ذِكْرُ إِثْبَاتِ اسْمِ الْمُنَافِقِ عَلَى الْمُؤَخِّرِ صَلَاةَ الْعَصْرِ إِلَى اصْفِرَارِ الشَّمْسِ

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. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 413)  

ابن حبّان:٢٦١أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ قَالَ

حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ دَخَلْنَا عَلَى أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ بَعْدَ الظُّهْرِ فَقَامَ يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ ذَكَرْنَا تَعْجِيلَ الصَّلَاةِ أَوْ ذَكَرَهَا فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «تِلْكَ صَلَاةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ تِلْكَ صَلَاةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ يَجْلِسُ أَحَدُهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا اصْفَرَّتِ الشَّمْسُ وَكَانَتْ بَيْنَ قَرْنَيِ الشَّيْطَانِ أَوْ عَلَى قَرْنَيِ الشَّيْطَانِ قَامَ فَنَقَرَ أَرْبَعًا لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اللَّهَ فِيهَا إِلَّا قَلِيلًا»

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.'

"عَنِ العلاءِ بنِ عبدِ الرحمنِ قَالَ: دَخَلنَا عَلَى أنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ بَعْدَ الظُّهْرِ فَقَامَ يُصَلى العَصْرَ، فَلَما فَرغَ ذَكرْنَا تَعْجِيلَ الصَّلاَةِ، أوْ ذَكَرَهَا، فَقَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: تِلكَ صَلاَةُ المُنَافِقِينَ ثَلاَثَ مَرأَتِ يَجْلِسُ أحَدُهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا اصْفَرَّتِ الشَّمْسُ وَكانَتْ بَيْنَ قَرْنَىِ الشَّيْطَانِ، أوْ عَلَى قَرْنِ الشَّيْطَانِ قَامَ يَنْقُرُ أَرْبَعًا لاَ يَذْكرُ الله فِيهَا إِلا قَلِيلًا".
