English translation

353. Anas conveyed that the Prophet ﷺ said: "When supper is present and the Iqāmah for Ṣalāt has been called, then begin with supper." (Ṣaḥīh) Abū 'Eisā said: There are narrations on this topic from 'Aishah, Ibn 'Umar, Salamah bin Al-Akwa', and Umm Salamah. Abū 'Eisā said: The Hadīth of Anas is a Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ Hadīth. This is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ, among them are Abū Bakr, 'Umar, and Ibn 'Umar. It is the view of Aḥmad and Ishāq, they said that one is to begin with supper even if one misses Ṣalāt in the congregation. [Abū 'Eisā said:] I heard Al-Jārūd saying: "I heard Waki' saying the following about this Hadīth: 'Begin with supper when the food is such that one fears it spoiling.'" But the view of some of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ, and others, is more worthy of being followed. They only wanted that a man not stand in Ṣalāt while his heart is distracted by something else. It has been related that Ibn 'Abbās said: "We do not stand in Ṣalāt while there is something (distracting us) in our souls."

٣٥٣ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنِ ‌الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌أَنَسٍ يَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «إِذَا حَضَرَ الْعَشَاءُ» وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَابْدَأُوا بِالْعَشَاءِ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، وَابْنِ عُمَرَ، وَسَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ، وَأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ. حَدِيثُ أَنَسٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَعَلَيْهِ الْعَمَلُ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، مِنْهُمْ: أَبُو بَكْرٍ، وَعُمَرُ، وَابْنُ عُمَرَ، وَبِهِ يَقُولُ أَحْمَدُ وَإِسْحَاقُ، يَقُولَانِ: يَبْدَأُ بِالْعَشَاءِ وَإِنْ فَاتَتْهُ الصَّلَاةُ فِي الْجَمَاعَةِ. سَمِعْتُ الْجَارُودَ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ وَكِيعًا يَقُولُ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ: يَبْدَأُ بِالْعَشَاءِ إِذَا كَانَ طَعَامًا يَخَافُ فَسَادَهُ. وَالَّذِي ذَهَبَ إِلَيْهِ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَغَيْرِهِمْ أَشْبَهُ بِالِاتِّبَاعِ. وَإِنَّمَا أَرَادُوا أَنْ لَا يَقُومَ الرَّجُلُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ وَقَلْبُهُ مَشْغُولٌ بِسَبَبِ شَيْءٍ، وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: لَا نَقُومُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ وَفِي أَنْفُسِنَا شَيْءٌ.
