Sunan Abi Dawud 1235 (Book 4, Hadith 38) #21527
Shortening Prayers During Stay at Tabuk

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) stayed at Tabuk for twenty days and shortened the prayer during his stay.

Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah: The Messenger of Allah stayed at Tabuk twenty days; he shortened the prayer (during his stay). Abu Dawud said: No one narrates this tradition with continuous chain except Ma'mar.
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ ثَوْبَانَ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ أَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ بِتَبُوكَ عِشْرِينَ يَوْمًا يَقْصُرُ الصَّلاَةَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ غَيْرُ مَعْمَرٍ لاَ يُسْنِدُهُ

QUICK LESSONS:
Be mindful of your religious obligations even when you are away from home.

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) stayed in the city of Tabuk for twenty days and during this time he shortened the prayer. This is a practice that is allowed in Islam when one is travelling or staying away from home. It is a way to make it easier on those who are travelling or away from home so that they can still fulfill their religious obligations without feeling too burdened by them. This hadith also teaches us about the importance of being mindful of our religious obligations even when we are away from home and not letting them slip due to convenience or comfort.
