Chain of Narration (Isnad)

حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ أَرْسَلَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ مُنْطَلِقٌ إِلَى بَنِي الْمُصْطَلِقِ فَأَتَيْتُهُ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي عَلَى بَعِيرِهِ فَك

Body (Matn)

َلَّمَتْهُ فَقَالَ بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا وَأَشَارَ زُهَيْرٌ بِكَفِّهِ ثُمَّ كَلَّمْتُهُ فَقَالَ بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُهُ يَقْرَأُ وَيُومِئُ بِرَأْسِهِ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ قَالَ مَا فَعَلْتَ فِي الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتُكَ لَهُ فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَمْنَعْنِي أَنْ أُكَلِّمَكَ إِلَّا أَنِّي كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي

English Translation

Hasan narrated to us, Zuhayr narrated to us, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir (رضي الله عنه) who said: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me on an errand while he was heading toward Banu al-Mustaliq. I came to him while he was praying on his camel. I spoke to him, and he gestured to me with his hand. Then I spoke to him again, and he gestured again. I could hear him reciting and he was nodding his head [for ruku and sujud]. When he finished, he said: 'What did you do regarding the matter I sent you for? For indeed, nothing prevented me from speaking to you except that I was praying.'
