بَابُ اسْتِحْبَابِ تَأْخِيرِهَا إِلَى ثُلُثِ اللَّيْلِ أَوْ نِصْفِهِChapter on the Recommendation of Delaying It to a Third or Half of the Night
Hadith 1169

عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي بِنَا الصَّلَاةَ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ وَلَا يُطِيلُ فِيهَا وَلَا يُخَفِّفُ وَسَطًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَكَانَ يُؤَخِّرُ الْعَتَمَةَ (وَفِي لَفْظٍ: الْعِشَاءَ الْآخِرَةَ)
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to lead us in the obligatory prayers, and he would not make them too long nor too short; his prayer was moderate, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) would delay the ‘Atamah, that is, the ‘Isha prayer.
