وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، ثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ عُتَيْبَةَ قَالَ:
إِنَّ رَجُلًا أَخَّرَ الصَّلَاةَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ شَيْخٌ: وَاللهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي، فَمَا رَأَيْتُهُ يَصْنَعُ كَمَا تَصْنَعُ أَنْتَ ! قَالَ: فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُهُ ذَكَرَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ - قُلْتُ لَهُ: كَيْفَ رَأَيْتَهُ صَنَعَ ؟، قَالَ: رَأَيْتُهُ ﷺ - خَرَجَ حِينَ زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَإِذَا الرَّجُلُ أَبُو جُحَيْفَةَ ؓ

✧ A man delayed the prayer on Friday, and an old man said to him: 'By God, I saw the Messenger of God ﷺ praying, and I did not see him do as you do!' He said: 'When I saw him, he mentioned the Messenger of God ﷺ – I said to him: How did you see him act? He said: I saw him ﷺ come out when the sun had passed its zenith – and the man was Abu Juhayfah ؓ.'
