Narrator:Ibn ‘Abbās
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ، عَنْ مُبَشِّرِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ حَجَّاجِ بْنِ أَرْطَاةَ، عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ الْعَوْفِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم
ـ يَرْكَعُ مِنْ قَبْلِ الْجُمُعَةِ أَرْبَعًا، لاَ يَفْصِلُ فِي شَىْءٍ مِنْهُنَّ .
It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said:
“The Prophet (ﷺ) used to perform four Rak’ah before Friday (prayer), and he did not separate any of them.”
Reported by Ibn Majah (No. 1129).
