عَنْ جَابِرٌ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ صَلَاةَ الظُّهْرِ فِي الْخَوْف بِبَطن نخل فَصَلَّى بِطَائِفَةٍ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ طَائِفَةٌ أُخْرَى فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ. رَوَاهُ فِي «شرح السّنة»

English translation

Jabir said the Prophet (ﷺ) was leading the people in the noon prayer in time of danger in a valley with palm trees.* He led a section in two <i>rak'as</i> after which he uttered the salutation; then another section came and he led them in two <i>rak'as</i> after which he uttered the salutation. *The Arabic is <i>bi-bain nakhl</i>. <i>Mirqat</i>, 2, 244, says this is the name of a place between Mecca and at-Ta’if; but the name of that place is Nakhla. Alternatively it is said to be Batn an-nakhl near Medina. [Baghawi] transmitted it in <i>Sharh as-sunna</i>.
