Sayyiduna Abu Ayyash Zurqi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was present at the place of Usfan, while the polytheists were at the place of Dajnan. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed the Zuhr prayer, the polytheists saw him bowing and prostrating, so they consulted among themselves that they would attack him. When the time for the Asr prayer came, the people formed two rows behind the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said the takbir, and all the people also said the takbir. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) bowed, and all the people bowed. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went into prostration, so the row that was standing close to him went into prostration, while the other row, holding their weapons, stood facing the enemy. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his head, the second row also performed prostration. When they raised their heads, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) bowed, and all the people bowed. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prostrated, so the row that was standing close to him prostrated, while the other row, holding their weapons, stood facing the enemy. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his head, the second row also performed prostration.

(Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:) There is a difference of opinion regarding the name of the narrator Abu Ayyash Zurqi. Some have said that his name is Zayd bin Nu’man, and some have said that it is Zayd bin Samit. Some have said it is Ubayd bin Mu’awiyah bin Samit, while others have said it is Ubayd bin Mu’adh bin Samit.
