[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Islam is built upon five pillars - testifying that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, establishing prayer, giving zakat, performing Hajj, and fasting in Ramadan.  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ بُنِيَ الْإِسْلَامُ عَلَى خَمْسٍ شَهَادَةِ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَإِقَامِ الصَّلَاةِ وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ وَالْحَجِّ وَصَوْمِ رَمَضَانَ  

“Whoever knows that prayer is an obligatory duty will enter Paradise.ʿ (Using translation from Aḥmad 423)   

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ عَلِمَ أَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ حَقٌّ وَاجِبٌ أَوْ مَكْتُوبٌ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] Regarding the standing (in prayer) of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , she (Aisha) said, "Didn't you read, O Mu'adhah, 'O you who wraps himself [in clothing]'?" I said, "Yes." She said, "Verily, Allah required the standing (in prayer) at the beginning of this Surah." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions stood (in prayer) until their feet swelled and Allah held the end of the Surah for twelve months in the sky. Then, Allah, the Exalted, revealed the concession in the end of the Surah, so the standing (in prayer) at night became voluntary after an obligatory prayer."  

عَنْ قِيَامِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَتْ أَلَسْتَ تَقْرَأُ يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُزَّمِّلُ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ فَقَالَتْ فَإِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى افْتَرَضَ الْقِيَامَ فِي أَوَّلِ هَذِهِ السُّورَةِ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ حَوْلًا حَتَّى انْتَفَخَتْ أَقْدَامُهُمْ وَأَمْسَكَ اللهُ خَاتِمَتَهَا اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ شَهْرًا فِي السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ أَنْزَلَ اللهُ تَعَالَى التَّخْفِيفَ فِي آخِرِ السُّورَةِ فَصَارَ قِيَامُ اللَّيْلِ تَطَوُّعًا بَعْدَ فَرِيضَةٍ  

[Machine] "Abdullah ibn Umar used to say, 'The tilt of the sun is its inclination.'"  

أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ كَانَ يَقُولُ دُلُوكُ الشَّمْسِ مَيْلُهَا  

[Machine] Abdullah ibn Abbas used to say, "The sinking of the sun when it sets, and the coming together of the night and its darkness."  

أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ كَانَ يَقُولُ دُلُوكُ الشَّمْسِ إِذَا فَاءَ الْفَيْءُ وَغَسَقُ اللَّيْلِ اجْتِمَاعُ اللَّيْلِ وَظُلْمَتُهُ  

[Machine] In His saying {To mark the setting of the sun} [Surah Al-Isra (17:78)], He said: When the sun sets from the horizon of the sky from the time of Dhuhr prayer until the beginning of the night, it is known as the time of Maghrib prayer.  

فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {لِدُلُوكِ الشَّمْسِ} [الإسراء 78] قَالَ إِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَنْ بَطْنِ السَّمَاءِ لِصَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ إِلَى غَسَقِ اللَّيْلِ قَالَ بُدُوُّ اللَّيْلِ صَلَاةُ الْمَغْرِبِ  

Abu Huraira said, "I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'The reward of a prayer in congregation is twenty five times greater than that of a prayer offered by a person alone. The angels of the night and the angels of the day gather at the time of Fajr prayer.' " Abu Huraira then added, "Recite the Holy Book if you wish, for "Indeed, the recitation of the Qur'an in the early dawn (Fajr prayer) is ever witnessed." (17:78). (Using translation from Bukhārī 648)   

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ تَفْضُلُ صَلَاةُ الْجَمِيعِ صَلَاةَ أَحَدِكُمْ وَحْدَهُ بِخَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ جُزْءًا وَتَجْتَمِعُ مَلَائِكَةُ اللَّيْلِ وَمَلَائِكَةُ النَّهَارِ فِي صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فَاقْرَؤَا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ {وَقُرْآنَ الْفَجْرِ إِنَّ قُرْآنَ الْفَجْرِ كَانَ مَشْهُودًا} [الإسراء 78]  

[Machine] I heard Jarir bin Abdullah saying, "We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he looked at the moon on the night of the full moon and said, 'You will certainly see your Lord just as you see this moon. You will not be hurt in seeing Him. If you are able, do not miss performing the prayers before sunrise and before sunset.' Isma'il said, 'You should not neglect the prayers before sunrise and before sunset, meaning the Asr and Fajr prayers.' Then Jarir recited the verse: 'So exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High' before sunrise and before sunset."  

سَمِعْتُ جَرِيرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِذْ نَظَرَ إِلَى الْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ فقَالَ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَرَوْنَ رَبَّكُمْ كَمَا تَرَوْنَ هَذَا الْقَمَرَ لَا تُضَامُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَتِهِ فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَنْ لَا تُغْلَبُوا عَلَى صَلَاةٍ قَالَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ يَقُولُ لَا تَفُوتَنَّكُمْ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ وَقَبْلَ غُرُوبِهَا يَعْنِي الْعَصْرَ وَالْفَجْرَ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ جَرِيرٌ فَسَبَّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ وَقَبْلَ غُرُوبِهَا  

[Machine] "The prayer of Maghrib {and when you become morning} [Ar-Rum: 17]

The prayer of Fajr {and to Him belongs all praise in the heavens and the earth and in the evening}

The prayer of Asr {and when you appear} [Ar-Rum: 18]

The prayer of Dhuhr and recite {and after the prayer of Isha, three times of uncovering for you} [An-Nur: 58]"  

صَلَاةُ الْمَغْرِبِ {وَحِينَ تُصْبِحُونَ} [الروم 17] صَلَاةُ الْفَجْرِ {وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ فِي السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَعَشِيًّا} صَلَاةُ الْعَصْرِ {وَحِينَ تُظْهِرُونَ} [الروم 18] صَلَاةُ الظُّهْرِ وَقَرَأَ {وَمِنْ بَعْدِ صَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ ثَلَاثُ عَوْرَاتٍ لَكُمْ} [النور 58]  

[Machine] About Al-Hasan's saying, "Glorified be Allah when you sleep" [Surah Ar-Rum 17], he said that the prayer for Maghrib and Isha is "when you become evening" [Surah Ar-Rum 17]. The prayer for Fajr is "and for Him is praise in the heavens and the earth at nightfall" [Surah Ar-Rum 17]. Al-Asr is "when you appear" [Surah Ar-Rum 18]. Adh-Dhuhr is "and for Him is praise in the heavens and the earth at noon" 1685. He said that Abd Allah bin Wahb informed us about Sa'id, who narrated the same as him 1686. Abd Allah bin Wahb also informed us that Amru informed us about Al-Hasan's saying, "Establish prayer at the two ends of the day" [Surah Hud 114]. He said that the prayer for Fajr is one end, and the other end is Dhuhr and Asr. "And [offer] the portion of the night" [Surah Hud 114] refers to Maghrib and Isha.  

عَنِ الْحَسَنِ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {فَسُبْحَانَ اللهِ حِينَ تُمْسُونَ} [الروم 17] قَالَ صَلَاةُ الْمَغْرِبِ وَالْعِشَاءِ {وَحِينَ تُصْبِحُونَ} [الروم 17] صَلَاةُ الْغَدَاةِ {وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ فِي السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَعَشِيًّا} قَالَ الْعَصْرُ {وَحِينَ تُظْهِرُونَ} [الروم 18] قَالَ الظُّهْرُ 1685 قَالَ وَأَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ مِثْلَهُ 1686 قَالَ وَأَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ أنا عَمْرٌو عَنِ الْحَسَنِ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ} [هود 114] قَالَ صَلَاةُ الْفَجْرِ وَالطَّرَفُ الْآخَرُ الظُّهْرُ وَالْعَصْرُ {وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ} [هود 114] الْمَغْرِبُ وَالْعِشَاءُ  

[Machine] About Qatadah's saying in the verse "Establish prayer at the two ends of the day" [Hud 114], he said that it refers to the Fajr prayer and the Asr prayer. And in the phrase "and [during] parts of the night" [Hud 114], he said it refers to the Maghrib prayer and the Isha prayer.  

