English translation

936. It was narrated that Abu Malih said: "I went out on a rainy night (for congregational prayer), and when I came back I asked for the door to be opened. My father said: 'Who is this?' I said: 'Abu Malih.' He said: 'We were with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ at Hudaybiyah and it rained a little, such that the soles of our sandals did not get wet. The announcer of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ called out: 'Perform prayer at your camps.'" (Sahih)

Arabic text

936 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمَلِيحِ، قَالَ: خَرَجْتُ فِي لَيْلَةٍ مَطِيرَةٍ، فَلَمَّا رَجَعْتُ اسْتَفْتَحْتُ، فَقَالَ أَبِي: مَنْ هَذَا؟ قَالَ: أَبُو الْمَلِيحِ، قَالَ: لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ، وَأَصَابَتْنَا سَمَاءٌ، لَمْ تَبُلَّ أَسَافِلَ نِعَالِنَا، فَنَادَى مُنَادِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «صَلُّوا فِي رِحَالِكُمْ»
