ahmad:12219Yazīd b. Hārūn > Ḥumaydʿan Anas

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ was asked by a man about the timing of the Fajr prayer. So, he instructed Bilal to call the Adhan (the Muslim call to prayer) when dawn broke. Then, he stood up and prayed. When morning came, he delayed it until it was light, then he commanded him to establish the prayer and he prayed. Then, he called the man and said, 'The time between this and that is a specific time.'"  

أحمد:١٢٢١٩حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌعَنْ أَنَسٍ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَنْ وَقْتِ صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ فَأَمَرَ بِلَالًا فَأَذَّنَ حِينَ طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ ثُمَّ أَقَامَ فَصَلَّى فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ الْغَدِ أَخَّرَ حَتَّى أَسْفَرَ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُقِيمَ فَصَلَّى ثُمَّ دَعَا الرَّجُلَ فَقَالَ مَا بَيْنَ هَذَا وَهَذَا وَقْتٌ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about the timing of the Fajr prayer. He ordered Bilal to call for the prayer when dawn broke and he performed the prayer.

[Machine] A man asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about the time of the Fajr prayer, so he commanded Bilal to give the call to prayer when the dawn appeared, and then he established the prayer. When it was the next day, he delayed it until it was bright, then he commanded him to establish it, so he established the prayer. Then, he called the man and said, "Did you witness the prayer yesterday and today?" The man said, "Yes." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The time between this and this is a singular time, and it is narrated to us in the narration of Buraydah ibn al-Husayb from the Prophet ﷺ, and it is an authentic hadith."
