وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ قَالَ: ثنا مَالِكٌ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي مُخْبِرٌ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ كَانَ يَقُولُ: " دُلُوكُ الشَّمْسِ إِذَا فَاءَ الْفَيْءُ وَغَسَقُ اللَّيْلِ اجْتِمَاعُ اللَّيْلِ وَظُلْمَتُهُ ".
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) used to say: "The declining of the sun" [Surah al-Isra: 78] means "when the shadow turns back", and "the darkness of the night" [Surah al-Isra: 78] means "the gathering of the night and its darkness".
