Musnad Abi Ya'la 2029 — Al-Hajjaj bin Yusuf came (to Madinah)
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ أَبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ ، حَدَّثَنَا نَضْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو قَالَ : قَدِمَ الْحَجَّاجُ فَكَانَ يُؤَخِّرُ الصَّلَاةَ ، فَسَأَلْنَا جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يُصَلِّي الظُّهْرَ بِالْهَاجِرَةِ حِينَ تَزُولُ الشَّمْسُ ، وَالْعَصْرَ وَالشَّمْسُ نَقِيَّةٌ ، وَالْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ تَغْرُبُ الشَّمْسُ ، وَالْعِشَاءَ أَحْيَانًا يُؤَخِّرُ وَأَحْيَانًا يُعَجِّلُ ، فَكَانَ إِذَا رَأَى النَّاسَ قَدِ اجْتَمَعُوا عَجَّلَ ، وَإِذَا رَآهُمْ قَدْ تَأَخَّرُوا أَخَّرَ ، وَكَانُوا أَوْ كَانَ يُصَلِّي الصُّبْحَ بِغَلَسٍ .
Muhammad bin Amr (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates: Al-Hajjaj bin Yusuf came (to Madinah) and began delaying the prayers, so we asked Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) about this, and he said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray Zuhr in the heat of midday when the sun had passed its zenith; he would pray Asr while the sun was still clear and bright; he would pray Maghrib as soon as the sun set; and as for Isha, sometimes he would delay it and sometimes he would pray it early: when he (peace and blessings be upon him) saw that the people had gathered, he would pray it early, and when he saw that the people were late in coming, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would also delay it. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) (or the Companions) would pray Fajr in the ghalas, that is, in the darkness of early dawn."
