Musnad al-Bazzar 9920

Translation

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in one of the two evening prayers. He prayed two rak'ahs, then said the salam, then stood by a piece of wood placed across the mosque. He placed his hand on it - and Ibn Awn described that he placed one of his hands over the other, and placed his hand on it as if he were angry. Then the hasteners among the people hurried out of the doors of the mosque, saying: The prayer has been shortened. Among the people were Abu Bakr and Umar, but they were too awed by him to speak to him. Among the people was a man with long hands called Dhu'l-Yadayn. He said: O Messenger of Allah, was the prayer shortened or did you forget? He said: I did not forget, nor was it shortened. He said: Is it as Dhu'l-Yadayn says? They said: Yes. So he went back and prayed what he had omitted, then said the salam, then said the takbir and prostrated like his prostration or longer, then raised his head and said the takbir, then prostrated.

• Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr

  فإن قال قائل إن حديث ذي اليدين مضطرب لأن ابن عمر وأبا هريرة يقولان سلم من اثنتين وعمران بن حصين يقول من ثلاث ركعات ومعاوية بن حديج يقول إن المتكلم طلحة بن عبيد الله قيل له ليس اختلافهم في موضع السلام من الصلاة عند أحد من أهل العلم بخلاف يقدح في حديثهم لأن المعنى المراد من الحديث هو البناء بعد الكلام ولا فرق عند أهل العلم بين المسلم من ثلاث أو من اثنتين لأن كل واحد منهما لم يكمل صلاته وأما ما ذكر في حديث معاوية بن حديج من ذكر طلحة بن عبيد الله فممكن أن يكون أيضا طلحة كلمه وغيره وليس في أن يكلمه طلحة وغيره ما يدفع أن ذا اليدين كلمه أيضا فأدى كل ما سمع على حسب ما سمع

  machine translationIf someone says: the hadith of Dhū l-Yadayn is inconsistent (muḍṭarib), because Ibn ʿUmar and Abū Hurayrah say that he gave the salām after two units, while ʿImrān b. Ḥuṣayn says after three units, and Muʿāwiyah b. Ḥudayj says that the one who spoke was Ṭalḥah b. ʿUbaydillāh, it is said to him: their disagreement about the point of the prayer at which the salām was given is not, according to any of the people of knowledge, a disagreement that undermines their hadith, because the meaning intended by the hadith is building on the prayer after speaking. There is no difference among the people of knowledge between one who gave the salām after three or after two, because neither of them had completed his prayer. As for what is mentioned in the hadith of Muʿāwiyah b. Ḥudayj about Ṭalḥah b. ʿUbaydillāh, it is possible that Ṭalḥah and others also spoke to him, and Ṭalḥah and others speaking to him does not rule out that Dhū l-Yadayn also spoke to him. So each one reported what he heard according to what he heard. Report a problem
