Chapter
1: The travelers’ prayer and shortening it.
'A'isha, the wife of the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ), reported:
The prayer was prescribed as two rak'ahs, two
rak'ahs both in journey and at the place of residence. The prayer while
travelling remained as it was (originally prescribed), but an addition was made
in the prayer (observed) at the place of residence. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 1)
'A'isha, the wife
of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), said Allah prescribed the prayer as two rak'ahs,
then it was completed (to four rak'ahs) at the place of residence, but was
retained in the same position in journey as it was first made obligatory.
(Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 2)
'A'isha reported:
The prayer was prescribed
as consisting of two rak'ahs, the prayer in travelling remained the same, but
the prayer at the place of residence was completed. (Zuhri said he asked 'Urwa
why 'A'isha said prayer in the complete form during journey, and he replied
that she interpreted the matter herself as 'Uthman did.) (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 3)
Yahya b. Umayya said:
I told 'Umar b. al-Khattab
that Allah had said:" You may shorten the prayer only if you fear that
those who are unbelievers may afflict you" (Qur'an, iv. 101), whereas the
people are now safe. He replied: I wondered about it in the same way as you
wonder about it, so I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about it and he said: It
is an act of charity which Allah has done to you, so accept His charity. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 4)
Ya'la b. Umayya reported:
I said to 'Umar b.
al-Khattab, and the rest of the hadith is the same. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 5)
Ibn 'Abbas reported:
Allah has prescribed the
prayer through the word of your Prophet (ﷺ) as four rak'ahs when resident, two
when travelling, and one when danger is present. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 6)
Ibn 'Abbas reported:
Allah has prescribed the
prayer by the tongue of your Apostle (ﷺ) as two rak'ahs for the traveller, four
for the resident, and one in danger. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 7)
Musa b. Salama Hudhali
said:
I asked Ibn 'Abbas: How
should I say prayer when I am in Mecca, and when I do not pray along with the
Imam? He said: Two rak'ahs (of prayer) is the Sunnah of Abu'l-Qasim (ﷺ). (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 8)
A hadith like
this has been narrated by Abu Qatada with the same chain of transmitters.
(Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 9)
Hafs b. 'Asim said:
I accompanied Ibn 'Umar on
the road to Mecca and he led us in two rak'ahs at the noon prayer, then he went
forward and we too went along with him to a place where he alighted, and he sat
and we sat along with him, and he cast a glance to the side where he said
prayer and he saw people standing and asked: What are they doing? I said: They
are engaged in glorifying Allah, offering Sunnah prayer. He said: If I had done
so I would have perfected my prayer; O my nephew! I accompanied the Messenger
of Allah (ﷺ) on a journey, and he made no addition to two rak'ahs, till Allah
called him. I accompanied Abu Bakr and he made no addition to two rak'ahs till
Allah caused him to die. I accompanied 'Umar and he made no addition to two
rak'ahs till Allah caused him to die. I accompanied 'Uthman and he made no
addition to two rak'ahs, till Allah caused him to die, and Allah has
said:" There is a model pattern for you in the Messenger of Allah"
(al-Qur'an, xxxiii. 21). (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 10)
Hafs b. 'Asim reported:
I fell ill and lbn 'Umar
came to inquire after my health, and I asked him about the glorification of
Allah (i.e. prayer) while travelling. Thereupon he said: I accompanied the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) on a journey but I did not see him glorifying Him, and
were I to glorify (Him). I would have completed the prayer. Allah, the Exalted,
has said:" Verily there is a model pattern for you in the Messenger of
Allah." (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 11)
Anas reported:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said four rak'ahs in the noon prayer while at Medina, but he offered two
rak'ahs in the afternoon prayer at Dhu'l-Hulaifa. (Sahih

Anas b. Malik is reported
to have said:
I observed four rak'ahs in
the noon prayer with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) at Medina, and said two rak'ahs
in the afternoon prayer at Dhu'l-Hulaifa. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 13)
Yahya b. Yazid al-Huna'i
reported:
I asked Anas b. Malik about
shortening of prayer. He said: When the Messenger of' Allah (ﷺ) had covered a
distance of three miles or three farsakh (Shu'ba, one of the narrators, had
some doubt about it) he observed two rak'ahs. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 14)
Jubair b. Nufair reported:
I went along with Shurahbil
b. al-Simt to a village which was situated at a distance of seventeen or
eighteen miles, and he said only two rak'ahs of prayer. I said to him (about
it) and he said: I saw 'Umar observing two rak'ahs at Dhu'l-Hulaifa and I (too)
said to him (about it) and he said: I am doing the same as I saw the Messenger
of Allah (ﷺ) doing. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 15)
This hadith has
been transmitted by Shu'ba with the same chain of narrators and it is narrated
from Simt, and the name of Shurahbil has not been mentioned, and he said that
he had gone to a place called Dumin, situated at a distance of eighteen miles
from Hims. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 16)
Anas b. Malik reported:
We went out from Medina to
Mecca with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he prayed two rak'ahs at each time of
prayer till we returned to Medina. I said: For how long did he stay in Mecca?
He said: (For) ten (days). (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 17)

this has been narrated by Anas by another chain of transmitters. (Sahih

We went out for Pilgrimage from Medina. The rest is the same. (Sahih