عَنْ قَتَادَةَ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ} [هود 114] قَالَ صَلَاةُ الصُّبْحِ وَصَلَاةُ الْعَصْرِ {وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ} [هود 114] قَالَ الْمَغْرِبُ وَالْعِشَاءُ  

[Machine] The start of prayer was two units in the morning and two units in the evening.  

كَانَ بَدْءُ الصَّلَاةِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ بِالْغَدَاةِ وَرَكْعَتَيْنِ بِالْعَشِيِّ  

[Machine] About the Prophet ﷺ and mentioned the story of the Ascension to the heavens, in which he said, "I was enjoined to perform fifty prayers every day. (Or he said) I was commanded to perform fifty prayers every day. The doubt of Sa'id overwhelmed me until I came to Moses and he asked me, 'What have you been commanded to do?' So I said, 'I have been commanded to perform fifty prayers every day.' He said, 'Your followers cannot bear it. So return to your Lord and ask for a reduction for your nation.' So I returned until I reached my Lord and asked for a reduction for my nation. He reduced it by five prayers. I returned to Moses and informed him, and he said, 'Your followers cannot bear it. So return to your Lord and ask for a reduction.' I kept going back and forth between my Lord and Moses, each time my Lord reduced the prayers by five, until there remained only five prayers. Then Moses told me to return to my Lord, so I said, 'I have returned to my Lord until I feel too ashamed. But I accept and submit.' He said, 'You were called and you were answered, O Sa'id. I have indeed fulfilled my obligations and reduced them for my slaves, and for every good deed there is a reward of ten like it.' This Hadith is mentioned in Sahihayn from the Hadith of Sa'id bin Abi Aruba."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ قِصَّةَ الْمِعْرَاجِ وَفِيهَا قَالَ وَفُرِضَتْ عَلَيَّ خَمْسُونَ صَلَاةً كُلَّ يَوْمٍ أَوْ قَالَ أُمِرْتُ بِخَمْسِينَ صَلَاةٍ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ الشَّكُّ مِنْ سَعِيدٍ فَجِئْتُ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ عَلَى مُوسَى فَقَالَ لِي بِمَا أُمِرْتَ؟ فَقُلْتُ أُمِرْتُ بِخَمْسِينَ صَلَاةً كُلَّ يَوْمٍ قَالَ إِنِّي قَدْ بَلَوْتُ النَّاسَ قَبْلَكَ وَعَالَجْتُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَشَدَّ الْمُعَالَجَةِ وَإِنَّ أُمَّتَكَ لَا يُطِيقُونَ ذَلِكَ فَارْجِعْ إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَسَلْهُ التَّخْفِيفَ لِأُمَّتِكَ فَرَجَعْتُ فَحَطَّ عَنِّي خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ فَمَا زِلْتُ أَخْتَلِفُ بَيْنَ رَبِّي وَبَيْنَ مُوسَى كُلَّمَا أَتَيْتُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ لِي مِثْلَ مَقَالَتِهِ حَتَّى رَجَعْتُ بِخَمْسِ صَلَوَاتٍ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ فَلَمَّا أَتَيْتُ عَلَى مُوسَى قَالَ لِي بِمَا أُمِرْتُ؟ قُلْتُ بِخَمْسِ صَلَوَاتٍ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ قَالَ إِنِّي بَلَوْتُ النَّاسَ قَبْلَكَ وَعَالَجْتُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَشَدَّ الْمُعَالَجَةِ وَإِنَّ أُمَّتَكَ لَا يُطِيقُونَ ذَلِكَ فَارْجِعْ إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَسَلْهُ التَّخْفِيفَ لِأُمَّتِكَ قُلْتُ لَقَدْ رَجَعْتُ إِلَى رَبِّي حَتَّى اسْتَحْيَيْتُ وَلَكِنْ أَرْضَى وَأُسَلِّمُ قَالَ فَنُودِيتُ أَوْ نَادَانِي مُنَادٍ الشَّكُّ مِنْ سَعِيدٍ أَنْ قَدْ أَمْضَيْتُ فَرِيضَتِي وَخَفَّفْتُ عَنْ عِبَادِي وَجَعَلْتُ بِكُلِّ حَسَنَةٍ عَشْرَ أَمْثَالِهَا مُخَرَّجٌ فِي الصَّحِيحَيْنِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ  

[Machine] He told us about the night of the Prophet's ﷺ ascension from the Kaaba mosque. He mentioned the hadith in which the Prophet was inspired concerning fifty prayers for his nation every day and night. Then he descended until he reached Moses, who detained him and said, "O Muhammad, what has your Lord instructed you?" He replied, "He has instructed me to have fifty prayers for my nation every day and night." Moses said, "Your nation is not able to do this, so go back and ask your Lord to lighten the burden on you and them." So the Prophet turned to Gabriel as if seeking his advice on this matter, and Gabriel gestured to him indicating that if he wished, he could do it. So Gabriel said to the Lord, "O Lord, lighten our burden, for my nation cannot bear this." Therefore, ten prayers were removed from the prescribed fifty. Then the Prophet returned to Moses, who detained him and continued to return him to his Lord until it became five prayers. Moses said, "By Allah, I have tried with the Children of Israel to practice less than these five and they neglected and abandoned them. Your nation is weaker in bodies, hearts, eyes, and ears, so go back and ask your Lord to lighten the burden on you." So the Prophet turned to Gabriel to indicate to him, and Gabriel raised his hand at the fifth prayer. He said, "O Lord, indeed my nation is weak in their bodies, hearts, eyes, and ears, so lighten our burden." Then the Lord said, "Indeed, the decree with Me will not change. It is as it was written for you in the mother of the Book. For every good deed, you will have ten times its reward. It is fifty in the mother of the Book, but it is five upon you." And he mentioned the hadith.  

يُحَدِّثُنَا عَنْ لَيْلَةِ أُسْرِيَ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ مَسْجِدِ الْكَعْبَةَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِيهِ فَأَوْحَى إِلَيْهِ مَا شَاءَ فِيمَا أَوْحَى خَمْسِينَ صَلَاةً عَلَى أُمَّتِهِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ ثُمَّ هَبَطَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ مُوسَى فَاحْتَبَسَهُ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ مَا عَهِدَ إِلَيْكَ رَبُّكَ؟ قَالَ عَهِدَ إِلِيَّ خَمْسِينَ صَلَاةً عَلَى أُمَّتِي كُلَّ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ قَالَ فَإِنَّ أُمَّتَكَ لَا تَسْتَطِيعُ فَارْجِعْ فَلْيُخَفِّفْ عَنْكَ وَعَنْهُمْ فَالْتَفَتَ إِلِيَّ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ كَأَنَّهُ يَسْتَشِيرُهُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ نَعَمْ إِنْ شِئْتَ فَعَلَا بِهِ جِبْرِيلُ فَقَالَ يَا رَبِّ خَفِّفْ عَنَّا فَإِنَّ أُمَّتِي لَا تَسْتَطِيعُ هَذَا فَوَضَعَ عَنْهُ عَشْرَ صَلَوَاتٍ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى مُوسَى فَاحْتَبَسَهُ وَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَرُدُّهُ مُوسَى إِلَى رَبِّهِ حَتَّى صَارَ إِلَى خَمْسِ صَلَوَاتٍ ثُمَّ احْتَبَسَهُ عِنْدَ الْخَامِسَةِ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قَدْ وَاللهِ رَاوَدْتُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى أَدْنَى مِنْ هَذِهِ الْخَمْسِ فَضَيَّعُوهُ وَتَرَكُوهُ وَأُمَّتُكَ أَضْعَفُ أَجْسَادًا وَقُلُوبًا وَأَبْصَارًا وَأَسْمَاعًا فَارْجِعْ فَلْيُخَفِّفْ عَنْكَ رَبُّكَ فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَى جِبْرِيلَ لِيُشِيرَ عَلَيْهِ فَلَا يَكْرَهُ ذَلِكَ جِبْرِيلُ فَرَفَعَهُ عِنْدَ الْخَامِسَةِ فَقَالَ يَا رَبِّ إِنَّ أُمَّتِي ضِعَافٌ أَجْسَادُهُمْ وَقُلُوبُهُمْ وَأَسْمَاعُهُمْ وَأَبْصَارُهُمْ فَخَفِّفْ عَنَّا فَقَالَ إِنِّي لَا يُبَدَّلُ الْقَوْلُ لَدِيَّ هِيَ كَمَا كُتِبَتْ عَلَيْكُمْ فِي أُمِّ الْكِتَابِ وَلَكَ بِكُلِّ حَسَنَةٍ عَشْرُ أَمْثَالِهَا هِيَ خَمْسُونَ فِي أُمِّ الْكِتَابِ وَهِيَ خَمْسٌ عَلَيْكَ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ  

