5) Chapter: When a traveller leaves his original place, he can shorten his Salat (prayer)
Narrated `Aisha:
"When the prayers were first enjoined they were of two rak`at each. Later the prayer in a journey was
kept as it was but the prayers for non-travelers were completed." Az-Zuhri said, "I asked `Urwa what
made Aisha pray the full prayers (in journey)." He replied, "She did the same as `Uthman did."
5) باب يَقْصُرُ إِذَا خَرَجَ مِنْ مَوْضِعِهِ
وَخَرَجَ عَلِيٌّ- عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ- فَقَصَرَ وَهْوَ يَرَى الْبُيُوتَ فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ قِيلَ لَهُ هَذِهِ الْكُوفَةُ. قَالَ لاَ حَتَّى نَدْخُلَهَا.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتِ الصَّلاَةُ أَوَّلُ مَا فُرِضَتْ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَأُقِرَّتْ صَلاَةُ السَّفَرِ، وَأُتِمَّتْ صَلاَةُ الْحَضَرِ. قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ فَقُلْتُ لِعُرْوَةَ مَا بَالُ عَائِشَةَ تُتِمُّ قَالَ تَأَوَّلَتْ مَا تَأَوَّلَ عُثْمَانُ.
