[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The example of the prescribed prayers is like a river flowing fresh at the door of one of you, from which he washes five times a day."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَثَلُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْمَكْتُوبَاتِ كَمَثَلِ نَهَرٍ جَارٍ عَذْبٍ عَلَى بَابِ أَحَدِكُمْ يَغْتَسِلُ مِنْهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ»  

"Do you think that is there was a river by the door of any one of you, and he bathed in it five times each day, would there be any trace of dirt left on him?" They said: "No trace of dirt would be left on him." He said: "That is the likeness of the five daily prayers. By means of them Allah erases sins." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 462)   

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «أَرَأَيْتُمْ لَوْ أَنَّ نَهَرًا بِبَابِ أَحَدِكُمْ يَغْتَسِلُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ مَاذَا تَقُولُونَ ذَلِكَ مُبْقِيًا مِنْ دَرَنِهِ؟» قَالُوا لَا يُبْقِي مِنْ دَرَنِهِ قَالَ «كَذَلِكَ مَثَلُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ يَمْحُو اللَّهُ بِهِنَّ الْخَطَايَا»  

[Machine] Jabir, the Prophet ﷺ used to pray Dhuhr when the sun starts declining, 'Asr when it is still a yellow or white glow, Maghrib when the sun sets, 'Isha sometimes early and sometimes delayed depending on the gathering of people. If they gathered early, he would pray early, and if they gathered late, he would pray late. As for Fajr, sometimes he would delay it or pray it with slight brightness.  

جَابِرٌ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُصَلِّي الظُّهْرَ حِينَ تَزُولُ الشَّمْسُ وَالْعَصْرَ وَهِيَ حَيَّةٌ أَوْ نَقِيَّةٌ وَالْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ تَجِبُ الشَّمْسُ وَالْعِشَاءَ رُبَّمَا عَجَّلَ وَرُبَّمَا أَخَّرَ إِذَا اجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ عَجَّلَ وَإِذَا تَأَخَّرُوا أَخَّرَ وَالصُّبْحَ رُبَّمَا كَانُوا أَوْ كَانَ يُصَلِّيهَا بِغَلَسٍ  

[Machine] "What is this, O Mugheera? Did you not know that Jibreel descended upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he 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 the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed?" Then he said, "I know what you are talking about, O Urwah. Did Jibreel establish the prayer time for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?" He said, "That was how Bashir ibn Abi Mas'ood narrated it from his father." Urwah added, "Aisha told me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray Asr and the sun sets in her chambers before it appeared."  

مَا هَذَا يَا مُغِيرَةُ؟ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ نَزَلَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ «فَصَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ صَلَّى فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «بِهَذَا أُمِرْتَ» قَالَ أعْلمْ مَا تُحَدِّثُ يَا عُرْوَةُ أَوَ أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ أَقَامَ وَقْتَ الصَّلَاةِ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ كَذَلِكَ كَانَ بَشِيرُ بْنُ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ عُرْوَةُ وَلَقَدْ حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ «يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ وَالشَّمْسُ فِي حُجْرَتِهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَظْهَرَ»  

when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered a bell to be made so that it might be struck to gather the people for prayer, a man carrying a bell in his hand appeared to me while I was asleep, and I said; servant of ‘abd Allah, will you sell the bell? He asked; what will you do with it? I replied; we shall use it to call the people to prayer. He said; should I not suggest you something better than that. I replied: certainly. Then he told me to say: Allah is most great, Allah is most great, Allah is most great, Allah is most great. I testify that there is no god but Allah, I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Come to pray, come to pray; come to salvation; come to salvation. Allah is most great, Allah is most great. I testify that there is no god but Allah. He then moved backward a few steps and said: when you utter the IQAMAH, you should say: Allah is most great, Allah is most great. I testify that there is no god but Allah, I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Come to prayer, come to salvation. The time for prayer has come, the time for prayer has come: Allah is most great, Allah is most great. There is no god but Allah. When the morning came, I came to the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) and informed him of what I had seen in the dream. He said: it is a genuine vision, and he then should use it to call people to prayer, for he has a louder voice than you have. So I got up along with Bilal and began to teach it to him and he used it in making the call to prayer. ‘Umar b. al-khattab (Allah be pleased with him) heard it while he was in his house and came out trailing his cloak and said: Messenger of Allah. By him who has sent you with the truth, I have also seen the kind of thing as has been shown to him. The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) said: To Allah be the praise. Abu Dawud said; Al-Zuhri narrated this tradition in a similar way from Sa’id b. al-Musayyib on the authority of ‘Abd Allah b. Zaid. In this version Ibn Ishaq narrated from al-Zuhri: Allah is most great. Allah is most great, Allah is most great, Allah is most great. Ma;mar and yunus narrated from al-Zuhri; Allah is most great, Allah is most great. They did not report it twice again. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 499)   

وَقَدْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِينَ قَدِمَهَا قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ يَعْنِي الْمَدِينَةَ إِنَّمَا يُجْتَمَعُ إِلَيْهِ بِالصَّلَاةِ لِحِينِ مَوَاقِيتِهَا بِغَيْرِ دَعْوَةٍ فَهَمَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ بُوقًا كَبُوقِ الْيَهُودِ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ بِهِ لِصَلَاتِهِمْ ثُمَّ كَرِهَهُ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِالنَّاقُوسِ فَنُحِتَ لِيُضْرَبَ بِهِ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ إِذْ رَأَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ أَخُو اَلْحَارِثِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ طَافَ بِيَ اللَّيْلَةَ طَائِفٌ مَرَّ بِي رَجُلٌ عَلَيْهِ ثَوْبَانِ أَخْضَرَانِ يَحْمِلُ نَاقُوسًا فِي يَدِهِ فَقُلْتُ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ أَتَبِيعُ هَذَا النَّاقُوسَ؟ فَقَالَ وَمَا تَصْنَعُ بِهِ؟ قُلْتُ نَدْعُو بِهِ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ قَالَ أَفَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى خَيْرٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ؟ قُلْتُ وَمَا هُوَ؟ قَالَ تَقُولُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ثُمَّ اسْتَأْخَرَ غَيْرَ كَثِيرٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ وَجَعَلَهَا وِتْرًا إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ فَلَمَّا أخُبِّرَ بِهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّهَا لَرُؤْيَا حَقٌّ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَقُمْ مَعَ بِلَالٍ فَأَلْقِهَا عَلَيْهِ فَإِنَّهُ أَنْدَى صَوْتًا مِنْكَ» فَلَمَّا أَذَّنَ بِلَالٌ سَمِعَهَا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتِهِ فَخَرَجَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَجُرُّ إِزَارَهُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ مِثْلَ مَا رَأَى فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «فَلِلَّهِ الْحَمْدُ فَذَاكَ أَثْبَتُ»  

[Machine] "Through this narration, from his father."  

عَنْ أَبِيهِ بِهَذَا الحديثِ  

[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah commanded the use of bells, he mentioned something similar.  

لَمَّا أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالنَّاقُوسِ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ  

"Bilal calls the Adhan during the night, so eat and drink until Ibn Umm Maktum calls (the Adhan)" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 637)   

«إِنَّ بِلَالًا يُؤَذِّنُ بِلَيْلٍ فَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّى يُؤَذِّنَ ابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ had two muadhins, Bilal and Ibn Umm Maktum. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If Bilal gives the adhan at night, then continue eating and drinking until you hear the adhan of Ibn Umm Maktum." Al-Qasim said, "There was nothing between them except this one would descend while the other ascends."  

كَانَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ مُؤَذِّنَانِ بِلَالٌ وَابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ بِلَالًا يُؤَذِّنُ بِلَيْلٍ فَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّى تَسْمَعُوا أَذَانَ ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ» فَقَالَ الْقَاسِمُ وَمَا كَانَ بَيْنَهُمَا إِلَّا أَنْ يَنْزِلَ هَذَا وَيَرْقَى هَذَا  

[Machine] Saad used to give the call to prayer (adhan) in the mosque of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . Hafs narrated to me that my family told me that Bilal came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to give him the call to prayer for Fajr prayer, but they said that he was sleeping. So Bilal called out in a loud voice, "Prayer is better than sleep", and it was included in the adhan for Fajr prayer. Abu Muhammad said that Saad was called Al-Qaradh.  

