حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ جَابِرٍ سَمِعْتُ سَالِمَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يُحَدِّثُ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا يُصَلِّي فِي السَّفَرِ إِلَّا رَكْعَتَيْنِ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَتَهَجَّدُ مِنْ اللَّيْلِ قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَقُلْتُ لِسَالِمٍ كَانَا يُوتِرَانِ قَالَ نَعَمْ
