Arabic (Original)
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ عَنْ أَشْعَثَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ «صَفَّهُمْ صَفَّيْنِ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ بِالصَّفِّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ وَتَأَخَّرُوا وَتَقَدَّمَ الْآخَرُونَ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ فَكَانَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ وَلِلْمُسْلِمِينَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ»
English Translation
Abu Bakrah reported: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) arranged them in two rows and prayed two rak'ahs with the row nearest to him, then made tasleem. They moved back and the others came forward, and he prayed two rak'ahs with them, then made tasleem. Thus it was four rak'ahs for the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and two rak'ahs each for the Muslims.
