باب فِي وَقْتِ صَلاَةِ الظُّهْرِ

English narration

Narrated by أبو ذر الغفاري

Abu Dharr said: We were in the company of the Prophet ﷺ. The muadhdhin intended to call for the Zuhr prayer. He said: Make it cooler. He then intended to call for prayer. He said twice or thrice: Make it cooler. We then witnessed the shadow of the mounds. He then said: The intensity of heat comes from the bubbling over of the Hell ; so when the heat is violent, offer (the Zuhr) prayer when it becomes cooler.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : أَبُو الْحَسَنِ هُوَ مُهَاجِرٌ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ زَيْدَ بْنَ وَهْبٍ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ ، يَقُولُ : كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَرَادَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ أَنْ يُؤَذِّنَ الظُّهْرَ ، فَقَالَ : أَبْرِدْ ، ثُمَّ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُؤَذِّنَ ، فَقَالَ : أَبْرِدْ ، مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا حَتَّى رَأَيْنَا فَيْءَ التُّلُولِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : "

إِنَّ شِدَّةَ الْحَرِّ مِنْ فَيْحِ جَهَنَّمَ ، فَإِذَا اشْتَدَّ الْحَرُّ فَأَبْرِدُوا بِالصَّلَاةِ
