اخبرنا ابن قتيبة ، حدثنا حرملة ، حدثنا ابن وهب ، اخبرني يونس ، عن ابن شهاب ، حدثني عبيد الله بن عبد الله بن الحارث بن نوفل ، ان اباه قال: سالت وحرصت على ان اجد احدا من الناس يخبرني، ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم سبح سبحة الضحى، فلم اجد احدا يخبرني عن ذلك غير ام هانئ بنت ابي طالب ، اخبرتني:" ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم اتى بعد ارتفاع النهار يوم الفتح، فامر بثوب، فستر عليه، فاغتسل ثم قام فركع ثماني ركعات، لا ادري اقيامه فيها اطول ام ركوعه ام سجوده، كل ذلك متقاربة" ، قالت:" فلم اره سبحها قبل ولا بعد".
Ubaidullah bin Abdullah bin Harith narrates from his father: I investigated this matter and was very eager to find someone who could inform me about it—whether the Prophet (peace be upon him) performed the Duha prayer. I found only Lady Umm Hani (may Allah be pleased with her), who informed me about this: She told me that on the day of the conquest of Makkah, after the day had advanced, the Prophet (peace be upon him) arrived. By his order, a cloth was hung for his privacy, and he performed ghusl (ritual bath). Then he stood up and performed eight rak‘ahs. I cannot determine whether his standing, his bowing, or his prostration was longer; all of these were nearly equal in length. Lady Umm Hani (may Allah be pleased with her) states: I never saw him perform voluntary prayers at that time, either before or after this occasion.
