حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عَيَّاشٍ الزُّرَقِيِّ، قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِعُسْفَانَ، وَعَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، فَصَلَّيْنَا الظُّهْرَ، فَقَالَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ: لَقَدْ أَصَبْنَا غِرَّةً، لَقَدْ أَصَبْنَا غَفْلَةً، لَوْ كُنَّا حَمَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ وَهُمْ فِي الصَّلَاةِ، فَنَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْقَصْرِ بَيْنَ الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ، فَلَمَّا حَضَرَتِ الْعَصْرُ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ، وَالْمُشْرِكُونَ أَمَامَهُ فَصَفَّ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَفٌّ، وَصَفَّ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ الصَّفِّ صَفٌّ آخَرُ، فَرَكَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَكَعُوا جَمِيعًا، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ وَسَجَدَ الصَّفُّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُ، وَقَامَ الْآخَرُونَ يَحْرُسُونَهُمْ، فَلَمَّا صَلَّى هَؤُلَاءِ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ وَقَامُوا سَجَدَ الْآخَرُونَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا خَلْفَهُمْ، ثُمَّ تَأَخَّرَ الصَّفُّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ إِلَى مَقَامِ الْآخَرِينَ، وَتَقَدَّمَ الصَّفُّ الْأَخِيرُ إِلَى مَقَامِ الصَّفِّ الْأَوَّلِ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَكَعُوا جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ سَجَدَ وَسَجَدَ الصَّفُّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ وَقَامَ الْآخَرُونَ يَحْرُسُونَهُمْ، فَلَمَّا جَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَالصَّفُّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ سَجَدَ الْآخَرُونَ، ثُمَّ جَلَسُوا جَمِيعًا، فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِمْ جَمِيعًا، فَصَلَّاهَا بِعُسْفَانَ، وَصَلَّاهَا يَوْمَ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد: رَوَى أَيُّوبُ، وَهِشَامٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، هَذَا الْمَعْنَى، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَكَذَلِكَ رَوَاهُ دَاوُدُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، وَكَذَلِكَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، وَكَذَلِكَقَتَادَةُ، عَنْ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ حِطَّانَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى فِعْلَهُ، وَكَذَلِكَ عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَكَذَلِكَ هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَهُوَ قَوْلُ الثَّوْرِيِّ.

The Prayer Of Fear (Salat-il-Khawf)
We accompanied the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم at Usfan, and Khalid bin al-Walid was the chief of unbelievers. We offered the noon prayer. Thereupon, the unbelievers said: We suffered from negligence; we became careless. We should have attacked them while they were praying. Thereupon the verse was revealed, relating to the shortening of the prayer (in time of danger) between the noon and afternoon (prayer). When the time of the afternoon prayer came, the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم stood facing the qiblah, and the unbelievers were standing in front of him. The people stood in a row behind the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and there was another row behind this row. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم bowed and all of them bowed. He then prostrated and also the row near him prostrated. The other people in the second row remained standing and stood guard over them. When they performed two prostrations and stood up, those who were behind them prostrated. The people in the front row near him then stepped backward taking the place of the people in the second row and the second row took the place of the first row. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم then bowed and all of them bowed together. Then he and the row near him prostrated themselves. The other people in the second row remained standing and stood guard over them. When the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and the row near him (i.e. the front row) were seated, the people in the second row behind them prostrated themselves. Then all of them were seated. (He (the Prophet) then uttered the salutation upon all of them. He prayed in his manner at Usfan as well as at the territory of Banu Sulaym. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been narrated by Ayyub and Hisham from Abu al-Zubair on the authority of Jabir to the same effect from the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم. Similarly, this has been transmitted by Dawud bin Husain from Ikrimah, on the authority of Ibn Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما . This has also been reported by Abdul-Malik, from Ata from Jabir in like manner. This has also been narrated by Qatadah from al-Hasan from Hittan on the authority of Abu Musa in a similar way. Similarly, this has been reported by Ikrimah bin Khalid from Mujahid from the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم. This has also been reported by Hisham bin Urwah from his father from the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم. This is the opinion of al-Thawri.
