(أَفْضَلُ وَقْتٍ لِدُخُولِ الْبَيْتِ عِنْدَ الْعَوْدَةِ مِنَ السَّفَرِ)
(The best time to enter the house upon returning from travel)
Hadith 3921
وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِنَّ أَحْسَنَ مَا دَخَلَ الرَّجُلُ أَهْلَهُ إِذَا قَدِمَ مِنْ سفرٍ أوَّلُ الليلِ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
Jabir reported the Prophet as saying, “The best time for a man to go in to his family on returning from a journey is at the beginning of the night.” Abu Dawud transmitted it.
