The time of Maghrib prayer becomes due when sunsets

 223. Salamah bin Al-akwa narrated: The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam used to perform the Maghrib prayer when the sun sets and disappears in the veil (of night).

Performing two Rak´ah (NAfl) Maghrib prayer after sunset

 222. Mukhtar bin Fulful said: I asked anas bin Malik, about the Nafl (voluntary prayer) after the ´Ars prayer, he repiled: ´´Umar used to his the hands for performing prayer after the ´Ars prayer and we used to perform two Rak´ah after sunset before the Maghrib during the time of the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam.´´ I said to him: ´´Did the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam perform them?´´ He said: ´´He saw us performing them, but he neither commanded nor forbade us to do so.´´

To perform missed ´Ars prayer after the sunset

 221. Jabir bin´Abdullah narrated: ´Umar bin Al-Khattab swore at the pagans of the Quraish on the day of (the battle of) Khandaq. (He came to the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam) and said: ´´O Messenger of Allah! by Allah, I could not perform the ´Ars prayer until sunset.´´ Upon this, the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´By Allah I, too, have not prayed.´´ So we went to Buthan (a valley). The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam performed Wudu and so did we, and then the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam performed the ´Ars prayer after the sun had set, and then ´Ars prayer after the sun had set, and then offered the Magrib after it.

Performing two Rak´ak after ´Ars prayer

 220. Abu Salamah said that he asked ´Aishah, about the two prostrations (i.e., Rak´ah) which the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam used to pray after the ´Ars. She said: ´´He performed them before the ´Ars prayer, but when he was hindered to do so, or he forgot them, then he performed them after the ´Ars and then he was regular on performing them. (It was his habit) that when he (the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam) performed any prayer, he then continued doing it.´´ Isma´il bin Ja´far said: ´´Ít implies that he always did that.´´

There are three times during which neither prayer should be performed nor a dead be buried

 219. ´Ulaiy bin Rabah said: I heard ´Uqbah bin ´Amir Al-Juhni say: ´´There are three times during which the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam forbade us to pray, or to bury our dead: When the sun begins to rise until it becomes high, when the sun is at its heights at midday until it passes meridian, and when the sun draws near setting until it sets.´´

Regarding the middle prayer

217. ´Abdullah bin Mas´ud narrated: The polytheists detained the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam from the ´Ars until the sun became red or yellow. Upon this, the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´They have kept us busy to perform the middle prayer, the ´Ars prayer. May Allah fill their bellies and their graves with fire (or he said: May Allah stuff their bellies and graves with fire).´´

Prohibition of performing prayer after ´Ars and after Dawn prayers

 218. Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam forbade performing Salat (Prayer) after the ´Ars prayer until the sun sets, and performing Salat after Fajr prayer until the sun rises.

stern warning against missin the ´Ars prayer

 216. ´Abdullah bin ´Umar narrated that the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´Whoever misses the ´Ars prayer (intentionally) is as though he has lost his family and property.´´

Performing ´Ars prayer regularly, prohibition of praying after it

 215. Abu Basrah Al-Ghifari narrated: The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam led us in ´Ars prayer at Mukhammas. He said: ´´This prayer (´Ars) was offered to those who were before you, but they lost it. So whoever performs it regularly, he would get its reward twice. And there is no prayer after it (´Ars) until the Shahid rises.´´ [And Al-Shahid means the star.]

(Performing) the ´Ars prayer in earlier time

 213. Anas bin Malik narrated that the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam used to perform ´Ars prayer at a time when the sun was still high. One would go to Al-Awali and he would reach it when the sun was still high.  214. ´Ala bin Abdur-Rahman said that he went to the house of Anas bin Malik in Basrah after performing the Zuhr. His house was bu the side of the mosque. When we visited him, he said: ´´Have you performed the ´Ars?´´´We said to him: ´´It is just few minutes before that we finished the Zuhr.´´ He said: ´´Pray the ´Ars.´´ So we stood up an performed our prayer. And when we finished, he said: ´´I have heard the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam saying: ´This is how the hypocrite´s prayer is: he sits and watches the sun, when it is between the two horns of Satan, he performs four Rak´at quickly during which he remembers Allah only little.´´´

Praying when it becomes cooler

 212. Abu Dhar narrated: The Mu´adhdhin of the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam called the Adhan for the Zuhr. Upon this the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´Let it cool down, let it cool down (or he said: Wait, wait),´´ he then said, ´´The severity of heat if from the exhalation of Hell. When the heat is severe, delay the prayer until it becomes cooler.´´ Abu Dhar said: (We waited) until one could see the shadow of the hillocks.

