Qutaybah ibn Sa'id narrated to us, from Malik ibn Anas, from Dawud ibn al-Husayn, from Abu Sufyan, the freed slave of Ibn Abi Ahmad, that he said: I heard Abu Hurayrah say: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, led us in the 'Asr prayer and gave the salutation after two rak'ahs. Then Dhul-Yadayn stood up and said, "Has the prayer been shortened, O Messenger of Allah, or did you forget?" The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Neither of that happened." He said, "Indeed, some of that did happen, O Messenger of Allah." So the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, turned to the people and said, "Is Dhul-Yadayn telling the truth?" They said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." So the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, completed what remained of the prayer, then he prostrated two prostrations while seated, after the salutation.
