English translation
187. Ibn ʿAbbās said: "Allāh's Messenger ﷺ combined the Zuhr and ʿAṣr (prayers), and the Maghrib and Ishā (prayers) in Al-Madinah, without being in a state of fear, nor due to rain." (Ṣaḥīḥ) He said:[1] "They said to Ibn ʿAbbās: 'Why did he do that?' He said: 'He wanted there to be no hardship on his Ummah.'" There is something on this topic from Abū Hurairah. Abū ʿEisā said: The Ḥadīth of Ibn ʿAbbās has been reported through more than one route from him: It was reported from Jābir bin Zaid, Saʿeed bin Jubair, and ʿAbdullāh bin Shaqīq Al-ʿUqailī. It has been reported from Ibn ʿAbbās, from the Prophet ﷺ by other than these as well.
