باب فِي وَقْتِ صَلاَةِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَكَيْفَ كَانَ يُصَلِّيهَا

English narration

Narrated by نضلة بن عمرو الأسلمي

Abu Barzah reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would offer the Zuhr prayer when the sun had passed the meridian; he would offer Asr prayer after which one of us would visit the skirts of Madina and return him while the sun was still bright; I forgot what he said about the Maghrib prayer; he did not fear postponing the Isha prayer until a third of night had passed, or he said: until the midnight had passed. He would dislike sleeping before it or talking after it. And he would offer the Fajr prayer when a man could recognize his neighbor whom he recognized well; and he would recite from sixty to a hundred verses during it.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمِنْهَالِ ، عَنْ أَبِي بَرْزَةَ ، قَالَ : "

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي الظُّهْرَ إِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ ، وَيُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ وَإِنَّ أَحَدَنَا لَيَذْهَبُ إِلَى أَقْصَى الْمَدِينَةِ وَيَرْجِعُ وَالشَّمْسُ حَيَّةٌ ، وَنَسِيتُ الْمَغْرِبَ ، وَكَانَ لَا يُبَالِي تَأْخِيرَ الْعِشَاءِ إِلَى ثُلُثِ اللَّيْلِ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ قَالَ : إِلَى شَطْرِ اللَّيْلِ ، قَالَ : وَكَانَ يَكْرَهُ النَّوْمَ قَبْلَهَا ، وَالْحَدِيثَ بَعْدَهَا ، وَكَانَ يُصَلِّي الصُّبْحَ وَمَا يَعْرِفُ أَحَدُنَا جَلِيسَهُ الَّذِي كَانَ يَعْرِفُهُ ، وَكَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِيهَا مِنَ السِّتِّينَ إِلَى الْمِائَةِ
