Bayhaqi 5171 — The follower who goes against the Sunnah

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الْحُرْفِيُّ، أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الشَّافِعِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْجَهْمِ السَّمُرِيُّ، ثنا يَعْلَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الطَّنَافِسِيُّ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَعَلْقَمَةُ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ بِالْهَاجِرَةِ فَلَمَّا أَنْ مَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ أَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ، فَقُمْتُ أَنَا وَصَاحِبِي خَلْفَهُ، فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي وَيَدِ صَاحِبِي فَجَعَلَنَا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ، فَقَامَ بَيْنَنَا، وَقَالَ: " هَكَذَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصْنَعُ إِذَا كَانُوا ثَلَاثَةً "، فَصَلَّى بِنَا فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ: " إِنَّهَا سَتَكُونُ أَئِمَّةٌ يُؤَخِّرُونَ الصَّلَاةَ عَنْ مَوَاقِيتِهَا، فَلَا تَنْتَظِرُوهُمْ بِهَا، وَاجْعَلُوا الصَّلَاةَ مَعَهُمْ سُبْحَةً ". وَهَذَا يُحْتَمَلُ إِنْ كَانَ ثَمَّ نَسْخٌ، وَاسْتَدْلَلْنَا عَنْ نَسْخِهِ بِمَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ خَبَرِ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، وَأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، وَمَا رُوِّينَا عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، وَعُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا وَالْعَامَّةِ، وَقَدْ رُوِّينَا عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ مَا دَلَّ عَلَى أَنَّ الَّذِي شَاهَدَهُ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ فِي ذَلِكَ إِنَّمَا شَاهَدَهُ فِي غَيْرِ صَلَاةِ جَمَاعَةٍ، وَأَنَّ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ كَانَ يُصَلِّي لِنَفْسِهِ.
(a) Abd al-Rahman bin al-Aswad (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from his father: Alqamah (may Allah have mercy on him) and I came to Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) at midday. When the sun had passed its zenith, he established the prayer, and my companion and I stood behind him. He took my hand and my companion's hand and made us stand on his right and left, and he himself stood between us, and said: "This is what the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do when there were three people." Then he led us in prayer. When he had finished, he said: "Soon there will be imams who delay the prayers; do not wait for them, and pray with them as well; it will be a voluntary prayer for you."
(b) Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) says that Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) saw him (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) praying voluntary prayer separately; he did not lead them in congregation.
