ أَكُنْ أَرَاهُ يُصَلِّيهِمَا، فَقَالَ: "إِنِّي كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ بَعْدَ الظُّهْرِ، وَإِنَّهُ قَدِمَ عَلَيَّ وَفْدُ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ أَوْ صَدَقَةٌ فَشَغَلُونِي عَنْهُمَا فَهُمَا هَاتَانِ الرَّكْعَتَانِ" .
Abu Salamah bin Abdur Rahman narrates that Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) came to Madinah. He was seated on the pulpit when he said to Kathir bin Silat: "Go to Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and ask her about the prayer after Asr of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and come back!" Abu Salamah says: I also went with him to Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), while Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) also sent Abdullah bin Harith bin Nawfal with us. He went to Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and asked her about it. So Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said to Kathir bin Silat: "Go to Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) and ask her." (Abu Salamah) says: I also went with him to Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) and asked her about it. Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "One day, after Asr, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to me and prayed two rak‘ahs which I had never seen him pray before. Then he said: 'I pray two rak‘ahs after Dhuhr, but today a delegation from Banu Tamim came to me, or some charity wealth came (the narrator is unsure), so I was unable to pray those rak‘ahs, so these are those (two rak‘ahs after Dhuhr).'"
