Hafs bin 'Asim reported: I fell ill and ibn 'Umar came to inquire after my health, and I asked him about the glorification of Allah (i. e. prayer) while travelling. Thereupon he said: I accompanied the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) on a journey but I did not see him glorifying Him, and were I to glorify (Him), I would have completed the prayer. Allah, the Exalted, has said: "Verily there is a model pattern for you in the Messenger of Allah."

Anas reported: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said four rak'ahs in the noon prayer while at Madinah, but he offered two rak'ahs in the afternoon prayer at Dhu'l-Hulaifa.

Anas bin Malik (RA) is reported to have said: I observed four rak'ahs in the noon prayer with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) at Madinah, and said two rak'ahs in the afternoon prayer at Dhu'l-Hulaifa.

Yahya bin Yazid al-Huna'i reported: I asked Anas bin Malik (RA) about shortening of prayer. He said: When the Messenger of' Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) had covered a distance of three miles or three farsakh (Shu'bah, one of the narrators, had some doubt about it) he observed two rak'ahs.

Jubair bin Nufair reported: I went along with Shurahbil bin al-Simt to a village which was situated at a distance of seventeen or eighteen miles, and he said only two rak'ahs of prayer. I said to him (about it) and he said: I saw 'Umar observing two rak'ahs at Dhu'l-Hulaifa and I (too) said to him (about it) and he said: I am doing the same as I saw the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) doing. (This hadith has been transmitted by Shu'bah with the same chain of narrators and it is narrated from Simt, and the name of Shurahbil has not been mentioned, and he said that he had gone to a place called Dumin, situated at a distance of eighteen miles from Hims.)

Anas bin Malik (RA) reported: We went out from Madinah to Makkah with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and he prayed two rak'ahs at each time of prayer till we returned to Madinah. I said: For how long did he stay in Makkah? He said: (For) ten (days).

A hadith like this has been narrated by Anas by another chain of transmitters.

Yahya bin Abu Ishaq reported: I heard Anas bin Malik (RA) say: We went out for Pilgrimage from Madinah. The rest is the same.
