Hadith 806

حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ ، سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " إِذَا دَحَضَتِ الشَّمْسُ صَلَّى الظُّهْرَ ، وَقَرَأَ بِنَحْوٍ مِنْ وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى ، وَالْعَصْرِ كَذَلِكَ ، وَالصَّلَوَاتِ كَذَلِكَ إِلَّا الصُّبْحَ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يُطِيلُهَا " .
Jabir bin Samurah said: When the sun declined, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ offered the noon prayer and recited surahs lie "By the night when it covers over" (92) and (recited similar surahs) in the afternoon prayer, and in the other prayers except the dawn prayer which he used to prolong.

Hadith Commentary:
Vocabulary of the Hadith:

(1)
اتَّقُوا اللَّعَّانَيْنِ:
That is, those actions which become a cause of curse and reproach,
which incite people to speak ill or invite them to do so,
meaning, by habit, people send curses upon the one who does such an act.

(2)
ألتَّخَلِّيْ:
To relieve oneself (to answer the call of nature).

(3)
طَرِيق النَّاسِ:
The pathway of people, the place where people come and go.

(3)
فِي ظِلِّهِمْ:
Their shaded place,
the place where people sit and rise,
stay,
camp,
take a midday rest (not every shaded place is meant).

Benefits and Issues:
If someone relieves himself on a path where people walk or in a shaded place where people sit to rest,
then people will be harmed and troubled by this,
as a result of which they will speak ill of him and curse him,
therefore, one should avoid such an act.
In some narrations, a third place is mentioned: watering places (the banks where people come and go for water).
The purpose is that if a person has to relieve himself outside the home,
he should sit in a place where people do not pass by and where it does not cause harm to others.

Commentary:
(1)
The time for the Zuhr prayer begins from the declining of the sun, as is established by the noble verse: ﴿اَقِمِ الصَّلٰوةَ لِدُلُوْكِ الشَّمْسِ﴾ (: Bani Isra'il 17:78) — "Establish the prayer at the declining of the sun." This is what is proven from it.

(2)
The practice of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was to perform the prayer at its earliest time.