A man from among the people of Najd with disheveled hair came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The humming sound of his voice could be heard but what he was saying could not be understood. He came closer and it was then known that he was asking about Islam. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Five times of prayer each day and night: He asked: Must I observe any more than them? He replied: No, unless you do it voluntarily. He (Talhah) said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ mentioned fasting during the month of Ramadan. He asked: Must I observe anything else? He replied: No, unless you do it voluntarily. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ mentioned Zakat to him. He asked: Must I pay anything else? He replied: No, unless you do it voluntarily. The man then turned away saying: I swear by Allah, I shall not add anything to this or fall short of it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The man will be successful if he speaks truth. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 391)   

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ طَلْحَةَ بْنَ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ يَقُولُ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ أَهْلِ نَجْدٍ ثَائِرَ الرَّأْسِ نَسْمَعُ دَوِيَّ صَوْتِهِ وَلَا نَفْقَهُ مَا يَقُولُ حَتَّى دَنَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَإِذَا هُوَ يَسْأَلُ عَنِ الْإِسْلَامِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَمْسُ صَلَوَاتٍ فِي الْيَوْمِ وَاللَّيْلَةِ فَقَالَ هَلْ عَلَيَّ غَيْرُهُنَّ؟ قَالَ لَا إِلَّا أَنْ تَطَوَّعَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَصِيَامُ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ قَالَ هَلْ عَلَيَّ غَيْرُهُ؟ قَالَ لَا إِلَّا أَنْ تَطَوَّعَ قَالَ وَذَكَرَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الزَّكَاةَ قَالَ هَلْ عَلَيَّ غَيْرُهَا؟ قَالَ لَا إِلَّا أَنْ تَطَوَّعَ فَأَدْبَرَ الرَّجُلُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ وَاللهِ لَا أَزِيدُ عَلَى هَذَاِ وَلَا أَنْقُصُ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَفْلَحَ إِنْ صَدَقَ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ ؓ فِي حَدِيثِهِ وَذَكَرَ الصَّدَقَةَ فَقَالَ هَلْ عَلَيَّ غَيْرُهَا مُخَرَّجٌ فِي الصَّحِيحَيْنِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ مَالِكٍ  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: "Allah has prescribed five prayers upon His slaves. Whoever fulfills them and does not neglect them, Allah will have a covenant with him to forgive him and enter him into Paradise. But whoever does not fulfill them and disrespects them, then he does not have a covenant with Allah. If Allah wills, He may punish him and if He wills, He may forgive him." And Malik narrated from Yahya bin Sa'id in this chain of narration that there was a man from the Banu Kinanah named Al-Mukhddiji.  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ خَمْسُ صَلَوَاتٍ كَتَبَهُنَّ اللهُ ﷻ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ فَمَنْ وَافَى بِهِنَّ وَلَمْ يُضَيِّعْهُنَّ كَانَ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللهِ عَهْدٌ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ لَهُ وَأَنْ يُدْخِلَهُ الْجَنَّةَ وَمَنْ لَمْ يُوَافِ بِهِنَّ اسْتِخْفَافًا بِحَقِّهِنَّ فَلَيْسَ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللهِ عَهْدٌ إِنْ شَاءَ عَذَّبَهُ وَإِنْ شَاءَ غَفَرَ لَهُ وَقَالَ مَالِكٌ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ فِي هَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي كِنَانَةَ يُدْعَى الْمُخْدَجِيَّ  

He heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: just see, can anything of his filthiness remain (on the body of) any one of you if there were a river at his door in which he washed himself five times daily? They, said: Nothing of his filthiness will remain (on his body). He said: That is like the five prayers by which Allah obliterates sins. (Using translation from Muslim 667)   

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ أَرَأَيْتُمْ لَوْ أَنَّ نَهْرًا بِبَابِ أَحَدِكُمْ يَغْتَسِلُ مِنْهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ مَا تَقُولُونَ يَبْقَى مِنْ دَرَنِهِ؟ قَالُوا لَا يُبْقِي مِنْ دَرَنِهِ شَيْئًا قَالَ فَذَلِكَ مِثْلُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ يَمْحُو اللهُ بِهِنَّ الْخَطَايَا  

[Machine] Jibril ﷺ came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Arise and pray, for this is the time when the sun declines." So he got up and prayed four units of Duhr prayer. Then Jibril came to him when his shadow was equal to his height and said, "Arise and pray." So he prayed four units of Asr prayer. Then Jibril came to him when the sun had set and said, "Arise and pray." So he prayed three units of Maghrib prayer. Then Jibril came to him when the twilight had faded and said, "Arise and pray." So he prayed four units of Isha prayer. Then Jibril came to him when the dawn began to break and said, "Arise and pray." So he prayed two units of Fajr prayer. Then he came to him on the following day at Dhuhr time when the shadow of everything was equal to its height and said, "Arise and pray." So he prayed four units of Duhr prayer. Then Jibril came to him when his shadow was equal to his height and said, "Arise and pray." So he prayed four units of Asr prayer. Then he came to him at the previous day's Maghrib time when the sun had set and said, "Arise and pray." So he prayed three units of Maghrib prayer. Then he came to him after the twilight had faded and it was dark and said, "Arise and pray." So he prayed four units of Isha prayer. Then he came to him when the dawn was approaching and said, "Arise and pray." So he prayed two units of Fajr prayer. Then he said, "There is a prayer that Abu Bakr ibn Muhammad ibn Amr ibn Hazm did not hear from Abu Mas'ud Al-Ansari, but it has been conveyed to him. It has also been narrated in another Mursal Hadith."  

أَتَى جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ وَذَلِكَ دُلُوكَ الشَّمْسِ حِينَ مَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ أَرْبَعًا ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ حِينَ كَانَ ظِلُّهُ مِثْلَهُ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ فَصَلَّى الْعَصْرَ أَرْبَعًا ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ حِينَ غَرَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ فَصَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ حِينَ غَابَ الشَّفَقُ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ فَصَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ الْآخِرَةَ أَرْبَعًا ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ حِينَ بَرَقَ الْفَجْرُ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ فَصَلَّى الصُّبْحَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ مِنَ الْغَدِ فِي الظُّهْرِ حِينَ صَارَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَهُ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ أَرْبَعًا ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ حِينَ صَارَ ظِلُّهُ مِثْلَيْهِ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ فَصَلَّى الْعَصْرَ أَرْبَعًا ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الْوَقْتَ بِالْأَمْسِ حِينَ غَرَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ فَصَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ بَعْدَ أَنْ غَابَ الشَّفَقُ وَأَظْلَمَ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ فَصَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ الْآخِرَةَ أَرْبَعًا ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ حِينَ أَسْفَرَ الْفَجْرُ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ فَصَلَّى الصُّبْحَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ صَلَاةٌ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ لَمْ يَسْمَعْهُ مِنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ وَإِنَّمَا هُوَ بَلَاغٌ بَلَغَهُ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ ذَلِكَ فِي حَدِيثٍ آخَرَ مُرْسَلٍ  

[Machine] "When the Prophet ﷺ brought them (the prayers) to his people, he secluded himself from them until the sun set from the sky. Then, the congregational prayer was called upon them and the people were frightened by it, so they gathered and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed four units of prayer with them, without reciting aloud. The people followed the Prophet of Allah ﷺ , and he followed Jibril ﷺ . When the sun moved from the meridian to the side of the sky, while it was pure white, the congregational prayer was called upon them and the people were frightened by it, so they gathered and the Prophet ﷺ prayed four units of prayer with them, without reciting aloud. The people followed the Prophet of Allah ﷺ , and he followed Jibril ﷺ . When the sun set, the congregational prayer was called upon them and they gathered, so the Prophet of Allah ﷺ prayed three units of prayer with them, reciting aloud in the first two units, and not reciting aloud in the third unit. The people followed the Prophet of Allah ﷺ , and he followed Jibril ﷺ .

