\nNarrated `Abdullah bin `Umar:\n\n
\"I saw Allah's Apostle delaying the Maghrib prayer till he offered it along with the `Isha' prayer \nwhenever he was in a hurry during the journey.\" Salim narrated, \"Ibn `Umar used to do the same \nwhenever he was in a hurry during the journey.\" And Salim added, \"Ibn `Umar used to pray the \nMaghrib and `Isha' prayers together in Al-Muzdalifa.\" Salim said, \"Ibn `Umar delayed the Maghrib \nprayer because at that time he heard the news of the death of his wife Safiya bint Abi `Ubaid. I said to \nhim, 'The prayer (is due).' He said, 'Go on.' Again I said, 'The prayer (is due).' He said, 'Go on,' till we \ncovered two or three miles. Then he got down, prayed and said, 'I saw the Prophet praying in this way, \nwhenever he was in a hurry during the journey.' `Abdullah (bin `Umar) added, \"Whenever the \nProphet was in a hurry, he used to delay the Maghrib prayer and then offer three rak`at (of the \nMaghrib) and perform Taslim, and after waiting for a short while, Iqama used to be pronounced for \nthe `Isha' prayer when he would offer two rak`at and perform Taslim. He would never offer any \noptional prayer till the middle of the night (when he used to pray the Tahajjud).\"","english_grade":"Sahih","last_updated":null,"xrefs":""}
