حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ،، ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ وَقْتِ الصَّلَاةِ فَقَالَ: " صَلِّ مَعَنَا هَذَيْنِ ". فَأَمَرَ بِلَالًا حِينَ طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ، فَأَذَّنَ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَذَّنَ حِينَ زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ الظُّهْرَ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ الْعَصْرَ وَالشَّمْسُ مُرْتَفِعَةٌ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ غَابَ حَاجِبُ الشَّمْسِ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ حِينَ غَابَ الشَّفَقُ، فَأَقَامَ الْعِشَاءَ فَصَلَّى، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ مِنَ الْغَدِ فَأَقَامَ الْفَجْرَ، فَأَسْفَرَ بِهَا، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَبْرَدَ بِالظُّهْرِ فَأَنْعَمَ أَنْ يُبْرِدَ بِهَا، ثُمَّ صَلَّى الْعَصْرَ وَالشَّمْسُ بَيْضَاءُ أَخَّرَهَا فَوْقَ ذَلِكَ الَّذِي كَانَ، وأَمَرَهُ (١) فَأَقَامَ الْمَغْرِبَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَغِيبَ الشَّفَقُ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ الْعِشَاءَ حِينَ ذَهَبَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنْ وَقْتِ الصَّلَاةِ؟ " قَالَ الرَّجُلُ: أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ. فَقَالَ: " وَقْتُ صَلَاتِكُمْ بَيْنَ مَا رَأَيْتُمْ " (٢)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the service of the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) and asked about the timings of prayer. The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) did not give him any answer, but rather ordered Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him), who gave the iqamah for Fajr when dawn had broken and people could not recognize each other. Then he ordered him, and he gave the iqamah for Zuhr when the sun had declined, and some said that half the day had passed, others said it had not, but he knew better. Then he ordered him, and he gave the iqamah for Asr when the sun was still bright. Then he ordered him, and he gave the iqamah for Maghrib when the sun had set. Then he ordered him, and he gave the iqamah for Isha when the twilight had disappeared. Then, on the next day, he delayed Fajr so much that when the prayer was finished, people began to say that the sun was about to rise. He delayed Zuhr so much that it was close to the previous day's Asr. He delayed Asr so much that after the prayer people began to say that the sun had turned red. He delayed Maghrib until the disappearance of the twilight, and Isha until the first third of the night. Then he called the questioner and said: The time for prayer is between these two times.
