Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 6, Hadith 128

It was narrated from Buraid bin Abi Mariam that his father said: “We were with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) on a journey, and we kept going one night, then when it was nearly morning the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) dismounted and slept, and the people slept too. We did not wake up until the sun had risen. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) asked the Mu’adhdhin to call the Adhan, then he prayed the two Rak’ahs before Fajr, then he asked him to say the Iqamah, then he led the people in prayer. Then he told us about everything that will happen until the Hour begins.”

أَخْبَرَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي الأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ، عَنْ بُرَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي سَفَرٍ فَأَسْرَيْنَا لَيْلَةً فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي وَجْهِ الصُّبْحِ نَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَنَامَ وَنَامَ النَّاسُ فَلَمْ نَسْتَيْقِظْ إِلاَّ بِالشَّمْسِ قَدْ طَلَعَتْ عَلَيْنَا فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْمُؤَذِّنَ فَأَذَّنَ ثُمَّ صَلَّى الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ الْفَجْرِ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ ثُمَّ حَدَّثَنَا بِمَا هُوَ كَائِنٌ حَتَّى تَقُومَ السَّاعَةُ ‏.‏

Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 6, Hadith 128

 
The above hadith is from the Sunan an-Nasa’i collection of hadiths. Sunan an-Nasa’i is a cornerstone of hadith literature, meticulously compiled by the celebrated Islamic scholar Ahmad ibn Shu’ayb al-Nasa’i in the 9th century. It is irrevocably positioned as one of the six most important collections, the Kutub al-Sittah, that underpin Sunni Islamic law and belief. The work contains a substantial body of over 5,700 narrations that record the sayings, actions, and tacit approvals of the Prophet Muhammad. Al-Nasa’i’s approach was defined by a rigorous and critical methodology that privileged authentic transmissions and deliberately filtered out weaker ones. This unwavering commitment to quality has established the Sunan as a profoundly reliable and authoritative source.
