[Machine] On the authority of Abu Sadakah, the servant of Anas, Shu'bah praised him and said, "I asked Anas about the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he said, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray Dhuhr when the sun passed its zenith, Asr between your prayer times (Dhuhr and Maghrib), Maghrib when the sun set, Isha' when the darkness disappeared, and Fajr when the dawn broke, until the true light appeared.'"  

أحمد:١٢٧٢٣ – حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ حَدَّثَنِي شُعْبَةُ

عَنْ أَبِي صَدَقَةَ مَوْلَى أَنَسٍ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ شُعْبَةُ خَيْرًا قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَنَسًا عَنْ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺيُصَلِّي الظُّهْرَ إِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَالْعَصْرَ بَيْنَ صَلَاتَيْكُمْ هَاتَيْنِ وَالْمَغْرِبَ إِذَا غَرَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَالْعِشَاءَ إِذَا غَابَ الشَّفَقُ وَالصُّبْحَ إِذَا طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ إِلَى أَنْ يَنْفَسِحَ الْبَصَرُ
