English translation

[1715] 120 - (735) It was narrated that 'Abdullâh bin 'Amr said: "I was told that the Messenger of Allâh ☩ said: 'A man's prayer offered sitting is half a prayer.' I came to him and found him praying sitting. I put my hand on his head and he said: 'What is the matter with you, O 'Abdullâh bin 'Amr?' I said: 'O Messenger of Allâh, I have been told that you said: A man's prayer offered sitting is half a prayer' but you are praying while sitting.' He said: 'Yes, but I am not like any one of you.'"

Arabic text

120 - (735) وحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ يَسَافٍ، عَنْ أَبِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: حُدِّثْتُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «صَلَاةُ الرَّجُلِ قَاعِدًا نِصْفُ الصَّلَاةِ»، قَالَ: فَأَتَيْتُهُ، فَوَجَدْتُهُ يُصَلِّي جَالِسًا، فَوَضَعْتُ يَدِي عَلَى رَأْسِهِ، فَقَالَ: «مَا لَكَ؟ يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو» ‍قُلْتُ: حُدِّثْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَّكَ قُلْتَ: «صَلَاةُ الرَّجُلِ قَاعِدًا عَلَى نِصْفِ الصَّلَاةِ»، وَأَنْتَ تُصَلِّي قَاعِدًا، قَالَ: «أَجَلْ، وَلَكِنِّي لَسْتُ كَأَحَدٍ مِنْكُمْ».
