حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ أَنْبَأَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ
كَانَ يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ وَالشَّمْسُ مُرْتَفِعَةٌ حَيَّةٌ فَيَذْهَبُ الذَّاهِبُ إِلَى الْعَوَالِي وَالشَّمْسُ مُرْتَفِعَةٌ

- Dāraquṭnī
هذا مما ينتقد به على مالك لأنه رفعه وقال فيه إلى قباء وخالفه عدد كثير منهم شعيب بن أبي حمزة وصالح بن كيسان وعمرو بن الحارث ويونس بن يزيد ومعمر والليث بن سعد وابن أبي ذئب
machine translationThis is among the things for which Mālik is criticized, because he traced it back to the Prophet (marfūʿ) and said in it "to Qubāʾ"; a large number of narrators contradicted him, among them Shuʿayb b. Abī Ḥamzah, Ṣāliḥ b. Kaysān, ʿAmr b. al-Ḥārith, Yūnus b. Yazīd, Maʿmar, al-Layth b. Saʿd and Ibn Abī Dhiʾb.

ذكر كلام الدارقطني ثم قال ومثل هذا الوهم اليسير لا يلزم منه القدح في صحة الحديث لا سيما وقد أخرجا الرواية المحفوظة
machine translationHe mentioned the words of al-Dāraquṭnī and then said: Such a slight error (wahm) does not necessarily entail impugning the soundness of the hadith, especially since the two of them (al-Bukhārī and Muslim) have also transmitted the preserved (maḥfūẓ) narration.
