أَخْبَرَنِي کَثِيرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ بَقِيَّةَ عَنْ شُعَيْبٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَالِمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ غَزَوْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قِبَلَ نَجْدٍ فَوَازَيْنَا الْعَدُوَّ وَصَافَفْنَاهُمْ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي بِنَا فَقَامَتْ طَائِفَةٌ مِنَّا مَعَهُ وَأَقْبَلَ طَائِفَةٌ عَلَی الْعَدُوِّ فَرَکَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَنْ مَعَهُ رَکْعَةً وَسَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفُوا فَکَانُوا مَکَانَ أُولَئِکَ الَّذِينَ لَمْ يُصَلُّوا وَجَائَتْ الطَّائِفَةُ الَّتِي لَمْ تُصَلِّ فَرَکَعَ بِهِمْ رَکْعَةً وَسَجْدَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَامَ کُلُّ رَجُلٍ مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَرَکَعَ لِنَفْسِهِ رَکْعَةً وَسَجْدَتَيْنِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1544
Salim bin ‘Abdullah narrated that his father said: “I went out on a campaign with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم in toward Najd. We confronted the enemy and formed ranks facing them. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم stood up and led us in prayer. Some of us stood with him and some of us faced the enemy. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم bowed and those who were with him bowed, and prostrated twice. Then they moved away and took the place of the others, and the other group who had not prayed came and he led them in bowing once and prostrating twice. Then the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said the Sn/am and each of the Muslims stood up and bowed once, and prostrated twice individually.” (Sahih)
