أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَلاَّمٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ الأَزْرَقُ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ رُفَيْعٍ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ فَقُلْتُ أَخْبِرْنِي بِشَىْءٍ، عَقَلْتَهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَيْنَ صَلَّى الظُّهْرَ يَوْمَ التَّرْوِيَةِ قَالَ بِمِنًى . فَقُلْتُ أَيْنَ صَلَّى الْعَصْرَ يَوْمَ النَّفْرِ قَالَ بِالأَبْطَحِ .

Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 2997
This hadith records a question asked to Anas bin Malik about what he learned from the Messenger of Allah. Abdul-Aziz bin Rafi asked him where the Prophet prayed Zuhr on the day of At-Tarwiyah. Anas answered: in Mina. He then asked where the Prophet prayed Asr on the day of An-Nafr. Anas answered: in Al-Abtah. The core topic is prayer locations in Hajj. The narration is very focused and does not discuss the full schedule of Hajj prayers. It simply preserves two locations connected to two specific days: Zuhr on At-Tarwiyah in Mina, and Asr on An-Nafr in Al-Abtah.
What we learn from this hadith
- Anas reported that the Prophet prayed Zuhr on At-Tarwiyah in Mina.