أَنَّ سَعْدًا كَانَ يُؤَذِّنُ فِي مَسْجِدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ حَفْصٌ حَدَّثَنِي أَهْلِي أَنَّ بِلَالًا أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُؤْذِنُهُ لِصَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ فَقَالُوا إِنَّهُ نَائِمٌ فَنَادَى بِلَالٌ بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِهِ «الصَّلَاةُ خَيْرٌ مِنَ النَّوْمِ فَأُقِرَّتْ فِي أَذَانِ الْفَجْرِ» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ يُقَالُ سَعْدٌ الْقَرَظُ  

"I asked Ibn 'Umar about the Adhan and he said: 'At the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, the phrases of the Adhan were recited twice and the phrases of Iqamah once, except that you should say (the phrase) Qad qamat is-salah (prayer is about to begin)twice. When we heard 'prayer is about to begin' we would perform Wudu' and go out to pray.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 668)   

أَنَّهُ قَالَ كَانَ الْأَذَانُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَثْنَى مَثْنَى وَالْإِقَامَةُ مَرَّةً غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا قَالَ قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ قَالَهَا مَرَّتَيْنِ فَإِذَا سَمِعْنَا الْإِقَامَةَ تَوَضَّأَ أَحَدُنَا وَخَرَجَ  

"Bilal was commanded to say the phrases of the Adhan twice and the phrases of the Iqamah once." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 730)  

«أُمِرَ بِلَالٌ أَنْ يَشْفَعَ الْأَذَانَ وَيُوتِرَ الْإِقَامَةَ»  

Anas reported; Bilal was commanded to pronounce Adhan in double pairs and IQAMAH in single pairs. Hammam added in his version; “except IQAMAH”. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 508)   

«أُمِرَ بِلَالٌ أَنْ يَشْفَعَ الْأَذَانَ وَيُوتِرَ الْإِقَامَةَ إِلَّا الْإِقَامَةَ»  

I testify that there is no god but Allah, I testify that there is no god but Allah; I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Lowering your voice while saying them (these words). Then you must raise your voice in making the testimony: I testify that there is no god but Allah, I testify there is no god but Allah; I testify Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, I testify Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Come to prayer, come to prayer; come to salvation, come to salvation. If it is the morning prayer, you must pronounce; prayer is better than sleep, prayer is better than sleep, Allah is most great; there is no god but Allah. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 500)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَمَرَ نَحْوًا مِنْ عِشْرِينَ رَجُلًا فَأَذَّنُوا فَأَعْجَبَهُ صَوْتُ أَبِي مَحْذُورَةَ فَعَلَّمَهُ الْأَذَانَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَالْإِقَامَةَ مَثْنَى مَثْنَى  

the Prophet taught him the Adhan with nineteen phrases, and the Iqamah with seventeen phrases. (Using translation from Tirmidhī 192)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ «عَلَّمَهُ الْأَذَانَ تِسْعَ عَشْرَةَ كَلِمَةً وَالْإِقَامَةَ سَبْعَ عَشْرَةَ كَلِمَةً»  

[Machine] "Thus, I made it a habit to follow his mouth movements here and there with the adhan."  

«فَجَعَلْتُ أَتْبَعُ فَاهُ هَاهُنَا وَهَاهُنَا بِالْأَذَانِ»  

[Machine] That Bilal saw a gazelle and then he called for prayer and placed his fingers in his ears, and I saw him turn his fingers in his ears. Abdullah said: This is the Hadith of Thawri and it is the most authentic.  