It is mentioned in this Hadith and what is narrated in its meaning is evidence that this occurred in Makkah after the Mi'raj (Ascension), and that the five daily prayers were obligatory at that time in their prescribed numbers. This is also confirmed by the narration of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), in contradiction to what was mentioned."  

ﷺ لَمَّا جَاءَ بِهِنَّ إِلَى قَوْمِهِ خَلَا عَنْهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَنْ بَطْنِ السَّمَاءِ نُودِيَ فِيهِمُ الصَّلَاةُ جَامِعَةٌ قَالَ فَفَزِعَ الْقَوْمُ لِذَلِكَ فَاجْتَمَعُوا فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ لَا يَقْرَأُ فِيهِنَّ عَلَانِيَةً يَقْتَدِي النَّاسُ بِنَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ وَيَقْتَدِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِجِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ حَتَّى إِذَا تَصَوَّبَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَنْ بَطْنِ السَّمَاءِ وَهِيَ بَيْضَاءُ نَقِيَّةٌ نُودِيَ فِيهِمْ بِالصَّلَاةِ جَامِعَةٌ فَفَزِعَ الْقَوْمُ لِذَلِكَ فَاجْتَمَعُوا فَصَلَّى بِهِمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ لَا يَقْرَأُ فِيهِنَّ عَلَانِيَةً يَقْتَدِي النَّاسُ بِنَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ وَيَقْتَدِي نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ بِجِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ حَتَّى إِذَا غَرَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ نُودِيَ فِيهِمْ بِالصَّلَاةِ جَامِعَةٌ فَاجْتَمَعُوا فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثَ رَكَعَاتٍ يَقْرَأُ فِي الْأُولَيَيْنِ وَلَا يَقْرَأُ فِي الْوَاحِدَةِ يَعْنِي عَلَانِيَةً يَقْتَدِي النَّاسُ بِنَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ وَيَقْتَدِي نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ بِجِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ حَتَّى إِذَا غَابَ الشَّفَقُ نُودِيَ فِيهِمْ بِالصَّلَاةِ جَامِعَةً فَاجْتَمَعُوا فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ يَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ عَلَانِيَةً وَلَا يَقْرَأُ فِي الثِّنْتَيْنِ يَقْتَدِي النَّاسُ بِنَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ وَيَقْتَدِي نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ بِجِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ قَالَ فَبَاتَ الْقَوْمُ وَهُمْ لَا يَدْرُونَ أَيُزَادُونَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ أَمْ لَا حَتَّى إِذَا طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ نُودِيَ فِيهِمُ الصَّلَاةُ جَامِعَةٌ فَاجْتَمَعُوا فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ رَكْعَتَيْنِ يُطِيلُ فِيهِمَا الْقِرَاءَةَ يَقْتَدِي النَّاسُ بِنَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ وَيَقْتَدِي نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ بِجِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فَفِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ وَمَا رُوِيَ فِي مَعْنَاهُ دَلِيلٌ عَلَى أَنَّ ذَلِكَ كَانَ بِمَكَّةَ بَعْدَ الْمِعْرَاجِ وَأَنَّ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسَ فَرْضٌ حِينَئِذٍ بِأَعْدَادِهِنَّ وَقَدْ ثَبَتَ ذَلِكَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ خِلَافُ ذَلِكَ  

[Machine] The prayer was initially prescribed for the Prophet ﷺ as two units of prayer in Makkah. Then, when he migrated to Madinah, it was prescribed as four units of prayer, and the prayer of travel was established as two units of prayer.  

فُرِضَتِ الصَّلَاةُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمَكَّةَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ فُرِضَتْ أَرْبَعًا وَأُقِرَّتْ صَلَاةُ السَّفَرِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ  

[Machine] Al-Zuhri: How was the prayer of the Prophet ﷺ in Mecca before he migrated to Medina? He said: Urwah ibn Az-Zubair informed me that Aisha said, "Allah first ordained the prayer as two units, then completed it in Al-Hudaybiyah. The prayer of travel was established after the first obligation, and it was narrated from 'Amir Ash-Sha'bi from Masruq from Aisha."  

الزُّهْرِيُّ كَيْفَ كَانَتْ صَلَاةُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمَكَّةَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُهَاجِرَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ؟ فَقَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ فَرَضَ اللهُ الصَّلَاةَ أَوَّلَ مَا فَرَضَهَا رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ أَتَمَّهَا فِي الْحَضَرِ وَأُقِرَّتْ صَلَاةُ السَّفَرِ عَلَى الْفَرِيضَةِ الْأُولَى وَرُوِيَ عَنْ عَامِرٍ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ  

[Machine] The first prayer that was made obligatory was two units (rak'ahs). When the Prophet ﷺ arrived in Madinah and settled down, he added two more units of prayer, excluding the Maghrib prayer, because it is odd in number. As for the Fajr prayer, he added more units due to its lengthy recitation. It is said that when he traveled, he would perform his first prayer.  

إِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَا فُرِضَتِ الصَّلَاةُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ وَاطْمَأَنَّ زَادَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ غَيْرَ الْمَغْرِبِ لِأَنَّهَا وِتْرٌ وَصَلَاةُ الْغَدَاةِ لِطُولِ قِرَاءَتِهَا قَالَتْ وَكَانَ إِذَا سَافَرَ صَلَّى صَلَاتَهُ الْأُولَى  

[Machine] That Gabriel came down and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed, then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed, then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed, then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed, then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed, then he said, "Am I ordered with this?" Omar said to Urwa, "Look what you are narrating, O Urwa, or is it Gabriel who established the prayer for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ at the time of prayer?" Urwa said, "Bashir bin Abi Mas'ood narrated it from his father." Urwa said, "Aisha, the prophet's wife ﷺ, told me that the prophet ﷺ used to pray Asr while the sun was still in her room before it appeared."  

أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ نَزَلَ فَصَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ بِهَذَا أُمِرْتُ؟ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ لِعُرْوَةَ انْظُرْ مَا تُحَدِّثُ يَا عُرْوَةُ أَوْ أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ هُوَ أَقَامَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَقْتَ الصَّلَاةِ فَقَالَ عُرْوَةُ كَذَلِكَ كَانَ بَشِيرُ بْنُ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ عُرْوَةُ وَلَقَدْ حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ زَوْجُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ وَالشَّمْسُ فِي حُجْرَتِهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَظْهَرَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Jibreel (Gabriel) came to me and granted me safety, so I prayed with him. Then he came again and granted me safety, so I prayed with him. And then he came a third time and granted me safety, so I prayed with him, until he counted five prayers." Umar ibn Abdul Aziz said, "Fear Allah and consider what you are saying, O Urwah." Urwah said, "Bashir ibn Abi Mas'ud informed me from his father that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Jibreel came to me and granted me safety, so I prayed with him. Then he came again and granted me safety, so I prayed with him, until he counted five prayers. And so it was.'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نَزَلَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فَأَمَّنَا فَصَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ فَأَمَّنَا فَصَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ فَأَمَّنَا فَصَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ حَتَّى عَدَّ خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ اتَّقِ اللهَ وَانْظُرْ مَا تَقُولُ يَا عُرْوَةُ فَقَالَ عُرْوَةُ أَخْبَرَنِي بَشِيرُ بْنُ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ نَزَلَ جِبْرِيلُ فَأَمَّنَا فَصَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ فَأَمَّنَا فَصَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ حَتَّى عَدَّ خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ وَكَذَلِكَ  

