ḤADĪTH OF THE DAY

“ The Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him said, "Gabriel led me in prayer at the house (1) two times (on two consecutive days). He prayed the noon prayer (2), the first time, when the shadow was the size of a shoe strap (the shortest shadow that could be observed). Then, he prayed the afternoon prayer (3) when everything was as long as its shadow. Then, he prayed the sunset prayer (4) when the sun set, the time when a fasting person breaks his [or her] fast. Then, he prayed the evening prayer (5) when the twilight disappeared. Then, he prayed the dawn prayer (6) when dawn broke, the time when food becomes prohibited for a fasting person. The second time, he prayed the noon prayer until the shadow of everything was equal to its length, the time at which he had prayed the afternoon prayer the day before (7). Then, he prayed the afternoon prayer when the shadow of everything was twice its length. Then, he prayed the sunset prayer at the same time as the day before. Then, he prayed the last evening prayer when one third of the night had passed. Then he prayed the dawn prayer when the earth shone with light. Then Gabriel turned to me and said, 'O Muhammad, thus was the timing (of prayer) for the prophets before you (8). The time [of each prayer] is between these two times (at which we prayed on each of the two days).'" Footnotes: (1) the sanctified house of God (al-Ka'bah) which is the most venerable structure in Islam, situated within in the Sanctified Mosque of Makkah. During prayer, Muslims face its direction, wherever they are in the world. (2) Second prescribed prayer of the day. (3) Third prescribed prayer of the day. (4) Fourth prescribed prayer of the day. (5) Fifth prescribed prayer of the day. (6) First prescribed prayer of the day. (7) He finished the noon prayer on the second day at the same time that he had started the afternoon prayer the first day. (8) i.e. The prayers of the prophets before you had extended times like these. ”

حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِىٍّ الْحُلْوَانِىُّ وَغَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ قَالُوا أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِىِّ عَنْ أَبِى سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِىَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ مَنِ اتَّخَذَ كَلْبًا إِلاَّ كَلْبَ مَاشِيَةٍ أَوْ صَيْدٍ أَوْ زَرْعٍ انْتَقَصَ مِنْ أَجْرِهِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ قِيرَاطٌ. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَيُرْوَى عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِى رَبَاحٍ أَنَّهُ رَخَّصَ فِى إِمْسَاكِ الْكَلْبِ وَإِنْ كَانَ لِلرَّجُلِ شَاةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ. حَدَّثَنَا بِذَلِكَ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ بِهَذَا.
