Hadith 296

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ مَنْدَهَ الأَصْبَهَانِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ قَطَنٍ الْبُخَارِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمَّارِ بْنِ يَاسِرٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ جَدِّي، قَالَ : رَأَيْتُ عَمَّارَ بْنَ يَاسِرٍ صَلَّى بَعْدَ الْمَغْرِبِ سِتَّ رَكَعَاتٍ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا أَبَتِ ، مَا هَذِهِ الصَّلاةُ ؟ ، فَقَالَ : رَأَيْتُ حَبِيبِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ "صَلَّى بَعْدَ الْمَغْرِبِ سِتَّ رَكَعَاتٍ ، وَقَالَ : مَنْ صَلَّى بَعْدَ الْمَغْرِبِ سِتَّ رَكَعَاتٍ غُفِرَتْ لَهُ ذُنُوبُهُ ، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ مثل زَبَدِ الْبَحْرِ "، لا يُرْوَى عَنْ عَمَّارٍ ، إِلا بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ صَالِحُ بْنُ قَطَنٍ
Sayyiduna Muhammad bin Ammar bin Yasir (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I saw Ammar bin Yasir (may Allah be pleased with him) perform six rak‘ahs after Maghrib, so I said: Father! What prayer is this? He said: I saw my beloved, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), perform six rak‘ahs after Maghrib and he said: “Whoever prays six rak‘ahs after Maghrib, his sins are forgiven even if they are like the foam of the sea.”

Benefits and Issues:
Some people refer to this prayer as Salat al-Awwabeen.
The correct view is that Salat al-Awwabeen is another name for the Duha prayer (Salat al-Duha).
As is stated in the Prophetic narration (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam): (Salatu al-Awwabeena heena tarmadu al-fisal)
(Sahih Muslim, Salat al-Musafirin, Chapter: The Prayer of the Oft-Returning (Awwabeen) When the Hooves of the Young Camels are Scorched, Hadith: 748)
“The prayer of those who turn to Allah (Awwabeen) is at the time when the hooves of the young camels begin to burn (from the heat of the sand).”
Both of the aforementioned narrations are weak.
Therefore, both are not valid as proof.
The explanation of the Duha prayer (Salat al-Duha) is coming ahead.