أَنَّ بِلَالًا «رَكَزَ الْعَنَزَةَ ثُمَّ أَذَّنَ وَوَضَعَ أُصْبُعَيْهِ فِي أُذُنَيْهِ فَرَأَيْتُهُ يَدُورُ فِي أَذَانِهِ» قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدِيثُ الثَّوْرِيِّ أَصَحُّ  

[Machine] The Prophet of Allah ﷺ said: There are two things that are not rejected or hardly rejected: supplication during the call to prayer and supplication during a battle when soldiers are engaged in fighting each other.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ ثِنْتَانِ لَا تُرَدَّانِ أَوْ قَلَّ مَا تُرَدَّانِ الدُّعَاءُ عِنْدَ النِّدَاءِ وَعِنْدَ الْبَأْسِ حِينَ يُلْحِمُ بَعْضُهُ بَعْضًا  

When you hear the Adhan, you should repeat the same words as the mu’adhdhin pronounces. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 522)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا سَمِعْتُمُ الْمُؤَذِّنَ فَقُولُوا مِثْلَ مَا يَقُولُ»  

[Machine] "Indeed, Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. He said, and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Yahya informed me that some of our companions told him that when he said 'Come to prayer,' he said, 'There is no power or strength except with Allah.' Then Muawiya said, 'Thus I heard your Prophet say."  

أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ قَالَ وَأَنَا أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ قَالَ يَحْيَى وَأَخْبَرَنِي بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا أَنَّهُ لَمَّا قَالَ حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ قَالَ لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ هكذا سَمِعْتُ نَبِيَّكُمْ يَقُولُ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught me the Adhan and said: 'Allahu Akbar, Allahu akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar; Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah, Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah; Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulallah, Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulallah (Allah is the Greatest,Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest; I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah; I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger Allah,I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger Allah)'. Then he repeated it and said: 'Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah, Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah; Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulallah, Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulallah; Hayya 'alas-salah, Hayya 'ala-salah; Hayya 'alal-falah Hayya 'alal-falah; Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar; La ilaha ill-Allah (I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah; I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah; Come to prayer, come to prayer; come to prosperity, come to prosperity; Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest; there is none worthy of worship except Allah).'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 631)   

أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ثُمَّ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ فَقَالَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَقَالَ لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ فَقَالَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ فَقَالَ لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ فَقَالَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَكَذَا فَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said: When the call to prayer is announced, the devil runs away and is in a state of panic, to the point where he is unable to hear the call to prayer. But when the call to prayer is finished, he comes back. And when the iqama (second call to prayer) is announced, he runs away again. But when the iqama is finished, he comes back until he reaches between the person and his heart, and then he says: Remember to do this and that, which he did not remember before. Abu Muhammad said: "Thawb" means it is established."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِذَا نُودِيَ بِالصَّلَاةِ أَدْبَرَ الشَّيْطَانُ لَهُ ضُرَاطٌ حَتَّى لَا يَسْمَعَ الْأَذَانَ فَإِذَا قُضِيَ الْأَذَانُ أَقْبَلَ وَإِذَا ثُوِّبَ أَدْبَرَ فَإِذَا قُضِيَ التَّثْوِيبُ أَقْبَلَ حَتَّى يَخْطِرَ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَنَفْسِهِ فَيَقُولُ اذْكُرْ كَذَا وَكَذَا لِمَا لَمْ يَكُنْ يَذْكُرُ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ ثُوِّبَ يَعْنِي أُقِيمَ  

"A man left the Masjid after the call to prayer had been given, and Abu Hurairah said: 'This man has indeed disobeyed Abu Al-Qasim ﷺ.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 684)   

أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ رَأَى رَجُلًا خَرَجَ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ بَعْدَ مَا أَذَّنَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ فَقَالَ «أَمَّا هَذَا فَقَدْ عَصَى أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ»  

"Anas told me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out when the sun had passed its zenith, and led them in Zuhr prayer." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 496)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ «خَرَجَ حِينَ زَاغَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ صَلَاةَ الظُّهْرِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When the heat becomes intense, cool yourselves down with prayer, for the intensity of the heat is from the breath of Hellfire." Abu Muhammad said, "I have this saying of delaying when they are affected by the heat."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا اشْتَدَّ الْحَرُّ فَأَبْرِدُوا بِالصَّلَاةِ فَإِنَّ شِدَّةَ الْحَرِّ مِنْ فَيْحِ جَهَنَّمَ» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ هَذَا عِنْدِي مِن التَّأْخِيرِ إِذَا تَأَذَّوْا بِالْحَرِّ  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray Asr prayer, then the one who goes to Al-Awali comes to him while the sun is still high.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ «يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ ثُمَّ يَذْهَبُ الذَّاهِبُ إِلَى الْعَوَالِي فَيَأْتِيهَا وَالشَّمْسُ مُرْتَفِعَةٌ»  

