Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ، حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْخَيْرِ، يَقُولُ: رَأَيْتُ أَبَا تَمِيمٍ الْجَيْشَانِيَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَرْكَعُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ حِينَ يَسْمَعُ أَذَانَ الْمَغْرِبِ، قَالَ: فَأَتَيْتُ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيَّ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: أَلَا أُعَجِّبُكَ مِنْ أَبِي تَمِيمٍ الْجَيْشَانِيِّ؟ يَرْكَعُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ، وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَغْمِصَهُ. قَالَ عُقْبَةُ: " أَمَا إِنَّا كُنَّا نَفْعَلُهُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ". فَقُلْتُ: مَا يَمْنَعُكَ الْآنَ؟ قَالَ: " الشُّغْلُ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

Abu Al-Khair says that once I saw Abu Tamim Jaishani (may Allah have mercy on him) performing two rak'ahs after hearing the adhan of Maghrib prayer, so I went to Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) and said, "Are you not surprised at Abu Tamim's action that he performs two rak'ahs before Maghrib prayer?" My intention was to lower Abu Tamim in the eyes of Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him), but Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "We also used to do this during the blessed era of the Prophet (ﷺ)." I asked, "Then why do you not do it now?" He replied, "Because of being occupied."
