Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that when the Mu’adhdhin of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called the adhan for Dhuhr, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Cool it, cool it,” or he said, “Wait, wait.” Then he said: “Indeed, the severity of heat is from the steam of Hell, so when the heat is intense, cool the prayer.” Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) says: (Therefore, we would perform the Dhuhr prayer) when we saw the shade of the mounds.
