Hadith #507

Arabic Text

English Translation

ʿAlī ibn ʿAbd Allāh narrated to us, Ḥusayn ibn ʿAlī al-Juʿfī narrated to us, from Mujammiʿ ibn Yaḥyā ibn Zayd ibn Jāriyah al-Anṣārī — he said: I heard him mention it — from Saʿīd ibn Abī Burdah, from Abū Burdah, from Abū Mūsā, who said: We prayed Maghrib with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, then said: 'Let us wait and pray ʿIshāʾ with him.' So we waited, and he came out to us and said: 'Are you still here?' We said: 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah, we said we would pray ʿIshāʾ with you.' He said: 'You have done well' — or 'You have done right.' Then he raised his head toward the sky — and he used to frequently raise his head toward the sky.
