English translation

864. Narrated 'Aīshah رضي الله عنها: Once Allāh's Messenger ﷺ delayed the 'Ishā' prayer till 'Umar informed him that the women and children had slept. The Prophet ﷺ came out and said, "None except you from amongst the dwellers of earth were waiting for this Salāt (prayer)." In those days, none offered Salāt except the people of Al-Madīna and they used to offer the 'Ishā' prayer between the disappearance of the twilight and the first third of the night.

Arabic text

864 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو اليَمَانِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، قَالَتْ: أَعْتَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالعَتَمَةِ، حَتَّى نَادَاهُ عُمَرُ: نَامَ النِّسَاءُ وَالصِّبْيَانُ، فَخَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: «مَا يَنْتَظِرُهَا أَحَدٌ غَيْرُكُمْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الأَرْضِ» وَلاَ يُصَلَّى يَوْمَئِذٍ إِلَّا بِالْمَدِينَةِ، وَكَانُوا يُصَلُّونَ العَتَمَةَ فِيمَا بَيْنَ أَنْ يَغِيبَ الشَّفَقُ إِلَى ثُلُثِ اللَّيْلِ الأَوَّلِ
