وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعَالِيَةِ الرِّيَاحِيِّ، قَالَ:

إِنَّ أَبَا مُوسَى ؓ كَانَ بِالدَّارِ مِنْ أَصْبَهَانَ وَمَا كَانَ بِهَا يَوْمَئِذٍ كَبِيرُ خَوْفٍ، وَلَكِنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يُعَلِّمَهُمْ دِينَهُمْ وَسُنَّةَ نَبِيِّهِمْ ﷺ فَجَعَلَهُمْ صَفَّيْنِ، طَائِفَةً مَعَهَا السِّلَاحُ مُقْبِلَةً عَلَى عَدُوِّهَا، وَطَائِفَةً مِنْ قُدَّامِهِ، فَصَلَّى بِالَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُ رَكْعَةً، ثُمَّ نَكَصُوا عَلَى أَدْبَارِهِمْ حَتَّى قَامُوا مَقَامَ الْآخَرِينَ يَتَخَلَّلُونَهُمْ، حَتَّى قَامُوا وَرَاءَهُ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ رَكْعَةً أُخْرَى، ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ، فَقَامَ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُ وَالْآخَرُونَ فَصَلَّوْا رَكْعَةً رَكْعَةً، ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ، فَتَمَّتْ لِلْإِمَامِ رَكْعَتَانِ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ وَلِلنَّاسِ رَكْعَةٌ رَكْعَةٌ

✧ Abu Musa ؓ was at al-Dar in Isfahan, and there was no great fear there that day, but he wanted to teach them their religion and the Sunnah of their Prophet ﷺ. He arranged them in two rows: one group with weapons facing their enemy, and another group in front of him. He prayed one rak'ah with those next to him, then they moved backwards walking on their heels until they stood in the place of the others, passing through them, until they stood behind him. He then prayed another rak'ah with them and said the salam. Then those who had been next to him and the others stood up and prayed one rak'ah each, then some of them said salam to the others. Thus the imam completed two rak'ahs in congregation, and the people completed one rak'ah each.
