836 - ʿAmr ibn ʿAlī informed us, saying: Yaḥyā narrated to us, from Ashʿath, from al-Ḥasan, from Abū Bakrah, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: that he prayed the prayer of fear. He prayed two rakʿahs with those behind him, and two rakʿahs with those who came [afterward], so it was four for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and two and two for these [two groups].

Similar to this.

It was also recorded by Aḥmad (14960), al-Bukhārī (700), (701), (711), and (6106), Muslim (465): (180) and (181), al-Tirmidhī (583), and Ibn Ḥibbān (1524) and (2403) via multiple chains, from ʿAmr ibn Dīnār, with similar wording, some of them abridged.

It has preceded via the chain of Muḥārib ibn Dithār and Abū Ṣāliḥ al-Sammān, from Jābir, under number (831).

(1) In the margins of (K) and (H): Bishr ibn Hilāl. (a variant copy). It bears the mark of authenticity in (K), and al-Mizzī referred to this copy in "Tuḥfat al-Ashrāf" 9/41.

(2) Ṣaḥīḥ by virtue of corroboration; its narrators are trustworthy, though there is disagreement regarding al-Ḥasan—namely al-Baṣrī—having heard from Abū Bakrah. Some affirmed it, such as al-Bukhārī in "al-Tārīkh al-Kabīr" 2/56, and he included [narrations] from his transmission from Abū Bakrah in his "Ṣaḥīḥ"; others denied it, such as al-Dāraquṭnī and others. However, al-Ḥasan did not explicitly state in this ḥadīth that he heard it from Abū Bakrah, and he was a mudallis. Yaḥyā is Ibn Saʿīd al-Qaṭṭān, and Ashʿath is Ibn ʿAbd al-Malik al-Ḥumrānī. The ḥadīth is in "al-Sunan al-Kubrā" under number (1956) with this same chain, and under number (912) from Bishr ibn Hilāl, from Yaḥyā, with the same wording as the narration here, which supports that the author's shaykh in this narration was Bishr ibn Hilāl. This discrepancy does no harm, for both are trustworthy.

It was also recorded by Aḥmad (20408) from Yaḥyā al-Qaṭṭān, with this chain.

It was also recorded by Aḥmad (20497), Abū Dāwūd (1248), and the author as will come under number (1551), and Ibn Ḥibbān (2881) via multiple chains, from Ashʿath, with it, and in their versions there is the taslīm after every two rakʿahs.

Abū Dāwūd said: And this was the fatwā of al-Ḥasan.

Ashʿath was contradicted in his narration from al-Ḥasan; for Qatādah (and others) narrated it from al-Ḥasan, from Jābir, as will come under number (1552), and in it there is the taslīm after every two rakʿahs.

The ḥadīth is authentically established from the narration of Yaḥyā ibn Abī Kathīr, from Abū Salamah ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, from Jābir, as in "Musnad" Aḥmad (14928) and "Ṣaḥīḥ" Muslim (843), and al-Bukhārī suspended it in his "Ṣaḥīḥ" =
