Hadith 2042
حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ ، وَأَبُو هَاشِمٍ زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ ، قَالا : حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ , حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ ، قَالَ : كَانَ أَبُو قِلابَةَ حَدَّثَنِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ ، ثُمّ قَالَ لِي : هَلْ لَكَ فِي الَّذِي حَدَّثَنِيهِ ؟ فَدَلَّنِي عَلَيْهِ , فَلَقِيتُهُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي قَرِيبٌ لِي يُقَالُ لَهُ : أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي إِبِلٍ كَانَتْ لِي أُخِذَتْ , فَوَافَقْتُهُ وَهُوَ يَأْكُلُ , فَدَعَانِي إِلَى طَعَامِهِ , فَقُلْتُ : إِنِّي صَائِمٌ . فَقَالَ : " ادْنُ " , أَوْ قَالَ : " هَلُمَّ أُخْبِرْكَ عَنْ ذَاكِ , إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَضَعَ عَنِ الْمُسَافِرِ الصَّوْمَ وَشَطْرَ الصَّلاةِ , وَعَنِ الْحُبْلَى وَالْمُرْضِعِ " . فَكَانَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ يَقُولُ : أَلا أَكَلْتُ مِنْ طَعَامِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ دَعَانِي إِلَيْهِ . قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : هَذَا الْخَبَرُ مِنَ الْجِنْسِ الَّذِي أَعْلَمْتُ فِي كِتَابِ الإِيمَانِ أَنَّ اسْمَ النِّصْفِ قَدْ يَقَعُ عَلَى جُزْءٍ مِنْ أَجْزَاءِ الشَّيْءِ ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ نِصْفًا عَلَى الْكَمَالِ وَالتَّمَامِ , أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ أَعْلَمَ فِي هَذَا الْخَبَرِ أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَضَعَ عَنِ الْمُسَافِرِ شَطْرَ الصَّلاةِ , وَالشَّطْرُ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ النِّصْفُ ، لا الْقِبَلُ , وَلا التِّلْقَاءُ وَالْجِهَةُ , أَعْنِي قَوْلَهُ تَعَالَى : فَوَلِّ وَجْهَكَ شَطْرَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ سورة البقرة آية 144 وَلَمْ يَضَعِ اللَّهُ عَنِ الْمُسَافِرِ نِصْفَ فَرِيضَةِ الصَّلاةِ عَلَى الْكَمَالِ وَالتَّمَامِ ؛ لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَضَعْ مِنْ صَلاةِ الْفَجْرِ ، وَلا مِنْ صَلاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ عَنِ الْمُسَافِرِ شَيْئًا
Ayub says that Abu Qilabah narrated this hadith to me, then he said to me, “Do you wish to know the teacher from whom I heard this hadith?” Then he informed me about him, so I met him. He said, “My close relative, Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), narrated to me that I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) regarding my camels that had been seized. I came to you (peace be upon him) at a time when you were eating, so you (peace be upon him) invited me to eat. I said, ‘I am fasting.’ The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: ‘Come near,’ or he said, ‘Come (and eat), I will inform you about this matter. Indeed, Allah Almighty has excused the traveler from fasting and half of the prayer. And the pregnant and breastfeeding woman is also excused (from fasting).’ After this, Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say, ‘Alas, I wish I had accepted the invitation of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and eaten from his food.’ Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says that this narration belongs to the same category which I have mentioned in Kitab al-Iman, that the term ‘half’ can be applied to any part of something, even if that part is not exactly half. In this narration, the Prophet (peace be upon him) stated that Allah Almighty has excused the traveler from ‘shatr’ (half) of the prayer. Here, ‘shatr’ means half. In this place, ‘shatr’ does not mean side, direction, or orientation. My intention is Allah Almighty’s statement « فَوَلِّ وَجْهَكَ شَطْرَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ » [ سورة البقرة : 144 ] “So turn your face towards the Sacred Mosque.” (Here, ‘shatr’ means side and direction.) And Allah Almighty has not excused the traveler from exactly half of the prayer, because Allah Almighty has not excused the traveler from any part of the Fajr and Maghrib prayers.
Hadith 2043
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْعِجْلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلابَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ وَهُوَ يَتَغَدَّى , فَقَالَ : " ادْنُهْ " . قَالَ : إِنِّي صَائِمٌ . فَقَالَ : " ادْنُهْ أُحَدِّثْكَ عَنِ الصِّيَامِ , إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ وَضَعَ عَنِ الْمُسَافِرِ الصِّيَامَ وَشَطْرَ الصَّلاةِ , وَعَنِ الْحُبْلَى أَوِ الْمُرْضِعِ " . قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ الأَنْصَارِيُّ هُوَ مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ
Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) while he was eating food. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Come near to the food." He replied, "I am fasting." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Come near to the food (and eat), I will tell you about fasting. Indeed, Allah Almighty has excused the traveler from fasting and half of the prayer, and has also excused fasting for the pregnant and breastfeeding woman." Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says that the Anas bin Malik Ansari referred to here is a member of the family of Abdullah bin Malik (not the special servant of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him).
Hadith 2044
حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، عَنْ أَبِي هِلالٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَوَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ , حَدَّثَنِي الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هِلالٍ . ح وَحَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ أَيْضًا , حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هِلالٍ ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ . فَقَالَ عَفَّانُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ وَلَيْسَ بِالأَنْصَارِيِّ , وَقَالَ عَفَّانُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ : وَالْمُرْضِعِ
The respected Imam narrates the above-mentioned tradition through the chain of narration of Affan, in which he states that this narration is from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), but he is not an Ansari. And Affan, in his hadith, has mentioned the nursing woman (and has not mentioned the pregnant woman).
