حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو السَّوَّاقُ الْبَلْخِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَيْسٍ قَالَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ فَصَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ الصُّبْحَ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَوَجَدَنِي أُصَلِّي فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَهْلاً يَا قَيْسُ أَصَلاَتَانِ مَعًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ رَكَعْتُ رَكْعَتَىِ الْفَجْرِ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَلاَ إِذًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ مِثْلَ هَذَا إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ سَعْدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ سَمِعَ عَطَاءُ بْنُ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ مِنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ ‏.‏ وَإِنَّمَا يُرْوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ مُرْسَلاً ‏.‏ وَقَدْ قَالَ قَوْمٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ لَمْ يَرَوْا بَأْسًا أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ الرَّجُلُ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ بَعْدَ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَسَعْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ هُوَ أَخُو يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَقَيْسٌ هُوَ جَدُّ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ وَيُقَالُ هُوَ قَيْسُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو وَيُقَالُ هُوَ قَيْسُ بْنُ قَهْدٍ ‏.‏ وَإِسْنَادُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ لَيْسَ بِمُتَّصِلٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيُّ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنْ قَيْسٍ ‏.‏ وَرَوَى بَعْضُهُمْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم خَرَجَ فَرَأَى قَيْسًا ‏.‏ وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ‏.‏

"Allah's Messenger (S) went out and the Iqamah was called for the Salat so I prayed As-Subh with him. Then the Prophet (S) turned and found me performing Salat so he said: 'Easy O Qais! Are there two prayers together?' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah! I did not perform the two Rak'ah (before) Fajr.' He said: 'Then there is no harm.'"
