حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبَّادِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَبَّادٍ، قَالَ: لَمَّا قَدِمَ عَلَيْنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ، حَاجًّا قَدِمْنَا مَعَهُ مَكَّةَ، قَالَ: فَصَلَّى بِنَا الظُّهْرَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ إِلَى دَارِ النَّدْوَةِ، قَالَ: وَكَانَ عُثْمَانُ حِينَ أَتَمَّ الصَّلَاةَ، إِذَا قَدِمَ مَكَّةَ صَلَّى بِهَا الظُّهْرَ وَالْعَصْرَ وَالْعِشَاءَ الْآخِرَةَ أَرْبَعًا أَرْبَعًا، فَإِذَا خَرَجَ إِلَى مِنًى وَعَرَفَاتٍ قَصَرَ الصَّلَاةَ، فَإِذَا فَرَغَ مِنَ الْحَجِّ وَأَقَامَ بِمِنًى أَتَمَّ الصَّلَاةَ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ مِنْ مَكَّةَ، فَلَمَّا صَلَّى بِنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ (١) الظُّهْرَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ نَهَضَ إِلَيْهِ مَرْوَانُ بْنُ، ، الْحَكَمِ وعَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، فَقَالَا لَهُ: مَا عَابَ أَحَدٌ ابْنَ عَمِّكَ بِأَقْبَحِ مَا عِبْتَهُ بِهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: وَمَا ذَاكَ (١) ؟ قَالَ: فَقَالَا لَهُ: أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ أَتَمَّ الصَّلَاةَ بِمَكَّةَ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: وَيْحَكُمَا، وَهَلْ كَانَ غَيْرُ مَا صَنَعْتُ؟ " قَدْ صَلَّيْتُهُمَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَعَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ "، رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَا: فَإِنَّ ابْنَ عَمِّكَ قَدْ كَانَ أَتَمَّهَا (٢) ، وَإِنَّ خِلَافَكَ إِيَّاهُ لَهُ عَيْبٌ، قَالَ: " فَخَرَجَ مُعَاوِيَةُ إِلَى الْعَصْرِ فَصَلَّاهَا بِنَا (٣) أَرْبَعًا " (٤)، ،
Translation
English translation
Ubad says: When Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) came to us for Hajj, we also went with him to Makkah Mukarramah. He led us in two rak‘ahs of Zuhr and went to Dar al-Nadwah. Whereas, from the time Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) started performing the full prayer, whenever he came to Makkah Mukarramah, he would perform four rak‘ahs each for Zuhr, Asr, and Isha, and would shorten the prayer in Mina and Arafat. And when he would stay in Mina after completing Hajj, he would perform the full prayer until he departed from Makkah. When Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) led us in two rak‘ahs of Zuhr (contrary to this), Marwan bin Hakam and Amr bin Uthman stood up and said: "No one has ever criticized your cousin as badly as you have." He asked: "How is that?" Both of them said: "Do you not know that Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) used to perform the full prayer in Makkah Mukarramah?" Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: "Alas! I thought, what is it that I have done? I have only performed two rak‘ahs with the Prophet (ﷺ) and the two Shaykhs (Abu Bakr and Umar)." Both of them said: "Your cousin performed the full four rak‘ahs, and your opposing him is a blameworthy act." So when he came to lead the Asr prayer, he led four rak‘ahs.