The Prophet ﷺ used to say the Maghrib prayer immediately after the sun had set when its upper side would disappear. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 417)  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «يُصَلِّي الْمَغْرِبَ سَاعَةَ تَغْرُبُ الشَّمْسُ إِذَا غَابَ حَاجِبُهَا»  

[Machine] From the Prophet (pbuh) said, "My Ummah (nation) will always remain in goodness as long as they do not expect the clash of the stars at Maghrib (sunset)."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا تَزَالُ أُمَّتِي بِخَيْرٍ مَا لَمْ يَنْتَظِرُوا بِالْمَغْرِبِ اشْتِبَاكَ النُّجُومِ»  

[Machine] "By Allah, I certainly inform people of the time of this prayer, meaning the Isha prayer. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray it when the moon had set, around the third of the night." Yahya narrated to us from his book, from Bishr ibn Thabit."  

وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ النَّاسِ بِوَقْتِ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ يَعْنِي صَلَاةَ الْعِشَاءِ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّيهَا لِسُقُوطِ الْقَمَرِ لِثَالِثَةٍ قَالَ يَحْيَى أَمَلَّاهُ عَلَيْنَا مِنْ كِتَابِهِ عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ delayed the Isha prayer on one night until almost one-third of the night had passed or close to it. He came (to the mosque) and found the people reclining and dozing off, some even sleeping. He became angry and said, "If a man among you calls the people for prayer and leads them in prayer, it would be better. And if a man among you were to lead the people in prayer and then go to his family and find them sleeping, he should set fire to their houses with fire."  

أَخَّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الْعِشَاءِ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ حَتَّى كَادَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ أَوْ قَرِيبُهُ فَجَاءَ وَفِي النَّاسُ رُقَّودٌ وَهُمْ عِزُونَ وَهُمْ حِلَقٌ فَغَضِبَ فَقَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا ناَدَى النَّاسَ وَقَالَ عَمْرٌو نَدَبَ النَّاسَ إِلَى عَرْقٍ أَوْ مِرْمَاتَيْنِ لَأَجَابُوا إِلَيْهِ وَهُمْ يَتَخَلَّفُونَ عَنْ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ لَهَمَمْتُ أَنْ آمُرَ رَجُلًا يُصَلِّيَ بِالنَّاسِ ثُمَّ أَتَخَلَّفَ عَلَى أَهْلِ هَذِهِ الدُّورِ الَّذِينَ يَتَخَلَّفُونَ عَنْ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ فَأُضْرِمَهَا عَلَيْهِمْ بِالنِّيرَانِ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ delayed 'Isha' until 'Umar called him and said: 'The women and children have gone to sleep.' Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out and said: 'There is no one who is offering this prayer but you.' And at that time no one used to pray except the people of Al-Madinah." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 482)   

أَعْتَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالْعِشَاءِ حَتَّى نَادَاهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ قَدْ نَامَ النِّسَاءُ وَالصِّبْيَانُ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ يُصَلِّي هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ غَيْرَكُمْ» وَلَمْ يَكُنْ أَحَدٌ يُصَلِّي يَوْمَئِذٍ غَيْرَ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ secluded himself one night until most of the night had passed and the people of the mosque had gone to sleep. Then he went out and prayed it and said, "It is its time, but I did not want to make it difficult for my Ummah."  

أَعْتَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ عَامَّةُ اللَّيْلِ وَرَقَدَ أَهْلُ الْمَسْجِدِ فَخَرَجَ فَصَلَّاهَا فَقَالَ «إِنَّهُ لَوَقْتُهَا لَوْلَا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي»  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ delayed the prayer one night. It was said, "O Messenger of Allah, the women and children have fallen asleep." He went out while wiping the water off his face and said, "It is time, if it were not for me inconveniencing my nation."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَخَّرَ الصَّلَاةَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ الصَّلَاةَ نَامَ النِّسَاءُ وَالْوِلْدَانُ فَخَرَجَ وَهُوَ يَمْسَحُ الْمَاءَ عَنْ شِقِّهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ «هُوَ الْوَقْتُ لَوْلَا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي»  

[Machine] The wives of the Prophet ﷺ used to pray Fajr prayer with the Prophet ﷺ and then they would return home covered with their outer garments before being recognized.  

