English translation

1960. 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Yazīd narrated: "‘Uthmān prayed four Rak'ah at Minā. 'Abdullāh (bin Mas'ūd) then said: "I prayed two Rak'ahs with the Prophet ﷺ, and two Rak'ahs with Abū Bakr, and two Rak'ahs with 'Umar," — Ḥafṣ (one of the narrators) added: "And with 'Uthmān at the beginning of his rule, then he completed it (started praying four later)." — The addition from here on is from Abū Mu'āwiyah (one of the narrators) — "Then your paths have differed after this. How I wish that I could substitute these four Rak'ahs with two that will be accepted!" — Al-A'mash (one of the narrators) said: "So Mu'āwiyah bin Qurrah narrated to me from some Shaikhs of his that 'Abdullāh prayed four?!" He said: "So it was said to him: 'You criticized 'Uthmān, then you prayed four?' He said: 'Differing is even worse!'" (Saḥīḥ)

1960 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، أَنَّ أَبَا مُعَاوِيَةَ، وَحَفْصَ بْنَ غِيَاثٍ، حَدَّثَاهُ وَحَدِيثُ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ أَتَمُّ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: صَلَّى عُثْمَانُ بِمِنًى أَرْبَعًا، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: «صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، وَمَعَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، وَمَعَ عُمَرَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ»، زَادَ، عَنْ حَفْصٍ، وَمَعَ عُثْمَانَ صَدْرًا مِنْ إِمَارَتِهِ، ثُمَّ أَتَمَّهَا زَادَ مِنْ هَا هُنَا عَنْ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ، ثُمَّ تَفَرَّقَتْ بِكُمُ الطُّرُقُ فَلَوَدِدْتُ أَنْ لِي مِنْ أَرْبَعِ رَكَعَاتٍ رَكْعَتَيْنِ مُتَقَبَّلَتَيْنِ. قَالَ: الْأَعْمَشُ، فَحَدَّثَنِي مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنُ قُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَشْيَاخِهِ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى أَرْبَعًا، قَالَ: فَقِيلَ لَهُ: عِبْتَ عَلَى عُثْمَانَ ثُمَّ صَلَّيْتُ أَرْبَعًا، قَالَ: «الْخِلَافُ شَرٌّ».
