حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ أَسَدٍ أَخْبَرَنَا شَبَابَةُ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ انْصَرَفَ مِنْ الرَّکْعَتَيْنِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْمَکْتُوبَةِ فَقَالَ لَه رَجُلٌ أَقُصِرَتْ الصَّلَاةُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَمْ نَسِيتَ قَالَ کُلَّ ذَلِکَ لَمْ أَفْعَلْ فَقَالَ النَّاسُ قَدْ فَعَلْتَ ذَلِکَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَرَکَعَ رَکْعَتَيْنِ أُخْرَيَيْنِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ وَلَمْ يَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَيْ السَّهْوِ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد رَوَاهُ دَاوُدُ بْنُ الْحُصَيْنِ عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ مَوْلَی ابْنِ أَبِي أَحْمَدَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِهَذِهِ الْقِصَّةِ قَالَ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ بَعْدَ التَّسْلِيمِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 1015
Narrated Abu Hurairah: When the Prophet ﷺ finished two rak'ahs of an obligatory prayer, a man asked him: Messenger of Allah, has the prayer been shortened, or have you forgotten? he replied: I did not do all that. The people said: Messenger of Allah, you did that. Therefore, he offered another two rak'ahs or prayer and did not make two prostrations due to forgetfulness. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has also been narrated by Dawud al-Hussain from Abu Sufyan, freed slave of Ibn Abi Ahmad on the authority of Abu Hurairah from the Prophet ﷺ. This version goes: He then made two prostrations while he was sitting after the salutation.
