Dhu Mikhbar al-Habashi, who used to serve the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم, reported a version of the previous tradition. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم performed ablution in such a way that there is no mud on the earth. He then commanded Bilal (to call for prayer). He called for prayer. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم stood and offered two rak'ahs of prayer unhurriedly. This is narrated by Hajjaj on the authority of Yazid bin Sulaih from Dhu Mikhbar from a person of al-Habashah (Ethiopia). Ubaid (a narrator) said: Yazid bin Salih (instead of Yazid bin Sulaih).
