أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الأَشْعَثِ بْنِ أَبِي الشَّعْثَاءِ، عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ بْنِ هِلاَلٍ، عَنْ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ زَهْدَمٍ، قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِي بِطَبَرِسْتَانَ وَمَعَنَا حُذَيْفَةُ بْنُ الْيَمَانِ فَقَالَ أَيُّكُمْ صَلَّى مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم صَلاَةَ الْخَوْفِ فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ أَنَا فَوَصَفَ فَقَالَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم صَلاَةَ الْخَوْفِ بِطَائِفَةٍ رَكْعَةً صَفٍّ خَلْفَهُ وَطَائِفَةٍ أُخْرَى بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْعَدُوِّ فَصَلَّى بِالطَّائِفَةِ الَّتِي تَلِيهِ رَكْعَةً ثُمَّ نَكَصَ هَؤُلاَءِ إِلَى مَصَافِّ أُولَئِكَ وَجَاءَ أُولَئِكَ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ رَكْعَةً .
Ishaq ibn Ibrahim narrated to us; he said: Waki‘ narrated to us; he said: Sufyan narrated to us, from al-Ash‘ath ibn Abi al-Sha‘tha’, from al-Aswad ibn Hilal, from Tha‘labah ibn Zahdam, who said: We were with Sa‘id ibn al-‘As in Tabaristan, and Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman was with us. He asked, “Which of you prayed the fear prayer with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?” Hudhayfah said, “I did,” and described it: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed the fear prayer with one group, who stood in a row behind him, while another group was between him and the enemy. He led the group closest to him in one rak‘ah. Then that group moved back to the positions of the others, and the others came forward, and he led them in one rak‘ah.
