Sub-Chapter (Baab)

Sahih Al Bukhari 599

Imam Bukhari narrates: Musaddad narrated to us, he said: Yahya narrated to us, he said: Auf narrated to us, he said: Abu al-Minhal narrated to us, he said:

I went with my father to Abu Barzah al-Aslami, may Allāh be pleased with him. My father said to him: Narrate to us how the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ used to pray the obligatory prayer. He said that he used to pray at midday, this is the prayer which you call the "Pesheen," he used to pray this prayer when the sun declined (from the middle of the sky), and he used to pray the Asr prayer, then one of us would return to his house in the farthest part of Madinah while the sun was still shining. And I forgot what he said about the Maghrib prayer. And he liked that the Isha prayer be delayed, and he disliked sleeping before Isha, and he disliked talking after Isha. And when he returned after the Fajr prayer, one of us would recognize the person sitting beside him at that time, and he used to recite sixty to a hundred verses.

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَوْفٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمِنْهَالِ، قَالَ انْطَلَقْتُ مَعَ أَبِي إِلَى أَبِي بَرْزَةَ الأَسْلَمِيِّ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبِي حَدِّثْنَا كَيْفَ، كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُصَلِّي الْمَكْتُوبَةَ قَالَ كَانَ يُصَلِّي الْهَجِيرَ وَهْىَ الَّتِي تَدْعُونَهَا الأُولَى حِينَ تَدْحَضُ الشَّمْسُ، وَيُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ أَحَدُنَا إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فِي أَقْصَى الْمَدِينَةِ وَالشَّمْسُ حَيَّةٌ، وَنَسِيتُ مَا قَالَ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ‏.‏ قَالَ وَكَانَ يَسْتَحِبُّ أَنْ يُؤَخِّرَ الْعِشَاءَ‏.‏ قَالَ وَكَانَ يَكْرَهُ النَّوْمَ قَبْلَهَا وَالْحَدِيثَ بَعْدَهَا، وَكَانَ يَنْفَتِلُ مِنْ صَلاَةِ الْغَدَاةِ حِينَ يَعْرِفُ أَحَدُنَا جَلِيسَهُ، وَيَقْرَأُ مِنَ السِّتِّينَ إِلَى الْمِائَةِ‏.‏
