قُرِئَ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ، وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ ، حَدَّثَكُمْ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْقَوَارِيرِيُّ ، ثنا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، ثنا حُسَيْنٌ الْمُعَلِّمُ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْمُزَنِيِّ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " صَلُّوا قَبْلَ الْمَغْرِبِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ " ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " صَلُّوا قَبْلَ الْمَغْرِبِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ " ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " صَلُّوا قَبْلَ الْمَغْرِبِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ لِمَنْ شَاءَ " . خَشْيَةَ أَنْ يَتَّخِذَهَا النَّاسُ سُنَّةً ، هَذَا أَصَحُّ مِنَ الَّذِي قَبْلَهُ ، وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ.
Abdullah bin Buraidah narrates from Sayyiduna Abdullah Muzani that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Perform two units of voluntary prayer before the obligatory Maghrib prayer." Then the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Perform two units before the obligatory Maghrib prayer, this command is for whoever wishes." (The narrator says) The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said this out of concern that people might adopt it as a Sunnah. (Imam Daraqutni, may Allah have mercy on him, says) This narration is more authentic than the previous narration.
