حَدَّثَنِي حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ
ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ
رَجُلٍ مِنْ آلِ خَالِدِ بْنِ أَسِيدٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ إِنَّا نَجِدُ صَلَاةَ الْخَوْفِ وَصَلَاةَ الْحَضَرِ فِي الْقُرْآنِ وَلَا نَجِدُ صَلَاةَ السَّفَرِ ، فَقَالَ
ابْنُ عُمَرَ : " يَا ابْنَ أَخِي
إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بَعَثَ إِلَيْنَا مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَلَا نَعْلَمُ شَيْئًا فَإِنَّمَا نَفْعَلُ كَمَا رَأَيْنَاهُ يَفْعَلُ "
Hazrat Umayyah bin Abdullah asked Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that we find the prayer of fear and the prayer at home in the Qur'an, but we do not find the prayer of travel in the Qur'an. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) replied, "O my nephew! Allah, the Glorious and Exalted, sent to us Hazrat Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) at a time when we knew nothing, so we do as we saw Hazrat Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), doing."