'Umar b. 'Abdul 'Aziz was sitting on the pulpit and he somewhat postponed the afternoon prayer. 'Urwah b. al-Zubair said to him: "Gabriel informed Muhammed ﷺ of the time of prayer". So 'Umar said to him: "Be sure of what you are saying". 'Urwah then replied: "I heard Bashir b. Abu Mas'ud say that he heard Abu Mas'ud al-Ansari say that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'Gabriel came down and informed me of the time of prayer, and I prayed along with him, then prayed along with him, then I prayed along with him, then I prayed along with him, then I prayed along with him, reckoning with his fingers five times of the prayer.' I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ offering the Duhr prayer when the sun had passed the meridian. Sometimes he would delay it when it was sever heat ; and I witnessed that he prayer the 'Asr prayer when the sun was high and bright before the yellowness had overcome it; then a man could go off after the prayer and reach Dhu'l-Hulaifah before the sunset, and he would pray Maghrib when the sun had set ; and he would pray the 'Isha prayer when darkness prevailed over the horizon; sometime he would delay it until the people assembled; and once he prayer the fair prayer in the darkness of dawn and at another time he prayed it when it became fairly light; but later on he continued to pray in the darkness of dawn until his death; he never prayed it again in the light of the dawn." Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been transmitted from al-Zuhri by Ma'mar, Malik, Ibn 'Uyainah, Shu'aib b. Abi Hamzah, and al-Laith b. Sa'd and others; but they did not mention the time in which he (the Prophet) had prayer, nor did they explain it. And similarly it has been narrated by Hisham b. 'Urwah and Habib b. Abu Mazruq from 'Urwah like the report of Ma'mar and his companions. But Habib did not make a mention of Bashir. And Wahb b. Kaisan reported on the authority of Jabir from the Prophet ﷺ the time of the Maghrib prayer. He said: "Next day he (Gabriel) came to him at the time of the Maghrib prayer when the sun had already set. (He came both days) at the same time." Abu Dawud said: Similarly, this tradition has been transmitted by Abu Hurairah from the Prophet ﷺ. He said: "Then he (Gabriel) led me in the sunset prayer next day at the same time." Similarly, this tradition has been narrated through a different chain by 'Abd Allah b. 'Amr b. al-'As, through a chain from Hassan b. 'Atiyyah, from 'Amr b. Shu'aib, from his father, on the authority from the Prophet ﷺ. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 394)   

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ نَزَلَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فَأَخْبَرَنِي بِوَقْتِ الصَّلَاةِ فَصَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ صَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ صَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ صَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ صَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ يَحْسِبُ بِأَصَابِعِهِ خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ وَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي الظُّهْرَ حِينَ تَزُولُ الشَّمْسُ وَرُبَّمَا أَخَّرَهَا حِينَ يَشْتَدُّ الْحَرُّ وَرَأَيْتُهُ يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ وَالشَّمْسُ مُرْتَفِعَةٌ بَيْضَاءُ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَدْخُلَهَا الصُّفْرَةُ فَيَنْصَرِفُ الرَّجُلُ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ فَيَأْتِي ذَا الْحُلَيْفَةِ قَبْلَ غُرُوبِ الشَّمْسِ وَيُصَلِّي الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ تَسْقُطُ الشَّمْسُ وَيُصَلِّي الْعِشَاءَ حِينَ يَسْوَدُّ الْأُفُقُ وَرُبَّمَا أَخَّرَهَا حَتَّى يَجْتَمِعَ النَّاسُ وَصَلَّى الصُّبْحَ بِغَلَسٍ ثُمَّ صَلَّى مَرَّةً أُخْرَى فَأَسْفَرَ بِهَا ثُمَّ كَانَتْ صَلَاتُهُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بِغَلَسٍ حَتَّى مَاتَ لَمْ يَعْدُ إِلَى أَنْ يُسْفِرَ وَتَفْسِيرُ كَيْفِيَّةِ صَلَاةِ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ بِالنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي حَدِيثِ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ حَزْمٍ وَهُوَ فِي رِوَايَةِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَغَيْرِهِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "The Angel Gabriel led me in prayer twice near the House (the Kaaba). He prayed the Dhuhr prayer with me when the sun had passed its zenith, and its shade was equivalent to its own length. Then, he prayed the Asr prayer with me when the shadow of everything was equal to its length. Then, he prayed the Maghrib prayer with me when the fasting person broke their fast. Then, he prayed the Isha prayer with me when the twilight had disappeared. Then, he prayed the Fajr prayer with me when eating and drinking are prohibited for the fasting person. Then, he prayed the Dhuhr prayer with me the next day when the shadow of everything was equal to its length. Then, he prayed the Asr prayer with me when the shadow of everything was equal to its length. Then, he prayed the Maghrib prayer with me when the fasting person broke their fast. Then, he prayed the Isha prayer with me for the first third of the night. Then, he prayed the Fajr prayer with me when the dawn appeared. Then, he turned to me and said, 'O Muhammad, this is the timing of the Prophets before you, and the timing during these two timings (meaning the time between Dhuhr and Asr, and between Maghrib and Isha) is 1703.' Abu Al-Hasan Ali bin Ahmad bin Abdan informed us, Ahmad bin Ubaid As-Saffar told us, Ismail bin Ishaq told us, Ibrahim bin Hamzah Az-Zubayri told us, Abdul Aziz bin Muhammad Ad-Darawardi told us, from Abdul Rahman, who is the son of Al-Harith bin Abdullah bin Ayyash bin Abi Rabiah Al-Makhzumi, who narrated this story from Hakim mentioned it in its meaning. We have also narrated it from Jabir bin Abdullah, Abu Mas'ud Al-Ansari, Abdullah bin Umar, and Abu Hurairah, and Abu Saeed Al-Khudri, regarding the story of Gabriel leading the Prophet, ﷺ , in prayer in Makkah. It is also confirmed by Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari and Buraidah bin Al-Hasaib, and Abdullah bin Amr bin Al-As regarding the prayer timings in other than this story, and we convey its narration, if Allah wills."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَّنِي جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ مَرَّتَيْنِ عِنْدَ الْبَيْتِ فَصَلَّى بِيَ الظُّهْرَ حِينَ مَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَكَانَتْ بِقَدْرِ الشِّرَاكِ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْعَصْرَ حِينَ كَانَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَهُ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ أَفْطَرَ الصَّائِمُ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْعِشَاءَ حِينَ غَابَ الشَّفَقُ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْفَجْرَ حِينَ حَرُمَ الطَّعَامُ وَالشَّرَابُ عَلَى الصَّائِمِ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الظُّهْرَ مِنَ الْغَدِ حِينَ كَانَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَ ظِلِّهِ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْعَصْرَ حِينَ كَانَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَيْهِ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ أَفْطَرَ الصَّائِمُ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْعِشَاءَ لَثُلُثِ اللَّيْلِ الْأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْفَجْرَ فَأَسْفَرَ فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ هَذَا وَقْتُ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ وَالْوَقْتُ فِيمَا بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ الْوَقْتَيْنِ 1703 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ الزُّبَيْرِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدَّرَاوَرْدِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَهُوَ ابْنُ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَيَّاشِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ الْمَخْزُومِيِّ عَنْ حَكِيمٍ فَذَكَرَهُ بِمَعْنَاهُ وَرُوِّينَا عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ وَأَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَأَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ فِي قِصَّةِ إِمَامَةِ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِمَكَّةَ وَثَبَتَ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ وَبُرَيْدَةَ بْنِ الْحَصِيبِ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي مَوَاقِيتِ الصَّلَاةِ فِي غَيْرِ هَذِهِ الْقِصَّةِ وَنَحْنُ نَأْتِي عَلَى رِوَايَتِهَا إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ تَعَالَى  

[Machine] The inclination of the sun changes after noon.  

دُلُوكُ الشَّمْسِ مَيْلُهَا بَعْدَ نِصْفِ النَّهَارِ  

[Machine] The passage translates to: "The appearance of the sun at sunset."  

