Mukhtasar Bukhari (Abridged) 342 — Virtue of Asr prayer

Sayedna Jarir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says that we were with the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) when he looked at the moon and said: "Indeed, you will see your Lord just as you are seeing this moon. You will not feel any difficulty or trouble in seeing Him." Therefore, if you can avoid being overpowered (by Satan) regarding the prayers before sunrise and before sunset, then do so. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) recited this verse: "So glorify your Lord with His praise before the rising of the sun and before its setting."
