وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الصَّفَّارُ، ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَحَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ، وَعَمْرُو بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ، وَاللَّفْظُ لِسُلَيْمَانَ، ثنا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي عَوْنٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ لِسَعْدٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: " قَدْ شَكَوْكَ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ حَتَّى الصَّلَاةِ " قَالَ: أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَمُدُّ فِي الْأُولَيَيْنِ وَأَحْذِفُ فِي الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ، وَلَا آلُو مَا اقْتَدَيْتُ بِهِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: صَدَقْتَ، ذَلِكَ الظَّنُّ بِكَ " وَفِي حَدِيثِ شَبَابَةَ فَأَمُدُّ بِهِمْ فِي الْأُولَيَيْنِ وَأَحْذِفُ بِهِمْ فِي الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ وَقَالَ فِي آخِرِهِ، فَقَالَ: ذَلِكَ الظَّنُّ بِكَ يَا أَبَا إِسْحَاقَ رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ حَرْبٍ وَأَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ.
(a) It is narrated from Abu Awn that he said: I heard Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) say that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him): The people of Kufah have complained about you in everything, even about the prayer. He said: As for me, I lengthen the first two rak'ahs and shorten the last two, and I took this from the prayer of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); I do not fall short in it in any way. Umar al-Faruq (may Allah be pleased with him) said: You have spoken the truth; this is what was expected of you.
(b) In the hadith of Shababah it is: I lead them in the first two rak'ahs at length and the other two briefly. At its end it is that he (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Abu Ishaq, this is what I thought of you.
