[Machine] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a night when our vision became clear, so we started looking at the moon of the night of the full moon. He said, "Indeed, you will see your Lord as you see the moon, you will not be harmed by looking at Him. If you are able to not miss the two prayers before the sunrise and before the sunset, then do so." And he recited, "{And exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord}" [Surah Ta-Ha, verse 130].

Jarir said, "We were with the Prophet ﷺ and he looked at the moon--full-moon--and said, 'Certainly you will see your Lord as you see this moon and you will have no trouble in seeing Him. So if you can avoid missing (through sleep or business, etc.) a prayer before the sunrise (Fajr) and a prayer before sunset (ʿAsr), you must do so.' He then recited Allah's Statement: And celebrate the praises Of your Lord before the rising of the sun and before (its) setting." (50.39) Ismaʿil said, "Offer those prayers and do not miss them."

We were with the Prophet ﷺ on a full moon night. He looked at the moon and said, "You will certainly see your Lord as you see this moon, and there will be no trouble in seeing Him. So if you can avoid missing (through sleep, business, etc.) a prayer before the rising of the sun (Fajr) and before its setting (ʿAsr) you must do so.

We were in the company of the Prophet ﷺ on a fourteenth night (of the lunar month), and he looked at the (full) moon and said, "You will see your Lord as you see this moon, and you will have no trouble in looking at Him. So, whoever can, should not miss the offering of prayers before sunrise (Fajr prayer) and before sunset (ʿAsr prayer)." Then the Prophet ﷺ recited: 'And celebrate the praises of your Lord before the rising of the sun and before (its) setting.' (50.39)

We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that he looked at the full moon and observed: You shall see your Lord as you are seeing this moon, and you will not be harmed by seeing Him. So if you can, do not let -yourselves be overpowered in case of prayer observed before the rising of the sun and its setting, i. e. the 'Asr prayer and the morning prayer. Jarir then recited it:" Celebrate the praise of thy Lord before the rising of the sun and before Its setting" (xx. 130).

When we are were sitting with the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) he looked at the moon on the night when it was full, that is, fourteenth, and said : You will see your Lord as you see this (moon) and have no doubts about seeing him. If, therefore, you can keep from being prevented from prayer before the sun rises and before it sets, do so. He then recited :”Celebrate the praise of your Lord before the rising of the sun and before its setting”.

So, if you are able to, don't miss the two prayers; the prayer before the sunrise and the prayer before the sunset."
