We came upon Anas b. Malik after the Zuhr prayer. He stood for saying the 'Asr prayer. When he became free from praying, we mentioned to him about observing prayer in its early period or he himself mentioned it. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: This is how hypocrites pray, this is how hypocrites pray, this is how hypocrites pray: He sits (watching the sun), and when it becomes yellow and is between the horns of the devil, or is on the horns of the devil, he rises and prays for rak'ahs quickly, remembering Allah only seldom during them.  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ يَجْلِسُ أَحَدُهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا اصْفَرَّتِ الشَّمْسُ فَكَانَتْ بَيْنَ قَرْنَىْ شَيْطَانٍ أَوْ عَلَى قَرْنَىِ الشَّيْطَانِ قَامَ فَنَقَرَ أَرْبَعًا لاَ يَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ فِيهَا إِلاَّ قَلِيلاً  

Yahya related to me from Malik that al-Ala ibn Abd ar-Rahman said, "We visited Anas ibn Malik after dhuhr and he stood up and prayed asr. When he had finished his prayer, we mentioned doing prayers early in their time, or he mentioned it, and he said that he had heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, the prayer of the hypocrites, the prayer of the hypocrites, the prayer of the hypocrites is that one of them sits until the sun becomes yellow and is between the horns of Shaytan, or on the horn of Shaytan, and then gets up and rattles off four rakas, hardly remembering Allah in them at all.' "  

فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ يَجْلِسُ أَحَدُهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا اصْفَرَّتِ الشَّمْسُ وَكَانَتْ بَيْنَ قَرْنَىِ الشَّيْطَانِ أَوْ عَلَى قَرْنِ الشَّيْطَانِ قَامَ فَنَقَرَ أَرْبَعًا لاَ يَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ فِيهَا إِلاَّ قَلِيلاً

(Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 413)

(Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 413)   

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَاللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ تِلْكَ صَلَاةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ يَجْلِسُ أَحَدُهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا اصْفَرَّتِ الشَّمْسُ وَكَانَتْ بَيْنَ قَرْنَيْ شَيْطَانٍ قَامَ فَنَقَرَ أَرْبَعًا لَا يَذْكُرُ اللهَ فِيهَا إِلَّا قَلِيلًا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, "Shall I not inform you about the prayer of the hypocrites? They delay the 'Asr prayer until it is between the horns of the devil, or on the horns of the devil, then they perform it hastily like the pecking of a rooster. They do not mention Allah in it except a little."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِصَلَاةِ الْمُنَافِقِينَ؟ يَدَعُ الْعَصْرَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَتْ بَيْنَ قَرْنَيِ الشَّيْطَانِ أَوْ عَلَى قَرْنَيِ الشَّيْطَانِ قَامَ فَنَقَرَ كَنَقَرَاتِ الدِّيكِ لَا يَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ فِيهِنَّ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا»  

[Machine] "Fasalliya 'indana fil-hujrati fafaraghna wa tawwala huwa wansarafa ilayna, fakana awalama kallamana bihi an qala innarasulullahi salla Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam qala "Tilka salatu al-munafiqein, yaq'udu ahaduhum hatta izakanta 'ala qarni ash-shaytani aw bayna qarnayi ash-shaytani qama fanakra arba'an, la yadhkuru Allah fiha illa qaleela."

In English, it translates to: "He prayed with us in the room, then he finished and lengthened his stay, and finally he turned towards us. The first thing he said to us was that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'That is the prayer of the hypocrites. One of them sits until it is almost time for the prayer to end, then he quickly stands up and makes four quick rak'ahs, in which he hardly remembers Allah.'"  

فَصَلِّيَا عِنْدَنَا فِي الْحُجْرَةِ فَفَرَغْنَا وَطَوَّلَ هُوَ وَانْصَرَفَ إِلَيْنَا فَكَانَ أَوَّلَ مَا كَلَّمَنَا بِهِ أَنْ قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «تِلْكَ صَلَاةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ يَقْعُدُ أَحَدُهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَتْ عَلَى قَرْنِ الشَّيْطَانِ أَوْ بَيْنَ قَرْنَيِ الشَّيْطَانِ قَامَ فَنَقَرَ أَرْبَعًا لَا يَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ فِيهَا إِلَّا قَلِيلًا»
