1074 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ وَقَرَأْتُهُ عَلَيْهِ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَطَاءٌ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، فِي أُنَاسٍ مَعِي، قَالَ: «قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَكَّةَ صُبْحَ رَابِعَةٍ مَضَتْ مِنْ شَهْرِ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ»

Commentary
The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ arrived in Makkah in the morning of the fourth day of Dhul-Hijjah, and therefrom departed for Mina on the Day of Tarwiyah (8th of Dhul-Hijjah). The report contains the hint that shortened prayer (of two Rak'ah) can be performed up to four days. The conclusion is that, as far as the fixing of the number of days for shortened prayer is concerned, this Hadith is more explicit and decisive. And Allāh knows best. However, both the positions are correct.
