أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو زَكَرِيَّا يَحْيَى بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَا: ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أنبأ سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَمْرَو بْنَ دِينَارٍ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَقُولُ: كَانَ مُعَاذٌ يُصَلِّي مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْعِشَاءَ أَوِ الْعَتَمَةَ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ فَيُصَلِّيهَا لِقَوْمِهِ مِنْ بَنِي سَلِمَةَ، قَالَ فَأَخَّرَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْعِشَاءَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ، فَصَلَّى مُعَاذٌ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَأَمَّ قَوْمَهُ فَقَرَأَ بِسُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ، فَتَنَحَّى رَجُلٌ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ فَصَلَّى وَحْدَهُ، فَقَالُوا لَهُ: أَنَافَقْتَ؟ فَقَالَ: لَا، وَلَكِنِّي آتِي رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّكَ أَخَّرْتَ الْعِشَاءَ، وَإِنَّ مُعَاذًا صَلَّى مَعَكَ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَأَمَّنَا فَافْتَتَحَ بِسُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ، فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُ ذَلِكَ ⦗١٢١⦘ تَأَخَّرْتُ وَصَلَّيْتُ، وَإِنَّمَا نَحْنُ أَصْحَابُ نَوَاضِحَ نَعْمَلُ بِأَيْدِينَا، فَأَقْبَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى مُعَاذٍ فَقَالَ: " أَفَتَّانٌ أَنْتَ يَا مُعَاذُ؟ أَفَتَّانٌ أَنْتَ؟ اقْرَأْ بِسُورَةِ كَذَا، وَسُورَةِ كَذَا "..
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says that Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) used to pray the Isha prayer with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), then go to Banu Salimah and lead them in the Isha prayer. The narrator says: One day the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) delayed the Isha prayer. Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) prayed with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), then he went back and led his people in prayer, and in it he recited Surah al-Baqarah. A man separated himself and prayed on his own. They said: "Have you become a hypocrite?" He said: "No, I will go to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)," and he went and said: "O Messenger of Allah! You (peace and blessings be upon him) delayed the prayer, and Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) prayed with you, then came back and led us, and he began Surah al-Baqarah. When I saw that, I stepped back and prayed on my own. We are only people who draw water, working with our own hands." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned to Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "O Mu'adh! Are you one who causes trial (fitnah)? O Mu'adh! Are you one who causes trial? Recite such-and-such a surah."
