English translation

This tradition has also been transmitted through a different chain of narrators by Jabir b. 'Abd Allah. This version adds:

He (the Prophet) turned to the people and said: When one of you comes (on Friday) while the imam is preaching, he should pray two rak'ahs and make them short.

Original Arabic chain wording

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ أَبِي بِشْرٍ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ سُلَيْكًا، جَاءَ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ زَادَ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ قَالَ ‏
