Sunan Abi Dawud 1246

Translation

Tha'labah ibn Zahdam said: We accompanied Sa'd ibn al-'As at Tabaristan. He stood and said: Which of you prayed along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in time of danger? Hudhayfah said: I then he led one section in one rak'ah and the other section in one rak'ah. They did not pray the second rak'ah by themselves. Abu Dawud: This tradition has been transmitted by 'Ubaid Allah b. 'Abd Allah and Mujahid on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas from the Prophet ﷺ in like manner. This has also been narrated by 'Abd Allah b. Shaqiq from Abu Hurairah from the Prophet ﷺ. Yazid al-Faqir and Abu Musa also narrated this tradition from Jabir from the Prophet ﷺ. Some of the narrators said in the version narrated by Yazid al-Faqir that they completed their second rak'ah. This has also been narrated by Simak al-Hanafi on the authority of Ibn 'Umar from the Prophet ﷺ something similar. Zaid b. Thabit also narrated from the Prophet ﷺ in like manner. This version adds: The people prayed on rak'ah and the Prophet ﷺ prayed two rak'ahs.
