وَعَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: ثَلَاثُ سَاعَاتٍ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عَلَم يَنْهَانَا أَنْ نُصَلِّيَ فِيهِنَّ أَوْ أَنْ نُقْبِرَ فِيهِنَّ مَوْتَانَا: حِينَ تَطْلُعُ الشَّمْسُ بَازِغَةٌ حَتَّى تَرْتَفِعَ وَحِينَ يَقُومُ قَائِمُ الظَّهِيرَةِ حَتَّى تَمِيلَ الشَّمْسُ وَحِينَ تَضَيَّفُ الشَّمْسُ لِلْغُرُوبِ حَتَّى تَغْرُبَ – أَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ –
Narrated Uqbah ibn Amir al-Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him): “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to forbid us from praying at three times, or from burying our dead in them: when the sun is rising, bright, until it rises; when the sun is at its zenith, until it passes the meridian; and when the sun is setting, until it sets completely.” Narrated by Muslim.

وَعِنْدَ النِّسَائِيِّ مِنْ حَدِيثٍ لِعَمْرِو بْنِ عَبَسَةَ: فَإِنَّ الصَّلَاةَ مَشْهُودَةٌ مَحْضُورَةٌ إِلَى طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ، فَإِنَّهَا تَطْلُعُ بَيْنَ قَرْنَيِ الشَّيْطَانِ وَهِيَ سَاعَةُ صَلَاةِ الْكُفَّارِ، فَدَعِ الصَّلَاةَ حَتَّى تَرْتَفِعَ قِيدَ رُمْحٍ، وَيَذْهَبَ شُعَاعُهَا
In al-Nasa’i, from the hadith of Amr ibn Abasah: “Prayer is witnessed and attended until the sunrise. The sun rises between the two horns of the devil, and it is the time of the prayer of the disbelievers. So leave off prayer until the sun rises a spear’s length high and its rays have spread out.”

Muslim: 832; al-Nasa’i: 1/279. This hadith is mentioned in Sahih Muslim at great length in باب اسلام عمرو بن عبسة.
