1199. Ya'la bin Umayyah said: "I asked 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb: 'Do you see that people are shortening the prayer? This, despite the fact that Allāh, the Mighty and Sublime, said: if you fear that those who disbelieve will put you in trial.'[1] And this (fear) has now gone in our days.' He replied: 'I also wondered about what you are wondering about, and I mentioned this to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, and he said: " (This is a) charity that Allāh has given to you, so accept His charity." (Saḥīh)

Arabic text

1199 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، وَمُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا خُشَيْشٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَصْرَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بَابَيْهِ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِعُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ: أَرَأَيْتَ إِقْصَارَ النَّاسِ الصَّلَاةَ، وَإِنَّمَا قَالَ تَعَالَى: {إِنْ خِفْتُمْ أَنْ يَفْتِنَكُمُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا} [النساء: 101]، فَقَدْ ذَهَبَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ، فَقَالَ: عَجِبْتُ مِمَّا عَجِبْتَ مِنْهُ، فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «صَدَقَةٌ تَصَدَّقَ اللَّهُ بِهَا عَلَيْكُمْ، فَاقْبَلُوا صَدَقَتَهُ»،
