[Machine] Narrated Thabit: Anas said, "I do not see anything in you today that I used to see in you when I was in the company of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , except for your saying: 'La ilaha illallah (There is no god but Allah).' He said, 'I said, 'O Abu Hamza (Anas), what about the Salah (prayer)?' He said, 'You have performed Salah when the sun has set (i.e., after the evening prayer time). Was that the time of the Messenger of Allah's ﷺ Salah?' He said, 'Verily, the best times for a worker from your time no now is this time, except for a time with a Prophet.'"