دُلُوكُ الشَّمْسِ زَوَالُهَا  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about the times of prayers. He said: The time for the morning prayer (lasts) as long as the first visible part of the rising sun does not appear and the time of the noon prayer is when the sun declines from the zenith and there is not a time for the afternoon prayer and the time for the afternoon prayer is so long as the sun does not become pale and its first visible part does not set, and the time for the evening prayer is that when the sun disappears and (it lasts) till the twilight is no more and the time for the night prayer is up to the midnight. (Using translation from Muslim 612e)   

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ وَقْتِ الصَّلَاةِ فَقَالَ وَقْتُ صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ مَا لَمْ يَطْلُعْ قَرْنُ الشَّمْسِ الْأَوَّلُ وَوَقْتُ صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ إِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَنْ بَطْنِ السَّمَاءِ مَا لَمْ يَحْضُرِ الْعَصْرُ وَوَقْتُ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ مَا لَمْ تَصْفَرَّ الشَّمْسُ وَيَسْقُطُ قَرْنُهَا الْأَوَّلُ وَوَقْتُ صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ إِذَا غَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ مَا لَمْ يَسْقُطِ الشَّفَقُ وَوَقْتُ صَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ إِلَى نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The time for the Dhuhr prayer is when the sun has passed its zenith and the shadow of a person is equal to his height, until the time of the Asr prayer." He mentioned the remainder of the hadith with its meaning.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقْتُ صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ إِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَكَانَ ظِلُّ الرَّجُلِ كَطُولِهِ مَا لَمْ يَحْضُرِ الْعَصْرُ وَذَكَرَ بَاقِيَ الْحَدِيثِ بِمَعْنَاهُ  

[Machine] The prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to be three to five units in the summer, and five to seven units in the winter. This is mentioned in the hadith of Abu Dawood and is a matter that varies in different countries and regions, and it is estimated in each region according to its known practice for determining the timing of the disappearance of sunlight.  

كَانَ قَدْرُ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الصَّيْفِ ثَلَاثَةَ أَقْدَامٍ إِلَى خَمْسَةِ أَقْدَامٍ وَفِي الشِّتَاءِ خَمْسَةَ أَقْدَامٍ إِلَى سَبْعَةِ أَقْدَامٍ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ أَبِي دَاوُدَ وَهَذَا أَمْرٌ يَخْتَلِفُ فِي الْبُلْدَانِ وَالْأَقَالِيمِ فَيُقَدَّرُ فِي كُلِّ إِقْلِيمٍ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ بِهِ بِأَمْرِ الزَّوَالِ  

[Machine] Gabriel ﷺ came down to the Prophet ﷺ in order to teach him the prayer. Therefore, he prayed the afternoon prayer when the sun had passed its zenith, then he prayed the afternoon prayer when the shadow of everything was equal to its size once, then he prayed the sunset prayer when the sun had set, then he prayed the darkness prayer which is the night prayer when the twilight disappeared, and then he prayed the morning prayer when dawn arrived. Then, he came to him the next day and delayed the afternoon prayer until its shadow was equal to its size, and delayed the afternoon prayer until its shadow was equal to its size twice, then he prayed the sunset prayer when the sun had set, then he waited for the night prayer, then he prayed the morning prayer when dawn arrived. Then, he said, "Between these two prayers, there is a prayer." Salih ibn Kaysan said, and Ata ibn Abi Rabah used to narrate from Jabir ibn Abdullah about the time of prayer similar to what Abu Mas'ood used to narrate. Salih said, and Amr ibn Dinar and Abu Zubair al-Makki used to narrate the same from Jabir ibn Abdullah al-Sulami.  

نَزَلَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِالصَّلَاةِ فَأَمَرَهُ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ حِينَ زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ ثُمَّ صَلَّى الْعَصْرَ حِينَ صَارَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ بِقَدْرِهِ مَرَّةً ثُمَّ صَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ غَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ ثُمَّ صَلَّى الْعَتَمَةَ وَهِيَ الْعِشَاءُ حِينَ غَابَ الشَّفَقُ ثُمَّ صَلَّى الصُّبْحَ حِينَ طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ مِنَ الْغَدِ فَأَخَّرَ الظُّهْرَ إِلَى قَدْرِ ظِلِّهِ وَأَخَّرَ الْعَصْرَ إِلَى قَدْرِ ظِلِّهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ ثُمَّ صَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ وَجَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ ثُمَّ أَعْتَمَ بِالْعِشَاءِ ثُمَّ أَصْبَحَ بِالصُّبْحِ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ صَلَاةٌ قَالَ صَالِحُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ وَكَانَ عَطَاءُ بْنُ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ فِي وَقْتِ الصَّلَاةِ نَحْوَ مَا كَانَ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ يُحَدِّثُ قَالَ صَالِحٌ وَكَانَ عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ وَأَبُو الزُّبَيْرُ الْمَكِّيُّ يُحَدِّثَانِ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ السُّلَمِيِّ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Gabriel came to me at the house twice and prayed Dhuhr when the sun had passed its zenith and it was as long as a spear. He then prayed Asr when the shadow of everything was equal to it." In the narration, he mentioned, "Then he prayed Fajr when the shadow of everything was like it. Then he prayed Dhuhr when the shadow of everything was like it. Then he prayed Asr when the shadow of everything was like it. In the end, he turned to me and said, 'O Muhammad, this is the time of the Prophets before you. And the time between these two times.' Al-Shafi'i claimed that the first time of Asr begins after the end of Dhuhr, and the statement of Ibn Abbas regarding the Prophet's ﷺ prayer of Asr when the shadow of everything was like it means when the shadow of everything reaches its limit. He said, 'I also heard from some of the companions of Ibn Abbas the meaning of what I described, and I believe he mentioned it from Ibn Abbas, who said, 'The Sheikh seems to have intended."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَّنِي جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ عِنْدَ الْبَيْتِ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَصَلَّى بِيَ الظُّهْرَ حِينَ زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَكَانَتْ بِقَدْرِ الشِّرَاكِ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْعَصْرَ حِينَ صَارَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَهُ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ قَالَ فِيهِ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْغَدَ الظُّهْرَ حِينَ كَانَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَهُ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْعَصْرَ حِينَ صَارَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَيْهِ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِي آخِرِهِ ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنَّ هَذَا وَقْتُ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ وَالْوَقْتُ فِيمَا بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ الْوَقْتَيْنِ وَكَانَ الشَّافِعِيُّ ؓ يَذْهَبُ إِلَى أَنَّ أَوَّلَ وَقْتِ الْعَصْرِ يَنْفَصِلُ مِنْ آخِرِ وَقْتِ الظُّهْرِ وَأَنَّ قَوْلَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ صَلَّى بِيَ الْعَصْرَ حِينَ كَانَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَهُ يَعْنِي حِينَ تَمَّ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَهُ جَاوَزَ ذَلِكَ بِأَقَلَّ مِمَّا يُجَاوِزُهُ قَالَ وَبَلَغَنِي عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ مَعْنَى مَا وَصَفْتُهُ وَأَحْسَبُهُ ذَكَرَهُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَكَأَنَّهُ أَرَادَ  

[Machine] The time for the Dhuhr prayer starts when the sun declines and lasts until the Asr prayer, meaning any time you pray within that period. And it is confirmed in the established Sunnah, meaning what Imam Shafi'i may Allah have mercy upon him described.  

