Bayhaqi 1731 — Those who said Maghrib has two times

أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلْمَانَ، قَالَ: قُرِئَ عَلَى عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ أنا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، ح. وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ، أنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ الْأَخْمِيمِيُّ بِمَكَّةَ، ثنا مُوسَى بْنُ الْحَسَنِ ثنا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ الْفَضْلُ بْنُ دُكَيْنٍ ثنا بَدْرُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ ثنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ ⦗٥٤٥⦘ أَتَاهُ سَائِلٌ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ مَوَاقِيتِ الصَّلَاةِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ شَيْئًا فَأَمَرَ بِلَالًا فَأَقَامَ الْفَجْرَ حِينَ انْشَقَّ الْفَجْرُ وَالنَّاسُ لَا يَكَادُ يَعْرِفُ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ الظُّهْرَ حِينَ زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَالْقَائِلُ يَقُولُ: انْتَصَفَ النَّهَارُ وَهُوَ كَانَ أَعْلَمَ مِنْهُمْ، وَأَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ الْعَصْرَ وَالشَّمْسُ مُرْتَفِعَةٌ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ الْمَغْرِبَ حِينَ وَقَعَتِ الشَّمْسُ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَأَقَامَ الْعِشَاءَ حِينَ غَابَ الشَّفَقُ ثُمَّ أَخَّرَ الْفَجْرَ مِنَ الْغَدِ حَتَّى انْصَرَفَ مِنْهَا وَالْقَائِلُ يَقُولُ: طَلَعَتِ الشَّمْسُ أَوْ كَادَتْ، ثُمَّ الظُّهْرَ حِينَ كَانَ قَرِيبًا مِنَ الْعَصْرِ، ثُمَّ أَخَّرَ الْعَصْرَ حَتَّى انْصَرَفَ مِنْهَا وَالْقَائِلُ يَقُولُ: احْمَرَّتِ الشَّمْسُ، ثُمَّ أَخَّرَ الْمَغْرِبَ حَتَّى كَانَ عِنْدَ سُقُوطِ الشَّفَقِ، ثُمَّ أَخَّرَ الْعِشَاءَ حَتَّى كَانَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ الْأَوَّلُ، ثُمَّ أَصْبَحَ فَدَعَا السَّائِلَ ثُمَّ قَالَ: " " الْوَقْتُ فِيمَا بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ " " لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ يُوسُفَ رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ بَدْرِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بِهَذَا اللَّفْظِ.
The father of Abu Bakr bin Abi Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that a questioner came to him (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked him about the times of prayer. He (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him no answer. He (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him), and he called the iqamah for Fajr when the dawn broke, while the people could hardly recognise one another. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the order and the iqamah for Zuhr was called when the sun had declined, while someone was saying: It is midday; yet he (peace and blessings be upon him) knew better than them. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the order, and he called the iqamah for Asr while the sun was high. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the order, and he called the iqamah for Maghrib when the sun had set. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the order, and he called the iqamah for Isha when the redness of twilight had disappeared. Then the next day he (peace and blessings be upon him) delayed Fajr until, when he (peace and blessings be upon him) finished, someone was saying: The sun has risen, or nearly so. Then (he prayed) Zuhr when it was close to Asr. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) delayed Asr until, when he (peace and blessings be upon him) finished, someone was saying: The sun has turned red. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) delayed Maghrib until the redness of twilight was about to disappear; then he delayed Isha until it was the first third of the night. Then in the morning he (peace and blessings be upon him) called the questioner and said: "The time of prayer is between these two."
