عَن الْحسن: أَن عمر بن الْخطاب جَمَعَ النَّاسَ عَلَى أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ فَكَانَ يُصَلِّي بِهِمْ عِشْرِينَ لَيْلَةً وَلَا يَقْنُتُ بِهِمْ إِلَّا فِي النِّصْفِ الْبَاقِي فَإِذَا كَانَتِ الْعَشْرُ الْأَوَاخِرُ تَخَلَّفَ فَصَلَّى فِي بَيْتِهِ فَكَانُوا يَقُولُونَ: أبق أبي. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد

Al-Hasan reported that Umar ibn al-Khattab gathered the people to pray behind Ubayy ibn Ka’b. He led them for twenty nights and performed qunut with them only in the latter half. When the last ten nights came, he stayed away and prayed at home. They would say: Ubayy has fled. Abu Dawud transmitted it.
