English translation

1719. Shu'bah narrated from Qatâdah, from Zurârah bin Awfa, from Sa'd bin Hishâm, that 'Aîshah said: "When the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ grew old and put on weight, he prayed seven Rak'ahs and only sat in the last of them, and he prayed two Rak'ahs while sitting after saying the Taslîm, and that was nine, O my son! And when the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ offered any prayer he liked to persist in doing so." (Hasan) This is abridged, and Hishâm Ad-Dastawâ'i contradicted him.

1718 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ زُرَارَةَ بْنِ أَوْفَى، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: «لَمَّا أَسَنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَخَذَ اللَّحْمَ صَلَّى سَبْعَ رَكَعَاتٍ لَا يَقْعُدُ إِلَّا فِي آخِرِهِنَّ، وَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ بَعْدَ مَا يُسَلِّمُ، فَتِلْكَ تِسْعٌ يَا بُنَيَّ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا صَلَّى صَلَاةً أَحَبَّ أَنْ يُدَاوِمَ عَلَيْهَا» مُخْتَصَرٌ، خَالَفَهُ هِشَامٌ الدَّسْتُوَائِيُّ
