حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الأَحْوَصِ، - وَهَذَا حَدِيثُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ - عَنْ أَشْعَثَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ - رضى الله عنها - عَنْ صَلاَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقُلْتُ لَهَا أَىُّ حِينٍ كَانَ يُصَلِّي قَالَتْ كَانَ إِذَا سَمِعَ الصُّرَاخَ قَامَ فَصَلَّى .
