English translation

1238. It was reported from Mālik, from Yazīd bin Rūmān, from Ṣāliḥ bin Khawwāt who narrated from someone who had prayed the Prayer of Fear with the Messenger of Allāh on the Day of Ar-Riqā', that one group stood with him while the other group faced the enemy. So he led those that were with him in one Rak'ah, and remained standing, while they completed (the prayer) by themselves, then left and faced the enemy. The other group then came, and he led them in the one Rak'ah that was left of his prayer, then remained sitting while they completed (the prayer) by themselves. Then he said the Taslim with them. (Saḥīḥ) Mālik said: The narration of Yazīd bin Rūmān is the most beloved narration to me.

1238 - حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ رُومَانَ، عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ خَوَّاتٍ، عَمَّنْ صَلَّى مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَوْمَ ذَاتِ الرِّقَاعِ صَلَاةَ الْخَوْفِ، «أَنَّ طَائِفَةً صَفَّتْ مَعَهُ، وَطَائِفَةً وِجَاهَ الْعَدُوِّ، فَصَلَّى بِالَّتِي مَعَهُ رَكْعَةً، ثُمَّ ثَبَتَ قَائِمًا، وَأَتَمُّوا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفُوا، وَصَفُّوا وِجَاهَ الْعَدُوِّ، وَجَاءَتِ الطَّائِفَةُ الْأُخْرَى، فَصَلَّى بِهِمُ الرَّكْعَةَ الَّتِي بَقِيَتْ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ، ثُمَّ ثَبَتَ جَالِسًا وَأَتَمُّوا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ، ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ بِهِمْ»، قَالَ مَالِكٌ: «وَحَدِيثُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ رُومَانَ أَحَبُّ مَا سَمِعْتُ إِلَيَّ»
