٤٨٣١ - حدثنا وكيع عن علي بن المبارك عن يحيى عن أبي سلمة عن جابر قال: جاء عمر يوم الخندق فجعل يسب كفار قريش ويقول: يا رسول اللَّه ما صليت العصر حتى كادت الشمس أن تغيب فقال رسول اللَّه ﷺ: "وأنَا وَاللَّهِ مَا صَلَّيْتُ بَعْدُ"، فنزل فتوضأ ثم صلى (العصر) (١) بعد ما غربت الشمس ثم صلى المغرب بعد ما صلى العصر (٢).
Hazrat Jabir narrates that during the Battle of Khandaq, Hazrat Umar came while reproaching the Qurayshi leaders. He was saying, "O Messenger of Allah! I have not performed the Asr prayer until the sun was about to set." The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "By Allah! I too have not yet performed the prayer." After that, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution and, after the sun had set, offered the Asr prayer, and after Asr, performed the Maghrib prayer.
