أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ هُوَ الْحَفَرِيُّ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي لَبِيدٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا تَغْلِبَنَّکُمْ الْأَعْرَابُ عَلَی اسْمِ صَلَاتِکُمْ هَذِهِ فَإِنَّهُمْ يُعْتِمُونَ عَلَی الْإِبِلِ وَإِنَّهَا الْعِشَائُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 545
It was narrated that Ibn ‘Umar said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: ‘Do not let the Bedouin make you change the name of this prayer of yours, for they delay the prayer until it is very dark because of their preoccupation with camels and milking them. Verily, it is ‘Isha’.” (Sahih)
