Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ عُتَيْبَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جُحَيْفَةَ، قَالَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِالْهَاجِرَةِ - قَالَ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى إِلَى الْبَطْحَاءِ - فَتَوَضَّأَ وَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَالْعَصْرَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ عَنَزَةٌ ‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna and Muhammad ibn Bashshar informed us; both said: Muhammad ibn Ja‘far narrated to us; he said: Shu‘bah narrated to us, from al-Hakam ibn ‘Utaybah, who said: I heard Abu Juhaifah say: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out at midday—al-Muthanna said: to al-Batha’—then performed wudu’ and prayed Zuhr two rak‘ahs and ‘Asr two rak‘ahs, with a short spear in front of him.

Translation notes
  • The Arabic says al-Muthanna specifically added the destination “to al-Batha’”; the English witness also preserves this as a narrator’s clarification.

  • أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى،

    The English witness omits the transmitters before al-Hakam and does not identify both parallel transmitters.

    Confirm the chain and the attribution of the destination variant.
