253 – Abu Khaythama narrated to us; he said: Ahmad ibn al-Hajjaj al-Marwazi narrated to us; he said: Abdullah ibn Abi Qatadah narrated to us, from his father, that the Prophet ﷺ said: “I sometimes rise for prayer intending to lengthen it, but when I hear a child crying I cut it short, so as not to burden that child’s mother.”
٢٥٣ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «إِنِّي لَأَقُومُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أُطَوِّلَهَا، فَأَسْمَعَ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ فَأَتَجَوَّزَ فِي صَلَاتِي حَتَّى لَا أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمِّهِ»
