Following Commanders' Instructions

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) offering his prayers in Mina and Al-Abtah, and advising people to follow their commanders.

'Abd Al 'Aziz bin Rufai’ said I asked Anas bin Malik saying "Tell me something you knew about the Apostle of Allaah viz where he offered the noon prayer on Yawm Al Tarwiyah(8th of Dhu Al Hijjah). He replied, In Mina I asked Where did he pray the afternoon prayer on Yaum Al Nafr(12th or 13th of Dhu Al Hijjah). He replied In al-Abtah he then said "Do as your commanders do".
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ الأَزْرَقُ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ رُفَيْعٍ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ قُلْتُ أَخْبِرْنِي بِشَىْءٍ، عَقَلْتَهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ الظُّهْرَ يَوْمَ التَّرْوِيَةِ فَقَالَ بِمِنًى ‏.‏ قُلْتُ فَأَيْنَ صَلَّى الْعَصْرَ يَوْمَ النَّفْرِ قَالَ بِالأَبْطَحِ ثُمَّ قَالَ افْعَلْ كَمَا يَفْعَلُ أُمَرَاؤُكَ
