وَقَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو التَّيَّاحِ، عَنْ مَعْبَدٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ، قَالَ: خَطَبَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ ؓ فَقَالَ:
( أَلَا مَا بَالُ أَقْوَامٍ يُصَلُّونَ صَلَاةً قَدْ صَحِبْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، فَمَا رَأَيْتُهُ يُصَلِّيهَا، وَقَدْ سَمِعْنَاهُ يَنْهَى عَنْهَا، يَعْنِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ
