حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ: نَا كَهْمَسٌ، عَنْ بُرْدٍ أَبِي الْعَلَاءِ، عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ نُسَيٍّ، عَنْ غُضَيْفِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِعَائِشَةَ:
أَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُوتِرُ مِنْ أَوَّلِ اللَّيْلِ أَوْ مِنْ آخِرِهِ ؟ قَالَتْ: رُبَّمَا أَوْتَرَ مِنْ أَوَّلِهِ، وَرُبَّمَا أَوْتَرَ مِنْ آخِرِهِ، قُلْتُ: اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ فِي الْأَمْرِ سَعَةً "، قُلْتُ: أَكَانَ إِذَا أَصَابَتْهُ الْجَنَابَةُ يَغْتَسِلُ مِنْ أَوَّلِ اللَّيْلِ، أَوْ مِنْ آخِرِهِ ؟ قَالَتْ: رُبَّمَا اغْتَسَلَ مِنْ أَوَّلِهِ، وَرُبَّمَا اغْتَسَلَ مِنْ آخِرِهِ. قُلْتُ: اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ فِي الْأَمْرِ سَعَةً، قُلْتُ: أَفَكَانَ يَجْهَرُ بِقِرَاءَتِهِ فِي صَلَاتِهِ أَوْ يُخَافِتُ ؟ قَالَتْ: رُبَّمَا جَهَرَ وَرُبَّمَا خَافَتَ، قُلْتُ: اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ فِي الْأَمْرِ سَعَةً.
