Azami 1795

Muslim narrated it in "the Mosques" (619) through several routes from Zuhayr, who said, Abu Ishaq told us, from Saeed bin Wahb, from Khabab, who said, then he mentioned it.Khabab is Khabab bin Arat, Abu Abdullah, the freedman of Banu Zahra. He used to be tortured for the sake of Allah, and he was present at Badr, then settled in Kufa, where he died in the year thirty-seven.Zuhayr said, I asked Abu Ishaq, "Was this about Dhuhr?" He said, "Yes." I said, "About hastening it?" He said, "Yes."His statement, "he did not complain to us" means, our complaint went unanswered. His statement, "the heat of the sand" refers to what struck their feet from the heat of the sun on it, because of praying Dhuhr early.Khabab's hadith outwardly contradicts the hadiths of the preceding chapter. They responded to this by explaining that it should be understood as their having requested a delay beyond the time of cooling down, that is, beyond the point when the heat of the sand had subsided, and that this could entail the prayer time expiring, which is why he did not grant their request. Alternatively, it may be that this hadith is abrogated by the hadiths about cooling down, since those came later.Tahawi cited as evidence the hadith of Mughira bin Shuba, who said, We used to pray Dhuhr with the Prophet ﷺ at midday heat, then he said to us, "Cool down for the prayer," and so on.The Hafiz said, this is a hadith whose narrators are trustworthy. It was narrated by Ahmad and Ibn Majah, and Ibn Khuzayma graded it sahih. Khallal transmitted from Ahmad that this was the last of the two practices from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. See "Fath al-Bari" (172).I say, as for the hadith of Mughira bin Shuba, it has already been discussed, noting that it contains Sharik, who has poor memory. However, Bukhari mentioned that he has a corroborating narrator.
