1153. Abū 'Āishah, who sat with Abū Hurairah, narrated that Sa'eed bin Al-'Āsh asked Abū Mūsā Al-Ash'ari and Ḥudhaifah bin Al-Yamān: "How did the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ perform the Takbir during (Eid) Al-Adha and Al-Fitr?" Abū Mūsā said: "He would say the Takbir four times, just like he would do for the funeral prayer." Ḥudhaifah said: "He has told the truth." So Abū Mūsā said: "And this is how I would say the Takbir in Al-Baṣrah, while I was in charge of them." And Abū 'Āishah said: "And I was present (at this time) with Sa'eed bin Al-'Āsh." (Da'if)
