عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَاتَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَدُوًّا فَلَمْ يَفْرُغْ مِنْهُمْ حَتَّى أَخَّرَ الْعَصْرَ عَنْ وَقْتِهَا، فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ قَالَ: ((اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ حَبَسَنَا عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ الْوُسْطَى فَامْلَأْ بُيُوتَهُمْ نَارًا وَامْلَأْ قُبُورَهُمْ نَارًا)) أَوْ نَحْوَ ذَلِكَ
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet fought against the enemy and did not finish until the ‘Asr prayer was delayed from its prescribed time. When he observed this situation, he said: O Allah! Fill with fire the houses and graves of those who kept us from the middle prayer (Salat al-Wusta), or he said something similar to this.
