( وَأَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو بَكْرٍ: أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي، ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ: مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثَنَا بَحْرُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، قَالَ: قُرِئَ عَلَى ابْنِ وَهْبٍ: أَخْبَرَكَ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ نَبْهَانَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ - ؓ قَالَ:

صَلَّيْنَا لَيْلَةً فِي غَيْمٍ، وَخَفِيَتْ عَلَيْنَا الْقِبْلَةُ، وَعَلَّمْنَا عَلَمًا، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفْنَا نَظَرْنَا، فَإِذَا نَحْنُ قَدْ صَلَّيْنَا إِلَى غَيْرِ الْقِبْلَةِ، فَذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: قَدْ أَحْسَنْتُمْ، وَلَمْ يَأْمُرْنَا أَنْ نُعِيدَ

We prayed one night under cloud cover, and the qiblah was hidden from us, so we set up a marker. When we finished, we looked, and behold, we had prayed in a direction other than the qiblah. We mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he said: "You have done well," and he did not command us to repeat the prayer.
