وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ
صَالِحِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ ، عَنْ
عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ
عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ :
" فُرِضَتِ الصَّلَاةُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي الْحَضَرِ وَالسَّفَرِ ، فَأُقِرَّتْ صَلَاةُ السَّفَرِ ، وَزِيدَ فِي صَلَاةِ الْحَضَرِ "
It is narrated from Umm al-Mu'minin Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: Prayers were originally prescribed as two rak'ahs, both in residence and on journey; after that, the prayer during journey remained as it was, and the prayer during residence was increased.
