حَدَّثَنَا
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا
مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنِي
أَبِي، عَنْ
قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ
النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ مُقَرِّنٍ، قَالَ : " غَزَوْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَكَانَ إِذَا طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ ، أَمْسَكَ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ ، فَإِذَا طَلَعَتْ ، قَاتَلَ ، فَإِذَا انْتَصَفَ النَّهَارُ ، أَمْسَكَ حَتَّى تَزُولَ الشَّمْسُ ، فَإِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ ، قَاتَلَ حَتَّى الْعَصْرِ ، ثُمَّ أَمْسَكَ حَتَّى يُصَلِّيَ الْعَصْرَ ، ثُمَّ يُقَاتِلُ ، قَالَ : وَكَانَ يُقَالُ : عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ تَهِيجُ رِيَاحُ النَّصْرِ ، وَيَدْعُو الْمُؤْمِنُونَ لِجُيُوشِهِمْ فِي صَلَاتِهِمْ " ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : وَقَدْ رُوِيَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنْ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ مُقَرِّنٍ بِإِسْنَادٍ أَوْصَلَ مِنْ هَذَا ، وَقَتَادَةُ لَمْ يُدْرِكْ النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ مُقَرِّنٍ ، وَمَاتَ النُّعْمَانُ بْنُ مُقَرِّنٍ فِي خِلَافَةِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ .
Nu’man bin Muqarrin (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I fought in jihad with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). When dawn broke, he would halt (from fighting) until the sun had risen. When the sun had risen, he would engage in jihad. Then, when it was midday, he would stop until the sun had declined. When the sun had declined, he would fight until ‘Asr, then he would halt until he had prayed ‘Asr, then he would resume jihad. It was said that at that time the wind of Allah’s help would blow and the believers would pray for the mujahideen in their prayers. © Imam Tirmidhi says:
This hadith from Nu’man bin Muqarrin (may Allah be pleased with him) has also come through another chain which is connected; Qatadah did not meet Nu’man. Nu’man bin Muqarrin died during the caliphate of ‘Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him).

Note:
(Qatadah did not meet Nu'man bin Muqarrin radi Allahu anhu, therefore there is a break (inqita') in this chain of narration. This hadith is authentic through the next chain.)

«أخرجه أبوداود، الجهاد، باب في أي وقت يستحب اللقاء، حديث:2655، والترمذي، السير، حديث:1612، 1613، والحاكم:2 /116، وأحمد:5 /444، 445، والنسائي في الكبرٰي:5 /191، حديث:8637، والبخاري، الجزية والموادعة، حديث:3160.»©
Explanation:
From this hadith, it is understood that the commencement of battle should be at dawn; if there is some delay, then one should wait until the sun has declined. However, this is in the case when the initiation of fighting is to be from the Muslims’ side.
© Hadith Narrator:
«حضرت نعمان بن مقرِّن رضی اللہ عنہ » was called Muzani due to his affiliation with the Muzainah tribe.
During the caliphates of Sayyiduna Siddiq and Faruq (radi Allahu anhuma), he was among the commanders of the army.
He migrated along with his seven other brothers.
He is the conqueror of Isfahan.
He was martyred in the Battle of Nahavand in 21 AH.
(The “ra” in “Muqrin” has a shaddah and a kasrah.
It is on the pattern of “muhaddith.”)