وَوَقْتُ صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ حِينَ تَزُولُ الشَّمْسُ إِلَى صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ أَيْ وَقْتَ مَا صَلَّيْتَ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكْتَ وَمَوْجُودٌ فِي السُّنَّةِ الثَّابِتَةِ يَعْنِي مَا وَصَفَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى وَهِيَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said: "The time for Dhuhr prayer is when the sun has passed its zenith and the shadow of a man is the same as his height, as long as Asr prayer has not started. The time for Asr prayer is as long as the sun has not turned yellow, and the time for Maghrib prayer is as long as twilight has not disappeared. Shu'bah said: 'As long as the redness of twilight has not disappeared.' The time for Isha prayer is from the time between you and midnight, and the time for Fajr prayer is when dawn breaks and the sun has not risen." Abu Dawood said: "Shu'bah said: 'Sometimes he raises his hands and sometimes he does not raise them.'"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ وَقْتُ الظُّهْرِ إِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَكَانَ ظِلُّ الرَّجُلِ كَطُولِهِ مَا لَمْ يَحْضُرِ الْعَصْرُ وَوَقْتُ الْعَصْرِ مَا لَمْ تَصْفَرَّ الشَّمْسُ وَوَقْتُ الْمَغْرِبِ مَا لَمْ يَغِبِ الشَّفَقُ وَقَالَ شُعْبَةُ مَا لَمْ يَقَعْ ثَوْرُ الشَّفَقِ وَوَقْتُ الْعِشَاءِ مَا بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَ نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ وَوَقْتُ الصُّبْحِ إِذَا طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ مَا لَمْ تَطْلُعِ الشَّمْسُ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ أَحْيَانًا يَرْفَعُهُ وَأَحْيَانًا لَا يَرْفَعُهُ  

[Machine] A person came to the Prophet ﷺ and asked him about the timings of prayer, but he did not respond to him. Then he instructed Bilal to call for prayer when the dawn broke, so he prayed. Then he instructed him again to call for prayer when the sun was at its zenith, so he prayed the Dhuhr prayer. And the person said, "The sun has either set or it has not yet set." The Prophet ﷺ was more knowledgeable than them. Then he instructed Bilal again to call for prayer when the sun was high, so he prayed the Asr prayer. And the sun was still high. Then he instructed him once again to call for prayer when the sun had set, so he prayed the Maghrib prayer. Then he instructed him again to call for prayer when the darkness of the twilight had disappeared, so he prayed the Isha prayer. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Then he prayed the Fajr prayer the next morning, and the person said, 'The sun has either risen or it has not yet risen.' The Prophet ﷺ was more knowledgeable than them. He prayed Dhuhr prayer quickly, close to the time of Asr prayer the previous day, and then he prayed the Asr prayer. And the person said, 'The sun has turned red.' And he prayed the Maghrib prayer before the disappearance of twilight. And he prayed the Isha prayer in the first third of the night. Then he said, 'Where is the person who asked about the timings? There is a time between these two timings.'"  

أَنَّ سَائِلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ مَوَاقِيتِ الصَّلَاةِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ شَيْئًا ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِلَالًا فَأَقَامَ حِينَ انْشَقَّ الْفَجْرُ فَصَلَّى ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ الظُّهْرَ وَالْقَائِلُ يَقُولُ قَدْ زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ أَوْ لَمْ تَزُلْ وَهُوَ كَانَ أَعْلَمَ مِنْهُمْ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ الْعَصْرَ وَالشَّمْسُ مُرْتَفِعَةٌ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ وَقَعَتِ الشَّمْسُ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ الْعِشَاءَ عِنْدَ سُقُوطِ الشَّفَقِ قَالَ ثُمَّ صَلَّى الْفَجْرَ مِنَ الْغَدِ وَالْقَائِلُ يَقُولُ قَدْ طَلَعَتِ الشَّمْسُ أَوْ لَمْ تَطْلُعْ وَهُوَ كَانَ أَعْلَمَ مِنْهُمْ وَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ قَرِيبًا مِنْ وَقْتِ الْعَصْرِ بِالْأَمْسِ وَصَلَّى الْعَصْرَ وَالْقَائِلُ يَقُولُ قَدِ احْمَرَّتِ الشَّمْسُ وَصَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَغِيبَ الشَّفَقُ وَصَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ ثُلُثَ اللَّيْلِ الْأَوَّلَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنِ الْوَقْتِ؟ مَا بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ الْوَقْتَيْنِ وَقْتٌ  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said: Gabriel came to me at the door of the Kaaba twice and narrated the hadith, and in it, he meant in the second time. Then he prayed Asr when the shadow of everything became similar to it."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ أَتَانِي جِبْرِيلُ عِنْدَ بَابِ الْكَعْبَةِ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِيهِ يَعْنِي فِي الْمَرَّةِ الْأُخْرَى ثُمَّ صَلَّى الْعَصْرَ حِينَ صَارَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَيْهِ  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ, he said: "The time for Dhuhr (noon) prayer is until the time of Asr (afternoon) prayer, and the time for Asr prayer is until the sun turns yellow, and the time for Maghrib (sunset) prayer is until the twilight disappears, and the time for Isha (night) prayer is until midnight, and the time for Fajr (dawn) prayer is until the sun rises."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ وَقْتُ الظُّهْرِ مَا لَمْ يَحْضُرِ الْعَصْرُ وَوَقْتُ الْعَصْرِ مَا لَمْ تَصْفَرَّ الشَّمْسُ وَوَقْتُ الْمَغْرِبِ مَا لَمْ يَسْقُطْ ثَوْرُ الشَّفَقِ وَوَقْتُ الْعِشَاءِ إِلَى نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ وَوَقْتُ صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ مَا لَمْ تَطْلُعِ الشَّمْسُ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever could get one rakʿa (of the Fajr prayer) before sunrise, he has got the (morning) prayer and whoever could get one rakʿa of the ʿAsr prayer before sunset, he has got the (ʿAsr) prayer." (Using translation from Bukhārī 579)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ أَدْرَكَ رَكْعَةً مِنَ الصُّبْحِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَ الصُّبْحَ وَمَنْ أَدْرَكَ رَكْعَةً مِنَ الْعَصْرِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَ الْعَصْرَ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ مُخَرَّجٌ فِي الصَّحِيحَيْنِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ مَالِكٍ  

If anyone says a rak'ah of the 'Asr prayer before sunset, he has observed (the 'Asr prayer), and if anyone performs a rak'ah of the Fajr prayer, he has observed (the Fajr prayer). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 412)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ أَدْرَكَ مِنَ الْعَصْرِ رَكْعَةً قَبْلَ أَنْ تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَ وَمَنْ أَدْرَكَ مِنَ الْفَجْرِ رَكْعَةً قَبْلَ أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ أَبِي الْعَبَّاسِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Gabriel tied me up at the House (meaning the Kaaba) twice, then he narrated to me, and in it he said, 'Then he prayed the Maghrib prayer with me when the fasting people broke their fast.' And he said in the other time, 'Then he prayed the Maghrib prayer with me when the fasting people broke their fast.'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَّنِي جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ عِنْدَ الْبَيْتِ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِيهِ قَالَ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ أَفْطَرَ الصَّائِمَ وَقَالَ فِي الْمَرَّةِ الْأُخْرَى ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِيَ الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ أَفْطَرَ الصَّائِمُ  

"Jibril, peace be upon him, came to the Prophet ﷺ when the sun had passed its zenith and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray Zuhr when the sun has passed its zenith.' Then he waited until a man's shadow was equal to his height. Then he came to him for 'Asr and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray 'Asr.' Then he waited until the sunset, then he came to him and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray Maghrib.' So he got up and prayed it when the sun had set. Then he waited until the twilight disappeared, then he came to him and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray 'Isha'.' So he got up and prayed it. Then he came to him when dawn broke and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.' So he got up and prayed Subh.' So he got up and prayed Subh. Then he came to him the next day when a man's shadow was equal to his height, and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.' So he prayed Zuhr. Then Jibril came to him when a man's shadow was equal to twice his length and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.' So he prayed 'Asr. Then he came to him for Maghrib when the sun set, at exactly the same time as the day before, and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.' So he prayed Maghrib. Then he came to him for 'Isha' when the first third of the night had passed, and said: 'Get up and pray.' So he prayed 'Isha'. Then he came to him for Subh when it had become very bright, and said: 'Get up and pray.' So he prayed Subh. Then he said: 'The times of prayer one between those two (limits).'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 526)   

جَاءَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ حِينَ زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَالَ قُمْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَصَلِّ الظُّهْرَ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ حِينَ زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ ثُمَّ مَكَثَ حَتَّى كَانَ فَيْءُ الرَّجُلِ مِثْلَهُ فَجَاءَهُ فَقَالَ قُمْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَصَلِّ الْعَصْرَ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّى الْعَصْرَ ثُمَّ مَكَثَ حَتَّى غَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ الْمَغْرِبَ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّاهَا حِينَ غَابَتْ سَوَاءً ثُمَّ مَكَثَ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ الشَّفَقُ فَجَاءَهُ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ الْعِشَاءَ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّاهَا ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ حِينَ سَطَعَ الْفَجْرُ لِلصُّبْحِ فَقَالَ قُمْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَصَلِّ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّى الصُّبْحَ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ مِنَ الْغَدِ حِينَ كَانَ فَيْءُ الرَّجُلِ مِثْلَهُ فَقَالَ قُمْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَصَلِّ الظُّهْرَ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ حِينَ كَانَ فَيْءُ الرَّجُلِ مِثْلَيْهِ فَقَالَ قُمْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَصَلِّ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّى الْعَصْرَ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ الْمَغْرِبُ حِينَ غَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَقْتًا وَاحِدًا لَمْ يَزَلْ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ الْمَغْرِبَ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ الْعِشَاءُ حِينَ ذَهَبَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ الْأَوَّلُ فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ الْعِشَاءَ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ الصُّبْحُ حِينَ أَسْفَرَ جِدًّا فَقَالَ قُمْ فَصَلِّ الصُّبْحَ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ كُلُّهُ وَقْتٌ وَبِمَعْنَاهُ  

[Machine] Gabriel ﷺ came to the Prophet ﷺ to teach him how to pray. He came to him when the sun had set, and Gabriel and the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , prayed behind him with the people following the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , then they prayed the Dhuhr prayer. Then Gabriel came to him when the shadow became the height of a man, and Gabriel and the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , prayed behind him with the people following the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , then they prayed the Asr prayer. Then Gabriel came to him when the sun began to set, and Gabriel and the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , prayed behind him with the people following the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , then they prayed the Maghrib prayer. He mentioned the rest of the hadith and said, "Then the next day he came to him when the sun reached its zenith at one time, so Gabriel and the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , prayed behind him with the people following the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , then they prayed the Maghrib prayer." He said and he said at the end, "There is no time between the prayers." Then a man asked the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , about the prayer, so he prayed with them as Gabriel, ﷺ , had prayed with him. Then he said, "Where is the one who asked about the prayer? There is no time between the prayers."  

أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يُعَلِّمُهُ الصَّلَاةَ فَجَاءَهُ حِينَ زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَتَقَدَّمَ جِبْرِيلُ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَلْفَهُ وَالنَّاسُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ حِينَ صَارَ الظِّلُّ مِثْلَ قَامَةِ شَخَصِ الرَّجُلِ فَتَقَدَّمَ جِبْرِيلُ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَلْفَهُ وَالنَّاسُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّى الْعَصْرَ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ حِينَ وَجَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَتَقَدَّمَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَلْفَهُ وَالنَّاسُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ بَاقِي الْحَدِيثِ وَقَالَ فِيهِ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الْيَوْمَ الثَّانِي جَاءَهُ حِينَ وَجَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ لِوَقْتٍ وَاحِدٍ فَتَقَدَّمَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَلْفَهُ وَالنَّاسُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ قَالَ وَقَالَ فِي آخِرِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا بَيْنَ الصَّلَاتَيْنِ وَقْتٌ قَالَ فَسَأَلَ رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ كَمَا صَلَّى بِهِ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ؟ مَا بَيْنَ الصَّلَاتَيْنِ وَقْتٌ  

[Machine] A man asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about the timing of prayer. He prayed Dhuhr when the shadow was as long as the handle of a spear, and he prayed Asr when the shadow was the same length. He prayed Maghrib when the sun had set, and he prayed Isha when the twilight had disappeared. He prayed Fajr when the first light of dawn appeared. Then he prayed Dhuhr on the second day when the shadow was the same length, and he prayed Asr when the shadow was the same length. He prayed Maghrib when the sun had set, and he prayed Isha in the third of the night. He prayed Fajr after it had become bright. Then he said, "Verily, Jibreel informed me that the time between these two times is a time."  

سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ وَقْتِ الصَّلَاةِ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ حِينَ فَاءَ الْفَيْءَ وَصَلَّى الْعَصْرَ حِينَ صَارَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَهُ وَصَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ وَجَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَصَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ حِينَ غَابَ الشَّفَقُ وَصَلَّى الصُّبْحَ حِينَ بَدَا أَوَّلُ الْفَجْرِ ثُمَّ صَلَّى الظُّهْرَ الْيَوْمَ الثَّانِي حِينَ كَانَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَهُ وَصَلَّى الْعَصْرَ حِينَ كَانَ ظِلُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلَيْهِ وَصَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ وَجَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَصَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ فِي ثُلُثِ اللَّيْلِ وَصَلَّى الصُّبْحَ بَعْدَ مَا أَسْفَرَ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ جِبْرِيلَ أَمَّنِي لَيُعَلِّمَكُمْ أَنَّ مَا بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ الْوَقْتَيْنِ وَقْتٌ  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ هَذَا جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ يُعَلِّمُكُمْ دِينَكُمْ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ مَوَاقِيتَ الصَّلَاةِ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ أَنَّهُ صَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ غَرَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ ثُمَّ لَمَّا جَاءَهُ مِنَ الْغَدِ صَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ غَرَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ فِي وَقْتٍ وَاحِدٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ informed them that the angel Gabriel came to him and prayed with him in two occasions, except for the Maghrib Salah. He mentioned that Gabriel came to him in the Maghrib time and prayed with him for an hour after the sun had set. Then, Gabriel came to him the next day in the Maghrib time and prayed with him for an hour after the sun had set. Muhammad did not change him. This was reported by Ammar ibn Saad al-Mu'adhdhin, Abu Bakr ibn Hazm, Abu Mas'ud al-Ansari, Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, and Abdullah ibn Umar in this story about the Maghrib Salah in a similar manner.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ حَدَّثَهُمْ أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ أَتَاهُ فَصَلَّى بِهِ الصَّلَوَاتِ فِي وَقْتَيْنِ إِلَّا الْمَغْرِبَ قَالَ فَجَاءَنِي فِي الْمَغْرِبِ فَصَلَّى بِيَ سَاعَةَ غَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ ثُمَّ جَاءَنِي مِنَ الْغَدِ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ فَصَلَّى بِيَ سَاعَةَ غَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ لَمْ يُغَيِّرْهُ مُحَمَّدٌ هُوَ ابْنُ عَمَّارِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ الْمُؤَذِّنُ وَرُوِّينَا عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ حَزْمٍ عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ وَعَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ فِي هَذِهِ الْقِصَّةِ فِي صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ بِنَحْوِ ذَلِكَ  

[Machine] We used to pray with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ the Maghrib prayer when it got dark with the veil.  

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَغْرِبَ إِذَا تَوَارَتْ بِالْحِجَابِ  

[Machine] We used to pray Maghrib during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and after finishing the prayer, one of us would look at the noble positions mentioned in the Sahihayn from the hadith of Al-Oza'i.  

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي الْمَغْرِبَ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَيَنْصَرِفُ أَحَدُنَا وَإِنَّهُ لَيَنْظُرُ إِلَى مَوَاقِعِ نَبْلِهِ مُخَرَّجٌ فِي الصَّحِيحَيْنِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ  

[Machine] We used to pray Maghrib (evening prayer) with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , then we would go to Bani Salamah, if we had thrown (stones) we would have seen where we hit.  

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَغْرِبَ ثُمَّ نَأْتِي بَنِي سَلَمَةَ فَلَوْ رَمَيْنَا لَرَأَيْنَا مَوَاقِعَ نَبْلِنَا  

[Machine] We used to pray Maghrib prayer with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, then we would go to the market. If we had thrown stones at it, we would have seen its locations.  

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَغْرِبَ ثُمَّ نَأْتِي السُّوقَ فَلَوْ رَمَيْنَا بِالنَّبْلِ لَرَأَيْنَا مَوَاقِعَهَا
