Hadith 1584
اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنْ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ، عَنْ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ الْعَوَّامٍ، قَالَ: "كُنَّا نُصَلِّي مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْجُمُعَةَ، ثُمَّ نَرْجِعُ فَنَتَبَادِرُ الظِّلَّ فِي أُطُمِ بَنِي غَنْمٍ، فَمَا هُوَ إِلَّا مَوَاضِعُ أَقْدَامِنَا".
Sayyiduna Zubair bin Al-Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We used to perform the Friday prayer with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), then return and hasten to reach the shade of the fortress of Banu Ghanm, which would be equal to the length of our footsteps.
Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Hadith 1583)
That is, the shadow would not become very long; from this it is understood that the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) used to perform the Friday prayer (Jumu‘ah) at the earliest time.
Today, the Friday prayer is delayed until the time of ‘Asr, which is absolutely not in accordance with the noble example (uswah hasanah) or the following of the Sunnah.
