أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ أَبِي رِزْمَةَ وَاسْمُهُ غَزْوَانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَی عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ کَانَ يُصَلِّي بِالْمَدِينَةِ يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ الصَّلَاتَيْنِ بَيْنَ الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ وَالْعِشَائِ مِنْ غَيْرِ خَوْفٍ وَلَا مَطَرٍ قِيلَ لَهُ لِمَ قَالَ لِئَلَّا يَکُونَ عَلَی أُمَّتِهِ حَرَجٌ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 606
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas that the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم used to pray in Al-Madinah combining two prayers. Joining Zuhr and ‘Asr, and Maghrib and ‘Isha’, when there was no fear nor rain. It was said to him: “Why?” He said: “So that there would not be any hardship on his Ummah.” (Sahih)
