قَوْلُهُ جَلَّ ثَنَاؤُهُ: {حَافِظُوا عَلَى الصَّلَوَاتِ وَالصَّلَاةِ الْوُسْطَى} [البقرة: 238]

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said on the day (of the Battle) of Ahzab: They diverted us from saying the middle prayer, i. e. the 'Asr prayer. May Allah fill their houses and graves with fire; he then observed this prayer between the evening prayer and the night prayer.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الأَحْزَابِ شَغَلُونَا عَنِ الصَّلاَةِ الْوُسْطَى صَلاَةِ الْعَصْرِ مَلأَ اللَّهُ بُيُوتَهُمْ وَقُبُورَهُمْ نَارًا ثُمَّ صَلاَّهَا بَيْنَ الْعِشَاءَيْنِ بَيْنَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَالْعِشَاءِ  

"The idolaters kept the Prophet from the 'Asr prayer until the sun had set. He said: 'They kept us from performing the middle prayer; may Allah fill their graves and their houses with fire.'"  

حَبَسَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنْ صَلاَةِ الْعَصْرِ حَتَّى غَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَالَ حَبَسُونَا عَنْ صَلاَةِ الْوُسْطَى مَلأَ اللَّهُ قُبُورَهُمْ وَبُيُوتَهُمْ نَارًا  

It was narrated that ‘Ali ؓ said. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said on the day of al-Ahzab. ʿThey distracted us from the middle prayer, ‘Asr prayer. May Allah fill their graves and houses with fire.ʿ Then he offered it between the two evening prayers, Maghrib and ‘Isha’.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْأَحْزَابِ شَغَلُونَا عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْوُسْطَى صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ مَلَأَ اللهُ قُبُورَهُمْ وَبُيُوتَهُمْ نَارًا ثُمَّ صَلَّاهَا بَيْنَ الْعِشَاءَيْنِ بَيْنِ الْمَغْرِبِ وَالْعِشَاءِ  

They distracted us on the day of al-Ahzab from ʿAsr prayer, until I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: ʿThey distracted us from the middle prayer, ‘Asr prayer. May Allah fill their graves and houses or stomachs with fire.”  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ شَغَلُونَا عَنْ صَلاةِ الْوُسْطَى صَلاةِ الْعَصْرِ مَلَأَ اللهُ قُبُورَهُمْ وَبُيُوتَهُمْ وَأَجْوَافَهُمْ نَارًا  

[Machine] The pagans held the Messenger of Allah ﷺ captive from performing the Asr prayer until the sun turned yellow or red. Then they said: "They have occupied us from our midday prayer." May Allah fill their graves and hearts with fire.  

حَبَسَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ حَتَّى اصْفَرَّتْ أَوِ احْمَرَّتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَالَ شَغَلُونَا عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْوُسْطَى مَلَأَ اللهُ أَجْوَافَهُمْ أَوْ حَشَا اللهُ أَجْوَافَهُمْ وَقُبُورَهُمْ نَارًا  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was occupied until sunset, missing the Asr prayer. He said, "Those who neglect the middle prayer, may Allah fill their graves and homes with fire."  

شُغِلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ حَتَّى غَرَبَتْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «شَغَلُونَا عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ الْوُسْطَى مَلَأَ اللهُ قُبُورَهُمْ وَبُيُوتَهُمْ نَارًا»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was occupied with something that caused him to miss the afternoon prayer until he prayed it between the evening prayers. He said, "Those who are preoccupied with the middle prayer, may Allah fill their houses and graves with fire."  

شَغَلُوا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ حَتَّى صَلَّاهَا بَيْنَ صَلَاتِي الْعِشَاءِ فَقَالَ «شَغَلُونَا عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْوُسْطَى مَلَأَ اللهُ بُيُوتَهُمْ وَقُبُورَهُمْ نَارًا»  

[Machine] "He said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was occupied on the Day of the Confederates, that he missed the Asr prayer until he prayed between Maghrib and Isha. Thus, he said, 'They have occupied us from the middle prayer of Asr. May Allah fill their graves and homes with fire.'"  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ شُغِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْأَحْزَابِ عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ حَتَّى صَلَّى مَا بَيْنَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَالْعِشَاءِ فَقَالَ شَغَلُونَا عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ الْوُسْطَى صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ مَلَأَ اللهُ قُبُورَهُمْ وَبُيُوتَهُمْ نَارًا  

"شَغَلُونَا عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ الْوُسْطَى صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ، مَلأَ الله تعَالَى أَجْوَافَهُمْ وَقُبُورَهُمْ نَارًا".
