[Machine] The Messenger of Allah taught me, saying, "Guard the five daily prayers." I said, "These are times when I am occupied, so tell me something comprehensive that I can practice and it will suffice for me." He said, "Guard the two prayers of Asr." I asked, "What are the two Asrs?" He said, "The prayer before the rising of the sun and the prayer before its setting." Abu Harb ibn Abi al-Aswad al-Dilili, one of my senior Tabi'een (followers of the Companions), a man whose hearing of narrations from Fadalah ibn 'Ubayd al-Laythi is not incomplete, for Hisham ibn Bashir is a well-known memorizer, and Khalid ibn Abdullah al-Wasiti is the author of a book, and this hadith is mentioned by Muslim in his book of faith, narrated by Shu'ba from 'Uthman ibn 'Abdullah ibn Muhab and after him from Muhammad ibn 'Uthman from his father." And Khulaf Hisham narrated it from Khalid ibn Abdullah from Abu Harb from 'Abdullah ibn Fadalah from his father. The Messenger of Allah taught me.  

عَلَّمَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَكَانَ فِيمَا عَلَّمَنِي أَنْ قَالَ «حَافِظْ عَلَى الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ» فَقُلْتُ هَذِهِ سَاعَاتٌ لِي فِيهَا اشْتِغَالٌ فَحَدِّثْنِي بِأَمْرٍ جَامِعٍ إِذَا أَنَا فَعَلْتُهُ أَجْزَأَ عَنِّي قَالَ «حَافِظْ عَلَى الْعَصْرَيْنِ» قَالَ وَمَا كَانَتْ مِنْ لُغَتِنَا قُلْتُ وَمَا الْعَصْرَانِ؟ قَالَ «صَلَاةٌ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ وَصَلَاةٌ قَبْلَ غُرُوبِهَا» «وَأَبُو حَرْبِ بْنِ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ الدِّيلِيُّ تَابِعِيٌّ كَبِيرٌ عِنْدَهُ مِنْ أَكَابِرِ الصَّحَابَةِ لَا يُقْصَرُ سَمَاعُهُ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ اللَّيْثِيِّ فَإِنَّ هُشَيْمَ بْنَ بَشِيرٍ حَافِظٌ مَعْرُوفٌ بِالْحِفْظِ وَخَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْوَاسِطِيُّ صَاحِبُ كِتَابٍ وَهَذَا فِي الْجُمْلَةِ كَمَا خَرَّجَ مُسْلِمٌ فِي كِتَابِ الْإِيمَانِ حَدِيثَ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ وَبَعْدَهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ» وخولف هشيم رواه خالد بن عبد الله عن أبي حرب عن عبد الله بن فضالة عن أبيه قال علمني رسول الله ﷺ
