أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي بَكْرٌ هُوَ ابْنُ مُضَرَ ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْحَارِثِ ، عَنْ بُكَيْرٍ ، أَنَّ كُرَيْبًا مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ حَدَّثَهُ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهِ عَنْهُ رَأَى عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ الْحَارِثِ يُصَلِّي وَرَأْسُهُ مَعْقُوصٌ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ فَقَامَ وَرَاءَهُ، فَجَعَلَ يَحُلُّهُ، وَأَقَرَّ لَهُ الْآخَرُ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، فَقَالَ : مَا لَكَ وَرَأْسِي؟ قَالَ : إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ : " إِنَّمَامَثَلُ هَذَا كَمَثَلِ الَّذِي يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ مَكْتُوفٌ "
Abdullah bin Salih told us: Bakr, who is Ibn Mudar, told me on the authority of Amr, meaning Ibn al-Harith, on the authority of Bukayr, that Kurayb was a freedman. Ibn Abbas told him that Ibn Abbas, may God be pleased with him, saw Abdullah bin Al-Harith praying with his head bowed behind him, so he stood behind him. So he decided to solve it, and the other one agreed to it, then he went to Ibn Abbas and said: What do you have with my head? He said: I heard the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, saying: “The likeness of this is like the one who prays while he is folded.”
