Hadith 565
حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو هُوَ ابْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ، قَالَ : سَأَلْنَا جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ صَلَاةِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : " كَانَ يُصَلِّي الظُّهْرَ بِالْهَاجِرَةِ ، وَالْعَصْرَ وَالشَّمْسُ حَيَّةٌ ، وَالْمَغْرِبَ إِذَا وَجَبَتْ ، وَالْعِشَاءَ إِذَا كَثُرَ النَّاسُ عَجَّلَ وَإِذَا قَلُّوا أَخَّرَ ، وَالصُّبْحَ بِغَلَسٍ " .
Narrated Muhammad bin `Amr: We asked Jabir bin `Abdullah about the prayers of the Prophet . He said, "He used to pray Zuhr prayer at midday, the `Asr when the sun was still hot, and the Maghrib after sunset (at its stated time). The `Isha was offered early if the people gathered, and used to be delayed if their number was less; and the morning prayer was offered when it was still dark. "
