Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَنَسًا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نُضِحَ لَهُ حَصِيرٌ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ رَأَيْتُهُ يُصَلِّي الضُّحَى قَالَ لَمْ أَرَهُ إِلَّا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ.
English Translation
Abd ar-Rahman ibn Mahdi told us, Shu'bah told us, from Anas ibn Sirin, who said: I heard Anas, may God be pleased with him, say: A mat was sprinkled with water for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and he prayed on it. A man said to him, "I saw him praying the mid-morning prayer." He said, "I never saw him do that except on that day."
