حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي الْمِنْهَالِ عَنْ أَبِي بَرْزَةَ قَالَ کَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي الظُّهْرَ إِذَا زَالَتْ الشَّمْسُ وَيُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ وَإِنَّ أَحَدَنَا لَيَذْهَبُ إِلَی أَقْصَی الْمَدِينَةِ وَيَرْجِعُ وَالشَّمْسُ حَيَّةٌ وَنَسِيتُ الْمَغْرِبَ وَکَانَ لَا يُبَالِي تَأْخِيرَ الْعِشَائِ إِلَی ثُلُثِ اللَّيْلِ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِلَی شَطْرِ اللَّيْلِ قَالَ وَکَانَ يَکْرَهُ النَّوْمَ قَبْلَهَا وَالْحَدِيثَ بَعْدَهَا وَکَانَ يُصَلِّي الصُّبْحَ وَمَا يَعْرِفُ أَحَدُنَا جَلِيسَهُ الَّذِي کَانَ يَعْرِفُهُ وَکَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِيهَا مِنْ السِّتِّينَ إِلَی الْمِائَةِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 398
Abu Barzah reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would offer the Zuhr prayer when the sun had passed the meridian; he would offer Asr prayer after which one of us would visit the skirts of Madina and return him while the sun was still bright; I forgot what he said about the Maghrib prayer; he did not fear postponing the Isha prayer until a third of night had passed, or he said: until the midnight had passed. He would dislike sleeping before it or talking after it. And he would offer the Fajr prayer when a man could recognize his neighbor whom he recognized well; and he would recite from sixty to a hundred verses during it.
