حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِى صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِنَّ لِلصَّلاَةِ أَوَّلاً وَآخِرًا وَإِنَّ أَوَّلَ وَقْتِ صَلاَةِ الظُّهْرِ حِينَ تَزُولُ الشَّمْسُ وَآخِرَ وَقْتِهَا حِينَ يَدْخُلُ وَقْتُ الْعَصْرِ وَإِنَّ أَوَّلَ وَقْتِ صَلاَةِ الْعَصْرِ حِينَ يَدْخُلُ وَقْتُهَا وَإِنَّ آخِرَ وَقْتِهَا حِينَ تَصْفَرُّ الشَّمْسُ وَإِنَّ أَوَّلَ وَقْتِ الْمَغْرِبِ حِينَ تَغْرُبُ الشَّمْسُ وَإِنَّ آخِرَ وَقْتِهَا حِينَ يَغِيبُ الأُفُقُ وَإِنَّ أَوَّلَ وَقْتِ الْعِشَاءِ الآخِرَةِ حِينَ يَغِيبُ الأُفُقُ وَإِنَّ آخِرَ وَقْتِهَا حِينَ يَنْتَصِفُ اللَّيْلُ وَإِنَّ أَوَّلَ وَقْتِ الْفَجْرِ حِينَ يَطْلُعُ الْفَجْرُ وَإِنَّ آخِرَ وَقْتِهَا حِينَ تَطْلُعُ الشَّمْسُ. قَالَ وَفِى الْبَابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَسَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدًا يَقُولُ حَدِيثُ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ فِى الْمَوَاقِيتِ أَصَحُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ فُضَيْلٍ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ وَحَدِيثُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ فُضَيْلٍ خَطَأٌ أَخْطَأَ فِيهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ. حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ أَبِى إِسْحَاقَ الْفَزَارِىِّ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ كَانَ يُقَالُ إِنَّ لِلصَّلاَةِ أَوَّلاً وَآخِرًا فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ فُضَيْلٍ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ نَحْوَهُ بِمَعْنَاهُ.
The Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said, "Indeed, the time of prayer has a beginning and an end. The beginning time for the noon prayer (1) is when the sun passes its zenith, and the end of its time is when the time of the afternoon prayer(2) begins. The beginning time for the afternoon prayer is when its time begins(3), and the end of its time is when the sun turns yellow(4). The beginning time for the sunset prayer(5) is when the sun sets, and the end of its time is when the horizon disappears (from view). The beginning time for the last evening prayer (6) is when the horizon disappears (from view), and the end of its time is when half the night has passed(3). The beginning time for the dawn prayer (first prescribed prayer of the day) is when dawn breaks, and the end of its time is when the sun rises."
1. Second prescribed prayer of the day. 2. Third prescribed prayer of the day. 3. Its time was well-known to the Companions of the Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him. 4. This refers to the darkening of the color of the sun as the day progresses. This is the end of its chosen and preferable time, but the actual ending of its time is when the sun sets, although it should not be delayed that much except in cases of necessity. 5. Fourth prescribed prayer of the day. 6. Fifth prescribed prayer of the day.
