Bayhaqi 6028 — The enemy is in the direction of the qiblah in open

وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، ثنا زُهَيْرٌ، ثنا أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: " غَزَوْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَوْمًا مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ، فَقَاتَلُوا قِتَالًا شَدِيدًا، فَلَمَّا صَلَّيْنَا الظُّهْرَ قَالَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ: لَوْ مِلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ مَيْلَةً لَاقْتَطَعْنَاهُمْ، فَأَخْبَرَ جَبْرَئِيلُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِذَلِكَ، فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: وَقَالُوا: إِنَّهُ سَيَأْتِيهِمْ صَلَاةٌ هِيَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنَ الْأَوْلَادِ، يَعْنِي: الْعَصْرَ فَلَمَّا حَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ صَفَّنَا صَفَّينِ، وَالْمُشْرِكُونَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الْقِبْلَةِ، قَالَ: فَكَبَّرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَكَبَّرْنَا وَرَكَعَ وَرَكَعْنَا، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ وَسَجَدَ مَعَهُ الصَّفُّ الْأَوَّلِ، فَلَمَّا قَامُوا سَجَدَ الصَّفُّ الثَّانِي، ثُمَّ تَأَخَّرَ الصَّفُّ الْأَوَّلُ، وَتَقَدَّمَ الصَّفُّ الثَّانِي، فَقَامُوا مَقَامَ الْأَوَّلِ، فَكَبَّرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَكَبَّرْنَا، وَرَكَعَ وَرَكَعْنَا، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ وَسَجَدَ مَعَهُ الصَّفُّ الْأَوَّلُ، وَقَامَ الثَّانِي، فَلَمَّا سَجَدَ الصَّفُّ الثَّانِي، ثُمَّ جَلَسُوا جَمِيعًا سَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ". قَالَ أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ: ثُمَّ خَصَّ جَابِرٌ أَنْ قَالَ: " كَمَا يُصَلِّي أُمَرَاؤُكُمْ هَؤُلَاءِ ". ⦗٣٦٧⦘ رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يُونُسَ، وَاسْتَشْهَدَ الْبُخَارِيُّ بِرِوَايَةِ هِشَامٍ الدَّسْتُوَائِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ فِي ذَلِكَ.
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We fought against (a people of) Juhaynah, and the fighting was extremely fierce. When we had prayed Zuhr, the polytheists said: If we attack them all at once, we will cut them down. Jibril (peace be upon him) informed the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) of this. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned this to us: "They are saying that a prayer will soon come which is more beloved to them than their children." When the time of prayer came, we formed two rows, and the polytheists were between us and the qiblah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said the takbir and we also said the takbir; he (peace and blessings be upon him) bowed and we also bowed. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) prostrated, and the first row prostrated with him (peace and blessings be upon him). When they stood up, the second row prostrated; then the first row moved back and the second row moved forward. When they stood in the place of the first, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said the takbir and we also said the takbir, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) bowed and we also bowed. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) prostrated, and the first row prostrated with him (peace and blessings be upon him) while the second row remained standing; then the second row prostrated. Then they all remained seated, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the salam with all of them. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Just as your commanders pray.
