1004. It was narrated that Jābir bin Samurah said: "Some of the people of Al-Kūfah complained about Sa'd to 'Umar. They said: 'By Allāh, he does not pray properly.' He said: 'I lead them in prayer as the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ did, and I do not deviate from that. I take my time in the first two Rak'ahs and make the other two shorter.' He ('Umar) said: "That is what I thought about you." (Sahih)

Arabic text

1003 - أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ دَاوُدَ الطَّائِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ: وَقَعَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ فِي سَعْدٍ عِنْدَ عُمَرَ فَقَالُوا: وَاللَّهِ مَا يُحْسِنُ الصَّلَاةَ. فَقَالَ: «أَمَّا أَنَا فَأُصَلِّي بِهِمْ صَلَاةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، لَا أَخْرِمُ عَنْهَا أَرْكُدُ فِي الْأُولَيَيْنِ، وَأَحْذِفُ فِي الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ». قَالَ: ذَاكَ الظَّنُّ بِكَ
