أَخْبَرَنَا هَنَّادٌ، عَنْ هُشَيْمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الْمُشْرِكِينَ شَغَلُوا النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ أَرْبَعِ صَلَوَاتٍ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ فَأَمَرَ بِلاَلاً

فَأَذَّنَ ثُمَّ أَقَامَ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ ثُمَّ أَقَامَ فَصَلَّى الْعَصْرَ ثُمَّ أَقَامَ فَصَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ ثُمَّ أَقَامَ فَصَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ ‏.‏

It was narrated that Abu 'Ubaidah said:

"Abdullah said: 'The idolaters kept the Prophet (S.A.W) from (offering) four prayers on the day of Al-Khandaq, so he commanded Bilal to call the Adhan, then he said the Iqamah and prayed Zuhr, then he said the Iqamah and prayed 'Asr, then he said the Iqamah and prayed the Maghrib, then he said the Iqamah and prayed 'Isha'.'"

Reported by An-Nasa’i (No. 662), At-Tirmidhi (No. 179) and Ahmad (No. 3374).

قَوْله ( عَنْ أَرْبَع صَلَوَات يَوْم الْخَنْدَق ) لَا يُنَافِي مَا تَقَدَّمَ لِامْتِدَادِ الْوَقْعَة فَيُمْكِن أَنْ يَكُون كُلّ مِنْهُمَا فِي يَوْم عَلَى أَنَّ الْمَعْنَى أَنَّهُمْ شَغَلُوهُ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى اِجْتَمَعَ أَرْبَع صَلَوَات وَذَلِكَ لِأَنَّ الْعِشَاء كَانَتْ فِي الْوَقْت وَحِينَئِذٍ يُمْكِن أَنْ يَكُون الْمَغْرِب فِي الْوَقْت لَكِنَّهَا كَانَتْ فِي آخِر الْوَقْت وَالْعِشَاء فِي أَوَّلهَا وَاَللَّه تَعَالَى أَعْلَم.…
