Sahih al-Bukhari 521, 522
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، أَخَّرَ الصَّلاَةَ يَوْمًا، فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ الْمُغِيرَةَ بْنَ شُعْبَةَ أَخَّرَ الصَّلاَةَ يَوْمًا وَهْوَ بِالْعِرَاقِ، فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ الأَنْصَارِيُّ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا يَا مُغِيرَةُ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ نَزَلَ فَصَلَّى، فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ثُمَّ قَالَ " بِهَذَا أُمِرْتُ ". فَقَالَ عُمَرُ لِعُرْوَةَ اعْلَمْ مَا تُحَدِّثُ أَوَإِنَّ جِبْرِيلَ هُوَ أَقَامَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَقْتَ الصَّلاَةِ. قَالَ عُرْوَةُ كَذَلِكَ كَانَ بَشِيرُ بْنُ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ. قَالَ عُرْوَةُ وَلَقَدْ حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ، وَالشَّمْسُ فِي حُجْرَتِهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَظْهَرَ.
‘Abdullah bin Maslama said: I read to Malik, from Ibn Shihab, that ‘Umar bin ‘Abd al-‘Aziz once delayed the prayer. ‘Urwa bin al-Zubair came to him and told him that al-Mughira bin Shu‘ba had once delayed the prayer when he was in Iraq. Abu Mas‘ud al-Ansari came to him and said, ‘What is this, Mughira? Do you not know that Gabriel descended and prayed, then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed; then he prayed, and the Messenger of Allah prayed; this happened five times. Then he said, “I was commanded to follow this.”’ ‘Umar said to ‘Urwa, ‘Be careful what you report. Was it Gabriel who set the prayer times for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?’ ‘Urwa said, ‘Bashir bin Abi Mas‘ud used to narrate this from his father.’ ‘Urwa added: ‘Aisha told me that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray the afternoon prayer while the sun was still in her chamber, before it had risen above it.’