The Zuhr prayer at the earlier time

 211. Khabbab narrated: We came to the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam and companined to him about (offering prayer on) the extreme heat of the ground (or sand), but he paid no heed to us. Zuhair said: I asked Abu Ishaq, ´´Whether it was about the Zuhr prayer?´´ He said, ´´Yes.´´ I again asked, ´´Whether it was in its earlier hour?´´ He said, ´´Yes.´´

Prohibition of performing prayer while the sun is rising or setting

 Aishah narrated that the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam did not leave performing two Rak´ak after ´Ars prayer. (the narrator said) she also said that the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´Do not perform prayer at the time of sunrise and sunset.´´

Being particulat on performing the morning and ´Ars prayers

 208. Abu Bakr bin ´Umarah bin Ruwaibah on the authority of his father that the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´Whoever performs prayer before the sunrise and before sunset (i.e., Fajr & ´Ars prayers) will not enter the Fire of (Hell).´´ A man from Basrah (sitting) beside him said: ´´Did you hear it from the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam ?´´ He said: ´´Yes.´´ The man said: ´´And I bear witness that I did hear from the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam; my ears heard it, and my heart retained it.´´ 209. Abu Musa Al-Ash´ari narrated that the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´He who perform two cool prayers (´Ars and Fajr) will enter Jannah.´´

Performing Fajr prayer at its earliest time

 207. Muhammad bin ´Amr said: When Hajjaj came to Al-Madinah, we asked Jabir bin ´Abdullah about the timing of prayer as observed by the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam. He said: ´´The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam used to pray the Zuhr in the midday heat; the ´Ars when the sun was bright; the Maghrib when the sun had completely set; and as for the ´Isha, he sometimes delayed and sometimes (observed it) at earlier time. when he found them (his Companions) assembled (at earlier hours) he (Prayed) early, and when he saw them coming late, he delayed the (prayer), and the Fajr the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam observed at its earliest time.´´

Abu Musa Al-Ash´ari

206. narrated: A person came to the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam inquiring about the time of prayers. He gave him no reply (because he wanted to explain him the times by practically observing these prayers). He ordered Bilal to camm the Iqamah for Fajr when it was hard for people to recognise one another. He then commanded him to call the Iqamah for Zuhr when the sun had passed the meridian, and one would say that it was midday but the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam knew better than them. He then again commanded him to call iqamah for the ´Asr when the sun was high. He then commanded him to call Iqamah for Maghrib when the sun had sunk. He then commanded him to call the Iqamah for ´Isha when the twillight had disappeared. He then delayed the Fajr on the next day (so much so) that after returning from it one would say that the sun had risen or it was about to rise. He then delayed the Zuhr until it was near the time of ´Asr. He then delayed the ´Asr until one after returnin...

The times of As-Salat (the prayer)

 205. ´Abdullah bin ´Amr bin Al-As narrated that the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´The time of Zuhr (the noon prayer) is when the sun passes the meridian and a man´s shadow is equal to his height, (and it lasts) as long as the time for ´Ars (the afternoon prayer) has not come. The time for ´Ash is as long as the sun has not become pale; the time of Maghrib (the evening prayer) is as long as the twilight has not disappeared, the time of ´Isha´ (the night prayer) is up to the middle of the night, and the time of Fajr (the morning prayer) is from the appearance of dawn, as long as the sun had not risen; but when the sun rises, stop praying, for is rises between two horns of Satan (the devil).´´

Neglecting salat is an act of infidelity

 204. Jabir narrated: I heard the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam as saying: ´´The leaving of Salat (the prayer) is (the difference) between man and shirk (polytheism) and Kufr (disbelief).´´

Five prayers expiate the sins in between

 203 Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´Five prayers and from one Friday prayer to (the next) Friday prayer expiate the sins committed between them as long as major sins are avoided.´´ And in other narration: ´´The fasting during one Ramadan to the next Ramadan expiate the sins between their intervals, provided major sins are avoided.´´

The prayer was prescribed two Rak´ak each

 202. Aishah narrated: ´´When the prayers were first enjoined, it was two Rak´ak each. Then this format is approved for travellers and to be performed complete by residents.´´ Az-Zuhri said: I asked ´Urwah: ´What made ´Aishah pray the full prayers (in journey).´´ He replied, ´´She interpreted the matter herself as ´Uthman did.´´

The prescription of As-Salat (the prayer)

 201. Anas bin Maik narrated: We were forbidden to ask the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam (without the genuine need). Therefore, we liked it when an intelligent person from the dwellers of the desert came and asked him while we listened. A man from the dwellers of the desert came (to the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam) and said: ´´O Muhammad, your messenger came to us and told us your claim that Allah had sent you (as a Prophet). He salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´He told the truth.´´ He asked: ´´Who created the heaven?´´ He salla alayhi wa salllam replied: ´´Allah.´´ He aksed: ´´Who created the earth?´´ He salla alayhi wa sallam replied: ´´Allah.´´ He aksed: ´´Whi raied these mountains and who created in them whatever is created?´´ He salla alayhi wa sallam replied: ´´Allah.´´ Upon this he remarked: ´´By Him Who created the heaven and created the earth and raised mountains, has Allah sent you?´´ He salla alayhi wa salalm said: ´´Yes.´´ He said: ´´Your messenger also clai...

The merits of those who repeat what the Mu´adhdhin says

 199. ´Umar bin Khattab narrated that the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´When the Mu´adhdhin says: ´Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest,´ and you say: ´Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest,´ and when he says: ´I testify that there is no true God but Allah,´ you say: ´I testify that there is no true God but Allah,´ and when he says: ´I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah,´ and you say: ´I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah,´ and when he says: ´Come to prayer,´ and you say: ´There is no change of conditions nor power except by Allah,´ and when he says: ´Come to salvation,´ and you say: ´There is no change of conditions nor power except by Allah,´ and when he says: ´Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest,´ and you say: ´Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest,´ and when he says: ´There is no true God but Allah,´ and you say from your heart: ´There os not true God but Allah,´ you will enter Jannah. narrated that th...
