حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عِمْرَانَ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَخُو أَبِي حُرَّةَ، وَقُرَّةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ وَهَارُونُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْأَهْوَازِيُّ كُلُّهُمْ حَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ:
صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِحْدَى صَلَاتَيِ الْعَشِيِّ: الظُّهْرَ أَوِ الْعَصْرَ، فَسَلَّمَ فِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ، فَخَرَجَ سَرَعَانُ النَّاسِ، فَقَالُوا: أَقَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ ؟، وَفِي الْقَوْمِ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ، فَهَابَا أَنْ يُكَلِّمَاهُ، وَقَامَ سَرَعَانُ النَّاسِ، وَقَامَ [ فَقَامَ ] إِلَى خَشَبَةٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ كَانَ يَضَعُ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهَا، فَقَامَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ يُقَالُ لَهُ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُسَمِّيهُ ذَا الْيَدَيْنِ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَقَصُرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ أَمْ نَسِيتَ ؟ قَالَ: لَمْ أَنْسَ، وَلَمْ تَقْصُرِ الصَّلَاةُ، فَسَأَلَ الْقَوْمَ، فَقَالُوا: صَدَقَ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ، فَرَجَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ مِثْلَ رُكُوعِهِ أَوْ أَطْوَلَ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ led us in one of the two afternoon prayers, ẓuhr or ʿaṣr, and he gave the salutation after two rakʿahs. The hasty ones among the people left, saying: Has the prayer been shortened? In the group were Abū Bakr and ʿUmar, and they were too awed to speak to him. The hasty ones among the people left, and he [the Prophet] stood up [then he stood] by a piece of wood in the mosque on which he used to place his hand. A man from the group called Dhū al-Yadayn stood up to him—and the Messenger of God ﷺ used to call him Dhū al-Yadayn—and said: O Messenger of God, has the prayer been shortened or did you forget? He said: I did not forget, and the prayer has not been shortened. He asked the people, and they said: Dhū al-Yadayn has spoken the truth. So the Messenger of God ﷺ returned and prayed two rakʿahs like the first two or longer, then he prostrated twice.

- Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr
فإن قال قائل إن حديث ذي اليدين مضطرب لأن ابن عمر وأبا هريرة يقولان سلم من اثنتين وعمران بن حصين يقول من ثلاث ركعات ومعاوية بن حديج يقول إن المتكلم طلحة بن عبيد الله قيل له ليس اختلافهم في موضع السلام من الصلاة عند أحد من أهل العلم بخلاف يقدح في حديثهم لأن المعنى المراد من الحديث هو البناء بعد الكلام ولا فرق عند أهل العلم بين المسلم من ثلاث أو من اثنتين لأن كل واحد منهما لم يكمل صلاته وأما ما ذكر في حديث معاوية بن حديج من ذكر طلحة بن عبيد الله فممكن أن يكون أيضا طلحة كلمه وغيره وليس في أن يكلمه طلحة وغيره ما يدفع أن ذا اليدين كلمه أيضا فأدى كل ما سمع على حسب ما سمع
machine translationIf someone says: the hadith of Dhū l-Yadayn is inconsistent (muḍṭarib), because Ibn ʿUmar and Abū Hurayrah say that he gave the salām after two units, while ʿImrān b. Ḥuṣayn says after three units, and Muʿāwiyah b. Ḥudayj says that the one who spoke was Ṭalḥah b. ʿUbaydillāh, it is said to him: their disagreement about the point of the prayer at which the salām was given is not, according to any of the people of knowledge, a disagreement that undermines their hadith, because the meaning intended by the hadith is building on the prayer after speaking. There is no difference among the people of knowledge between one who gave the salām after three or after two, because neither of them had completed his prayer. As for what is mentioned in the hadith of Muʿāwiyah b. Ḥudayj about Ṭalḥah b. ʿUbaydillāh, it is possible that Ṭalḥah and others also spoke to him, and Ṭalḥah and others speaking to him does not rule out that Dhū l-Yadayn also spoke to him. So each one reported what he heard according to what he heard.
