English translation

333. Anas bin Mālik narrated: "Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used to mingle with us such that he said to my younger brother: 'O Abū 'Umair! What did the Nughair[2] do?'" He (Anas) said: "A Bisāt of ours would be sprinkled (with water) to perform Ṣalāt on." (Ṣaḥīḥ) He said: There is something on this topic from Ibn 'Abbās. Abū 'Eisā said: The Hadīth of Anas is a Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ Hadīth. This is acted upon according to most of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ and those after them among the Tābi'īn. They did not see any harm in Ṣalāt on a Bisāt or a Tunfusah.[3] This is the saying of Aḥmad and Ishāq. And the name of Abū At-Tayyāḥ (one of the narrators) is Yazīd bin Ḥumaid.

٣٣٣ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌هَنَّادٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ ‌شُعْبَةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ الضُّبَعِيِّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ‌أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُخَالِطُنَا، حَتَّى كَانَ يَقُولُ لِأَخٍ لِي صَغِيرٍ: يَا أَبَا عُمَيْرٍ،» مَا فَعَلَ النُّغَيْرُ؟ قَالَ: وَنُضِحَ بِسَاطٌ لَنَا فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ. حَدِيثُ أَنَسٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَكْثَرِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَنْ بَعْدَهُمْ: لَمْ يَرَوْا بِالصَّلَاةِ عَلَى الْبِسَاطِ وَالطُّنْفُسَةِ بَأْسًا، وَبِهِ يَقُولُ أَحْمَدُ وَإِسْحَاقُ. وَاسْمُ أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ يَزِيدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ.

Some Tābi'īn stated offering prayer on the carpet is disliked, but according to Imām Abū Hanīfah and Shāfi'ī, it is lawful. The majority of the scholars have the same opinion.
