Majma al-Zawaid 16936 — What one should do after the Subh, Maghrib
عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " لَأَنْ أَقْعُدَ أَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ ، وَأُكَبِّرُهُ ، وَأَحْمَدُهُ ، وَأُسَبِّحُهُ ، وَأُهَلِّلُهُ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ ، أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَعْتِقَ رَقَبَتَيْنِ [ أَوْ أَكْثَرَ ] مِنْ وَلَدِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ . وَمِنْ بَعْدِ الْعَصْرِ حَتَّى تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ ، أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَعْتِقَ أَرْبَعَ رَقَبَاتٍ مِنْ وَلَدِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ " .
Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That I sit (after the morning prayer) remembering Allah, proclaiming His greatness, praising Him, glorifying Him and reciting 'La ilaha illallah', and that I do so until the sun rises, is more beloved to me than freeing two or more slaves from the descendants of Sayyiduna Isma'il (peace be upon him). And that I do so from after Asr until the sun sets is more beloved to me than freeing four slaves from the descendants of Sayyiduna Isma'il (peace be upon him)."
