Sayyiduna Abu Abdul Rahman al-Sunabihi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "My Ummah will continue upon goodness as long as they do not do three things: as long as they do not delay Maghrib so much that they wait for darkness, which is the way of the Jews; as long as they do not delay Fajr so much that they wait for the stars to fade away, which is the way of the Christians; and as long as they do not leave the funerals to the family of the deceased."
Imam Ahmad recorded it; its chain contains al-Salt bin al-Awwam, who is majhul (unknown), as al-Husayni stated. Some hadiths on this subject have already passed in the chapter on the Maghrib prayer.
