وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنِ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ نَضْلَةَ، قَالَ:

خَرَجْنَا فِي سَفَرٍ وَنَحْنُ اثْنَا عَشَرَ رَاكِبًا، كُلُّهُمْ قَدْ صَحِبَ مُحَمَّدًا ﷺ غَيْرِي، قَالَ: فَحَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ، فَتَقَدَّمَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ فَصَلَّى أَرْبَعًا، فَقَالَ سَلْمَانُ ؓ: مَا لَنَا وَلِلْمَرْبُوعَةِ، تَكْفِينَا نِصْفُ الْمَرْبُوعَةِ، نَحْنُ إِلَى التَّخْفِيفِ أَفْقَرُ

✧ We set out on a journey, and we were twelve riders, all of whom had accompanied Muhammad ﷺ except me. The time for prayer came, and a man from the group went forward and prayed four [rak'ahs]. Salman ؓ said, 'What do we have to do with four? Half of four is enough for us. We are more in need of lightening.'
