ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ صَلَاةَ الضُّحَى عِنْدَ تَرْمِيضِ الْفِصَالِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْأَوَّابِينَ

[Machine] "He saw a group of people praying the Duha prayer in Masjid Quba, so he said, 'They have learned that praying at a time other than this hour is better. Indeed, the Prophet ﷺ said, 'The prayer of the devout believers is when the camels young ones lose their tails."  

ابن حبّان:٢٥٣٩ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ

أَنَّهُ رَأَى قَوْمًا يُصَلُّونَ الضُّحَى فِي مَسْجِدِ قُبَاءَ فَقَالَ لَقَدْ عَلِمُوا أَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ فِي غَيْرِ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةِ أَفْضَلُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «صَلَاةُ الْأَوَّابِينَ حِينَ تَرْمَضُ الْفِصَالُ»

They well know that prayer at another time than this is more excellent, for Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The prayer of those who are penitent is observed when your weaned camels feel the heat of the sun.  

مسلم:٧٤٨a – وَحَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ وَابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ رَأَى قَوْمًا يُصَلُّونَ مِنَ الضُّحَى فَقَالَ أَمَا لَقَدْ عَلِمُوا

أَنَّ الصَّلاَةَ فِي غَيْرِ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةِ أَفْضَلُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ صَلاَةُ الأَوَّابِينَ حِينَ تَرْمَضُ الْفِصَالُ

[Machine] "That prayer at any other time is preferable. Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said that the prayer of the righteous ones is when the necks of camels are still low, and he also said once, 'And there are people who pray.'"  

أحمد:١٩٢٧٠ – حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ رَأَى قَوْمًا يُصَلُّونَ فِي مَسْجِدِ قُبَاءَ مِنَ الضُّحَى فَقَالَ أَمَا لَقَدْ عَلِمُوا

أَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ فِي غَيْرِ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةِ أَفْضَلُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ صَلَاةَ الْأَوَّابِينَ حِينَ تَرْمَضُالْفِصَالُ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً وَأُنَاسٌ يُصَلُّونَ

They well know that prayer at another time than this is more excellent, for Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The prayer of those who are penitent is observed when your weaned camels feel the heat of the sun. (Using translation from Muslim 748a)  

أحمد:١٩٣١٩ – حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ رَأَى نَاسًا يُصَلُّونَ فِي مَسْجِدِ قُبَاءَ مِنَ الضُّحَى فَقَالَ أَمَا لَقَدْ عَلِمُوا

أَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ فِي غَيْرِ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةِ أَفْضَلُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ صَلَاةَ الْأَوَّابِينَ حِينَ تَرْمَضُ الْفِصَالُ

[Machine] "That prayer in any other time is better, for indeed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Verily the prayer of the Awabeen (devoted worshippers) is when the camels are tied up (i.e. at sunset).' And he ﷺ also said: 'One time, there were people who used to perform prayer.'"  

البيهقي:٤٩٠٨ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عُلَيَّةَ ثنا أَيُّوبُ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ رَأَى قَوْمًا يُصَلُّونَ فِي مَسْجِدِ قُبَاءٍ مِنَ الضُّحَى فَقَالَ أَمَا لَقَدْ عَلِمُوا
