وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ بْنُ عَبْدَانَ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ بَيَانَ ثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ح وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْفَقِيهُ أنبأ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْحَافِظُ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثنا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْعَيْشِيُّ ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ وَجِعًا فَأَمَرَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ بِالنَّاسِ قَالَتْ فَوَجَدَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ خِفَّةً فَجَاءَ فَقَعَدَ إِلَى جَنْبِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَأَمَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَبَا بَكْرٍ وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ وَأَمَّ أَبُو بَكْرٍ النَّاسَ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِهِمَا سَوَاءٌ وَفِي صَلَاتِهِ ﷺ جَالِسًا فِي مَرَضِهِ دَلَالَةٌ عَلَى مَا قَصَدْنَاهُ بِهَذَا الْبَابِ وَفِي صَلَاتِهِ بِأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ قَائِمٌ دَلَالَةٌ عَلَى أَنَّ الْأَمْرَ الْأَوَّلَ صَارَ مَنْسُوخًا وَأَنَّ الصَّحِيحَ يُصَلِّي قَائِمًا وَإِنْ صَلَّى إِمَامُهُ قَاعِدًا بِالْعُذْرِ وَبِاللهِ التَّوْفِيقُ
English Translation
Abu al-Hasan ibn Abdan informed us, Ahmad ibn Ubayd informed us, Ali ibn al-Hasan ibn Bayan narrated to us, Ubaydullah ibn Muhammad narrated to us. And Abu Bakr ibn al-Harith al-Faqih informed us, Ali ibn Umar al-Hafiz informed us, Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn Abd al-Aziz narrated to us, Ubaydullah ibn Muhammad al-Ayshi narrated to us, Hammad ibn Salamah narrated to us from Hisham ibn Urwah from his father from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was in pain and ordered Abu Bakr to lead the people in prayer. She said: Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) felt some relief, so he came and sat beside Abu Bakr. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) led Abu Bakr in prayer while he was sitting, and Abu Bakr led the people while he was standing. The wording of both narrations is the same. In his praying sitting during his illness, there is evidence for what we have intended in this chapter. And in his leading Abu Bakr while he was sitting and Abu Bakr was standing, there is evidence that the earlier command was abrogated, and that one who is able should pray standing even if his imam prays sitting due to an excuse. And success is from Allah.
