حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْدِيُّ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْثُ بْنُ مُطَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ مُطَيْرٍ ومُطَيْرٌ حَاضِرٌ يُصَدِّقُهُ مَقَالَتَهُ قَالَ كَيْفَ كُنْتُ أَخْبَرْتُكَ قَالَ يَا أَبَتَاهُ أَخْبَرْتَنِي أَنَّكَ لَقِيَكَ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ بِذِي خُشُبٍ فَأَخْبَرَكَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى بِهِمْ إِحْدَى صَلَاتَيْ الْعَشِيِّ وَهِيَ الْعَصْرُ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَخَرَجَ سَرَعَانُ النَّاسِ وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ أَقَصُرَتْ الصَّلَاةُ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَاتَّبَعَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا وَهُمَا مُبْتَدٍ فَلَحِقَهُ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَقَصُرَتْ الصَّلَاةُ أَقَصُرَتْ الصَّلَاةُ أَمْ نَسِيتَ فَقَالَ مَا قَصُرَتْ وَلَا نَسِيتُ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا فَقَالَ مَا يَقُولُ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ فَقَالَا صَدَقَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَرَجَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَثَابَ النَّاسُ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْ السَّهْوِ قَالَ أَبُو سُلَيْمَانَ حَدَّثْتُ سِتَّ سِنِينَ أَوْ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ وَشَكَكْتُ فِيهِ وَهُوَ أَكْثَرُ حِفْظِي.

'Abdullah narrated to us: Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna narrated to me, he said: Ma'di ibn Sulayman narrated to us, he said: Shu'ayth ibn Mutayyar narrated to us, from his father Mutayyar -- and Mutayyar was present, confirming his son's account -- he said: "How did I tell you?" Shu'ayth said: "O father, you told me that Dhu al-Yadayn met you at Dhu Khushub, and told you that the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, led them in one of the two afternoon prayers, that is, the 'Asr, and he prayed two rak'ahs and the people, in haste, went out, saying: 'Has the prayer been shortened?' Then the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, stood up, and Abu Bakr and 'Umar, may God be pleased with them both, followed him, being hesitant, and Dhu al-Yadayn caught up with him and said: 'O Messenger of God, has the prayer been shortened, or have you forgotten?' He said: 'It has not been shortened, and I have not forgotten.' Then he turned to Abu Bakr and 'Umar, may God be pleased with them both, and said: 'What does Dhu al-Yadayn say?' They said: 'He has spoken the truth, O Messenger of God.' So the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, went back, and the people returned, and he prayed two rak'ahs, then gave the salutation, then performed the two prostrations of forgetfulness." Abu Sulayman said: I narrated this for six or seven years, then said he gave the salutation, and I am uncertain about it, though it is the greater part of what I recall.
