1184. Narrated Marṭhaḍ bin 'Abdullāh Al-Yazanī: I went to 'Uqba bin 'Āmir Al-Juḥanī and said, "Is it not surprising that Abi Tamīm offers two Rak'ā (prayer) before the Ṣalāt-ul-Maghrib (Maghrib prayers)?" 'Uqba said, "We used to do so in the lifetime of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ." I asked him, "What prevents you from offering it now?" He replied, "Business."
1184 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ هُوَ المُقْرِئُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ مَرْثَدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ اليَزَنِيَّ، قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ الجُهَنِيَّ، فَقُلْتُ: أَلاَ أُعْجِبُكَ مِنْ أَبِي تَمِيمٍ يَرْكَعُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ صَلاَةِ المَغْرِبِ؟ فَقَالَ عُقْبَةُ: «إِنَّا كُنَّا نَفْعَلُهُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ»، قُلْتُ: فَمَا يَمْنَعُكَ الآنَ؟ قَالَ: «الشُّغْلُ»
