Sunan an-Nasa'i 1591
أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ، عَنْ إِيَاسِ بْنِ أَبِي رَمْلَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُعَاوِيَةَ، سَأَلَ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ أَشَهِدْتَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عِيدَيْنِ قَالَ نَعَمْ صَلَّى الْعِيدَ مِنْ أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ ثُمَّ رَخَّصَ فِي الْجُمُعَةِ .
‘Amr ibn ‘Ali narrated to us; he said: ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Mahdi narrated to us; he said: Isra’il narrated to us, from ‘Uthman ibn al-Mughirah, from Iyas ibn Abi Ramlah, who said: I heard Mu‘awiyah ask Zayd ibn Arqam, “Did you attend two Eid prayers with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?” He said: “Yes. He prayed the Eid prayer early in the day, then granted a concession concerning the Friday prayer.”
Translation notes
The source’s phrase ‘two Eids’ is kept literal and does not specify whether it means two separate Eid occasions or another pairing.
سَأَلَ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ أَشَهِدْتَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عِيدَيْنِ قَالَ نَعَمْ صَلَّى الْعِيدَ مِنْ أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ ثُمَّ رَخَّصَ فِي الْجُمُعَةِ .
The wording ‘two Eids’ does not specify which occasions are meant.
Does ‘two Eids’ here refer to two separate Eid occasions, or to Eid and Friday coinciding?
