أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ قَزَعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ لَقَدْ کَانَتْ صَلَاةُ الظُّهْرِ تُقَامُ فَيَذْهَبُ الذَّاهِبُ إِلَی الْبَقِيعِ فَيَقْضِي حَاجَتَهُ ثُمَّ يَتَوَضَّأُ ثُمَّ يَجِيئُ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الرَّکْعَةِ الْأُولَی يُطَوِّلُهَا
سنن نسائی · Hadith 978
It was narrated that Abu Saeed Al-Khudri said: “The Iqamah for uhr prayer would be said, and a person could go to Al Baqi’, relieve himself, perform Wudhul’ and come (to the Masjid), and the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم would still be in the first Rak’ah, making it lengthy.”(Sahih).
