Hadith of Ka'b ibn Murrah al-Bahzi (may Allah be pleased with him)

حَدِيثُ كَعْبِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ الْبَهْزِيِّ، ١٨٨٩٦ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ الْبَهْزِيِّ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَيُّ اللَّيْلِ أَجْوَبُ؟ وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً: أَسْمَعُ، قَالَ: " جَوْفُ اللَّيْلِ الْآخِرِ، وَمَنْ أَعْتَقَ رَقَبَةً أَعْتَقَ اللهُ بِكُلِّ عُضْوٍ مِنْهَا عُضْوًا مِنْهُ مِنَ النَّارِ " (١)،

It is narrated from Ka'b bin Murrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I asked the Holy Prophet (ﷺ), "At which part of the night is supplication most readily accepted?" The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "In the last part of the night." And whoever frees a slave, Allah will free every limb of the one who frees from the Fire of Hell in exchange for every limb of the slave.

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ الْبَهْزِيِّ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَيُّ اللَّيْلِ أَسْمَعُ؟ قَالَ: " جَوْفُ اللَّيْلِ الْآخِرِ " قَالَ: ثُمَّ قَالَ: " ثُمَّ الصَّلَاةُ مَقْبُولَةٌ حَتَّى يُصَلَّى الْفَجْرُ، ثُمَّ لَا صَلَاةَ حَتَّى تَكُونَ الشَّمْسُ قِيدَ رُمْحٍ أَوْ رُمْحَيْنِ، ثُمَّ الصَّلَاةُ مَقْبُولَةٌ حَتَّى يَقُومَ الظِّلُّ قِيَامَ الرُّمْحِ، ثُمَّ لَا صَلَاةَ حَتَّى تَزُولَ الشَّمْسُ، ثُمَّ الصَّلَاةُ مَقْبُولَةٌ حَتَّى تَكُونَ الشَّمْسُ قِيدَ رُمْحٍ أَوْ رُمْحَيْنِ، ثُمَّ لَا صَلَاةَ حَتَّى تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ " قَالَ: " إِذَا غَسَلْتَ وَجْهَكَ خَرَجَتْ خَطَايَاكَ مِنْ وَجْهِكَ، وَإِذَا، ، غَسَلْتَ يَدَيْكَ خَرَجَتْ خَطَايَاكَ مِنْ يَدَيْكَ، وَإِذَا غَسَلْتَ رِجْلَيْكَ خَرَجَتْ خَطَايَاكَ مِنْ رِجْلَيْكَ " (١)، ،

It is narrated from Ka'b bin Murrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I asked the Holy Prophet (ﷺ), "At which part of the night is supplication most accepted?" The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "In the last part of the night, then prayers are accepted until the Fajr prayer. After the Fajr prayer, there is no prayer until the sun rises to the height of one or two spears, then prayers are accepted until the shadow becomes equal to one spear, then there is no prayer until the sun passes its zenith, then prayers are accepted until the sun becomes equal to one or two spears, then there is no prayer until sunset." And he said, "When you wash your face, the sins of the face are washed away; when you wash your hands, the sins of the hands are washed away; and when you wash your feet, the sins of the feet are washed away."
