Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَمِّي، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي دَاوُدُ بْنُ الْحُصَيْنِ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ مَا كَانَتْ صَلاَةُ الْخَوْفِ إِلاَّ سَجْدَتَيْنِ كَصَلاَةِ أَحْرَاسِكُمْ هَؤُلاَءِ الْيَوْمَ خَلْفَ أَئِمَّتِكُمْ هَؤُلاَءِ إِلاَّ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ عُقَبًا قَامَتْ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْهُمْ وَهُمْ جَمِيعًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَسَجَدَتْ مَعَهُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْهُمْ ثُمَّ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَقَامُوا مَعَهُ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ رَكَعَ وَرَكَعُوا مَعَهُ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ سَجَدَ فَسَجَدَ مَعَهُ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا قِيَامًا أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ فَلَمَّا جَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَالَّذِينَ سَجَدُوا مَعَهُ فِي آخِرِ صَلاَتِهِمْ سَجَدَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا قِيَامًا لأَنْفُسِهِمْ ثُمَّ جَلَسُوا فَجَمَعَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِالتَّسْلِيمِ ‏.‏

Translation

‘Ubaydullah ibn Sa‘d ibn Ibrahim narrated to us; he said: My uncle narrated to us; he said: My father narrated to us, from Ibn Ishaq, who said: Dawud ibn al-Husayn narrated to me, from ‘Ikrimah, from Ibn ‘Abbas, who said: The fear prayer was only two prostrations, like the prayer your guards perform today behind your imams, except that it was performed in turns. One group stood among them, all together with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), while another group prostrated with him. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood, and they all stood with him. Then he bowed, and they all bowed with him. Then he prostrated, and those who had been standing the first time prostrated with him. When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and those who had prostrated with him sat at the end of their prayer, those who had been standing prostrated on their own. Then they sat, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) concluded the prayer with them all by saying the taslim.