«كُنَّ نِسَاءُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يُصَلِّينَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ الْفَجْرَ ثُمَّ يَرْجِعْنَ مُتَلَفِّعَاتٍ بِمُرُوطِهِنَّ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُعْرَفْنَ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Set out for the Fajr prayer as it is the greatest reward."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «أَسْفِرُوا بِصَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ فَإِنَّهُ أَعْظَمُ لِلْأَجْرِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said, "Illuminate with the Fajr prayer, for it is the greatest in reward."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «نَوِّرُوا بِصَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ فَإِنَّهُ أَعْظَمُ لِلْأَجْرِ»  

[Machine] Regarding Ibn Ajlan, about him, or "Asfiroo"  

عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ نَحْوَهُ أَوْ «أَسْفِرُوا»  

The Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever catches up with a rak'ah of Jumu'ah prayer has caught up with it." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1425)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ أَدْرَكَ مِنْ صَلَاةٍ رَكْعَةً فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَهَا»  

[Machine] "About the Prophet peace be upon him with his likeness."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمِثْلِهِ  

The Messenger of Allah said: "Whoever catches one Rak'ah of the 'Asr before the sun sets, then he has caught it, and whoever catches one Rak'ah of the Subh before the sun rises, then he has caught it." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 699)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ أَدْرَكَ مِنَ الصُّبْحِ رَكْعَةً قَبْلَ أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَهَا وَمَنْ أَدْرَكَ مِنَ الْعَصْرِ رَكْعَةً قَبْلَ أَنْ تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَهَا»  

The Messenger of Allah said: "If you see a man frequenting the mosques, then bear witness to his faith. Allah says: 'The mosques of Allah shall be maintained only by those who believe in Allah and the Last Day. [At-Taubah: 18]'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 802)   

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ الرَّجُلَ يَعْتَادُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَاشْهَدُوا لَهُ بِالْإِيمَانِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ {إِنَّمَا يَعْمُرُ مَسَاجِدَ اللَّهِ مَنْ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ} [التوبة 18]  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:Whoever prays ʿIshaʿ in congregation, it will be like spending half the night in prayer (qiyam) and whoever prays ʿIshaʿ and Fajr in congregation, it will be like spending the whole night in prayer.ʿ (Using translation from Aḥmad 491)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ صَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ كَانَ كَقِيَامِ نِصْفِ لَيْلَةٍ وَمَنْ صَلَّى الْفَجْرَ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ كَانَ كَقِيَامِ لَيْلَةٍ»  

[Machine] The owner of this house told me and gestured with his hand towards the house of Abdullah that he asked the Prophet ﷺ which actions are better or more beloved to Allah. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Praying at its appointed time."  

حَدَّثَنِي صَاحِبُ هَذِهِ الدَّارِ وَأَوْمَأَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى دَارِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَيُّ الْأَعَمَالِ أَفْضَلُ أَوْ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ قَالَ «الصَّلَاةُ عَلَى مِيقَاتِهَا»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out to us while we were in the mosque, seven of us. Three of us were Arabs and four of us were non-Arabs, or four of us were Arabs and three of us were non-Arabs. The Prophet ﷺ came out from one of the corners of the mosque until he sat with us and asked, "What made you sit here?" We replied, "We are waiting for the prayer." He then tapped the ground with his finger and turned it over for a while, then raised his head and asked, "Do you know what your Lord says?" We replied, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said, "He says, 'Whoever performs the prayer at its prescribed time and observes its proper limits, it will be a guarantee for him to enter Paradise. And whoever does not perform the prayer at its prescribed time and does not observe its proper limits, he will not have any guarantee from me. If I will, I will admit him to Hell, and if I will, I will admit him to Paradise.'"  

خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ سَبْعَةٌ مِنَّا ثَلَاثَةٌ مِنْ عَرَبِنَا وَأَرْبَعَةٌ مِنْ مَوَالِينَا أَوْ أَرْبَعَةٌ مِنْ عَرَبِنَا وَثَلَاثَةٌ مِنْ مَوَالِينَا قَالَ فَخَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مِنْ بَعْضِ حُجَرِهِ حَتَّى جَلَسَ إِلَيْنَا فَقَالَ «مَا يُجْلِسُكُمْ هَاهُنَا؟» قُلْنَا انْتِظَارُ الصَّلَاةِ قَالَ فَنَكَتَ بِإِصْبَعِهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَنَكَسَ سَاعَةً ثُمَّ رَفَعَ إِلَيْنَا رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ «هَلْ تَدْرُونَ مَا يَقُولُ رَبُّكُمْ؟» قَالَ قُلْنَا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ إِنَّهُ يَقُولُ مَنْ صَلَّى الصَّلَاةَ لِوَقْتِهَا فَأَقَامَ حَدَّهَا كَانَ لَهُ بِهِ عَلَيَّ عَهْدٌ أُدْخِلُهُ الْجَنَّةَ وَمَنْ لَمْ يُصَلِّ الصَّلَاةَ لِوَقْتِهَا وَلَمْ يُقِمْ حَدَّهَا لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ عِنْدِي عَهْدٌ إِنْ شِئْتُ أَدْخَلْتُهُ النَّارَ وَإِنْ شِئْتُ أَدْخَلْتُهُ الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "What would you do if you were among people who delay the prayer from its time?" He said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said, "Pray the prayer at its appointed time and then leave, for if the prayer is established while you are in the mosque, then pray with them."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لَهُ «كَيْفَ أَنْتَ إِذَا بَقِيتَ فِي قَوْمٍ يُؤَخِّرُونَ الصَّلَاةَ عَنْ وَقْتِهَا؟» قَالَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ «صَلِّ الصَّلَاةَ لِوَقْتِهَا وَاخْرُجْ فَإِنْ أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ وَأَنْتَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَصَلِّ مَعَهُمْ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Abu Dhar, what would you do if you come across leaders who postpone the prayer from its time?" I asked, "What do you command me, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Pray the prayer in its proper time and make your prayer with them as optional prayers." Abu Muhammad ibn As-Samit, who is the son of the brother of Abu Dhar, said.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ كَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ إِذَا أَدْرَكْتَ أُمَرَاءَ يُؤَخِّرُونَ الصَّلَاةَ عَنْ وَقْتِهَا؟» قُلْتُ مَا تَأْمُرُنِي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «صَلِّ الصَّلَاةَ لِوَقْتِهَا وَاجْعَلْ صَلَاتَكَ مَعَهُمْ نَافِلَةً» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ ابْنُ الصَّامِتِ هُوَ ابْنُ أَخِي أَبِي ذَرٍّ  

"Whoever forgets a prayer, let him pray it when he remembers it, for Allah says: and perform the Salah for My remembrance." [1] [1] Ta-Ha 20:14. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 619)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ نَسِيَ صَلَاةً أَوْ نَامَ عَنْهَا فَلْيُصَلِّهَا إِذَا ذَكَرَهَا إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى يَقُولُ {وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ لِذِكْرِي} [طه 14]  

The Messenger of Allah said: "The one who misses the 'Asr prayer, it is as if he has been cheated out of his family and wealth." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 685)   

إِنَّ الَّذِي تَفُوتُهُ الصَّلَاةُ صَلَاةُ الْعَصْرِ فَكَأَنَّمَا وُتِرَ أَهْلَهُ وَمَالَهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever misses the Asr prayer, it is as if he has lost his family and children." Abu Muhammad said, "Or his wealth."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ فَاتَتْهُ صَلَاةُ الْعَصْرِ فَكَأَنَّمَا وُتِرَ أَهْلَهُ وَوَلَدَهُ» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ أَوْ مَالَهُ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said on the day of al-Khandaq: ʿWhat is wrong with them? May Allah fill their houses and graves with fire as they distracted us from the middle prayer until the sun set.” (Using translation from Aḥmad 1221)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ «مَلَأَ اللَّهُ قُبُورَهُمْ وَبُيُوتَهُمْ نَارًا كَمَا حَبَسُونَا عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْوُسْطَى حَتَّى غَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ»
