أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ يَعْلَی بْنِ عَطَائٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَلِيًّا الْأَزْدِيَّ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ ابْنَ عُمَرَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ مَثْنَی مَثْنَی قَالَ أَبُو عَبْد الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عِنْدِي خَطَأٌ وَاللَّهُ تَعَالَی أَعْلَمُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1671
It was narrated from Ya’la bin ‘Ata’ that he heard ‘Alaihi Al-Azdi (say) that he heard Ibn ‘Umar narrate that the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: “The prayers of the night and day are two by two.” (Hasan) Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman (An-Nasa’i) said: This Hadith, to me, is a mistake, and Allah, Most High, knows best.
