حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ وَابْنُ بَكْرٍ قَالَا أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِعَطَاءٍ أَيُّ حِينٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ الْعِشَاءَ إِمَامًا أَوْ خِلْوًا قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ يَقُولُ أَعْتَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةً بِالْعِشَاءِ حَتَّى رَقَدَ النَّاسُ وَاسْتَيْقَظُوا وَرَقَدُوا وَاسْتَيْقَظُوا فَقَامَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ الصَّلَاةَ قَالَ عَطَاءٌ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَخَرَجَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ الْآنَ يَقْطُرُ رَأْسُهُ مَاءً وَاضِعٌ يَدَهُ عَلَى شَقِّ رَأْسِهِ فَقَالَ لَوْلَا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي لَأَمَرْتُهُمْ أَنْ يُصَلُّوهَا كَذَلِكَ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 3466
Ibn Juraij said: I said to Ata . Which do you prefer lor me, to pray sha'as an imam the prayer) or to delay it and pray alone? He said: I heard Ibn 'Abbas (RA) say: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) delayed isha' one night until the people had fallen asleep and woken up, and fallen asleep then woken up (again). Then 'Umar bin al-Khattab (RA) stood up and said: The prayer. 'Ata' said: Ibn 'Abbas (RA) said: Then the Prophet of Allah (PBUH) came out, and it is as if I can see him now, with water dripping from his head and putting his hand on the side of his head and saving: "Were it not that it would be too difficult for my urnmah, I would have instructed them to pray at this time."
