حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَکِيعٌ عَنْ عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ مُعَتِّبٍ الضَّبِّيِّ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ سَهْمِ بْنِ مِنْجَابٍ عَنْ قَزَعَةَ عَنْ قَرْثَعٍ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ کَانَ يُصَلِّي قَبْلَ الظُّهْرِ أَرْبَعًا إِذَا زَالَتْ الشَّمْسُ لَا يَفْصِلُ بَيْنَهُنَّ بِتَسْلِيمٍ وَقَالَ إِنَّ أَبْوَابَ السَّمَائِ تُفْتَحُ إِذَا زَالَتْ الشَّمْسُ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 1157
It was narrated from Abu Ayyub that the Prophet P.B.U.H used to perform four Rak'ah before the Zuhr when the sun had passed its zenith. and he did not separate them with a Taslim. He said, "The gates of heaven are opened when the sun passes its zenith." (Da'if)
