A man from among the people of Najd with disheveled hair came to the Messenger
of Allah (ﷺ). The humming sound of his voice could be heard but what he was
saying could not be understood. He came closer and it was then known that he was
asking about Islam. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Five times of prayer each
day and night: He asked: Must I observe any more than them? He replied: No,
unless you do it voluntarily. He (Talhah) said that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
mentioned fasting during the month of Ramadan. He asked: Must I observe anything
else? He replied: No, unless you do it voluntarily. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
mentioned Zakat to him. He asked: Must I pay anything else? He replied: No,
unless you do it voluntarily. The man then turned away saying: I swear by Allah,
I shall not add anything to this or fall short of it. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said: The man will be successful if he speaks truth.

Hadith الحديث
This tradition has also been reported by Abu Suhail Nafi' b. Malik b. Abi 'Amir
through a different chain of narrators. It adds:
He will be successful, by his father, if he speaks the truth; he will enter
Paradise, by his father, if he speaks the truth.
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Gabriel (ﷺ) led me in prayer at the House (i.e.
the Ka'bah). He prayed the noon prayer with me when the sun had passed the
meridian to the extent of the thong of a sandal; he prayed the afternoon prayer
with me when the shadow of everything was as long as itself; he prayed the
sunset prayer with me when one who is fasting breaks the fast; he prayed the
night prayer with me when the twilight had ended; and he prayed the dawn prayer
with me when food and drink become forbidden to one who is keeping the fast.
On the following day he prayed the noon prayer with me when his shadow was as
long as himself; he prayed the afternoon prayer with me when his shadow was
twice as long as himself; he prayed the sunset prayer at the time when one who
is fasting breaks the fast; he prayed the night prayer with me when about the
third of the night had passed; and he prayed the dawn prayer with me when there
was a fair amount of light.
Then turning to me he said: Muhammad, this is the time observed by the prophets
before you, and the time is anywhere between two times.

Hadith الحديث
Ibn Shihab said:
'Umar b. 'Abdul 'Aziz was sitting on the pulpit and he somewhat postponed the
afternoon prayer. 'Urwah b. al-Zubair said to him: "Gabriel informed Muhammed
(ﷺ) of the time of prayer". So 'Umar said to him: "Be sure of what you are
saying". 'Urwah then replied: "I heard Bashir b. Abu Mas'ud say that he heard
Abu Mas'ud al-Ansari say that he heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: 'Gabriel
came down and informed me of the time of prayer, and I prayed along with him,
then prayed along with him, then I prayed along with him, then I prayed along
with him, then I prayed along with him, reckoning with his fingers five times of
the prayer.' I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) offering the Duhr prayer when the
sun had passed the meridian. Sometimes he would delay it when it was sever heat
; and I witnessed that he prayer the 'Asr prayer when the sun was high and
bright before the yellowness had overcome it; then a man could go off after the
prayer and reach Dhu'l-Hulaifah before the sunset, and he would pray Maghrib
when the sun had set ; and he would pray the 'Isha prayer when darkness
prevailed over the horizon; sometime he would delay it until the people
assembled; and once he prayer the fair prayer in the darkness of dawn and at
another time he prayed it when it became fairly light; but later on he continued
to pray in the darkness of dawn until his death; he never prayed it again in the
light of the dawn."
Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been transmitted from al-Zuhri by Ma'mar,
Malik, Ibn 'Uyainah, Shu'aib b. Abi Hamzah, and al-Laith b. Sa'd and others; but
they did not mention the time in which he (the Prophet) had prayer, nor did they
explain it. And similarly it has been narrated by Hisham b. 'Urwah and Habib b.
Abu Mazruq from 'Urwah like the report of Ma'mar and his companions. But Habib
did not make a mention of Bashir. And Wahb b. Kaisan reported on the authority
of Jabir from the Prophet (ﷺ) the time of the Maghrib prayer. He said: "Next day
he (Gabriel) came to him at the time of the Maghrib prayer when the sun had
already set. (He came both days) at the same time."
Abu Dawud said: Similarly, this tradition has been transmitted by Abu Hurairah
from the Prophet (ﷺ). He said: "Then he (Gabriel) led me in the sunset prayer
next day at the same time."
Similarly, this tradition has been narrated through a different chain by 'Abd
Allah b. 'Amr b. al-'As, through a chain from Hassan b. 'Atiyyah, from 'Amr b.
Shu'aib, from his father, on the authority from the Prophet (ﷺ).

Abu Musa reported:
A man asked the Prophet (ﷺ) [about the prayer times] but he did reply to him but
he commanded Bilal, who made the announcement for the beginning of the time of
the the fair prayer prayer when the dawn broke. He offered (the fair prayer)
when a man (due to darkness) could not recognize the face of his companion ; or
a man could not know the person who stood by his side. He then commanded Bilal
who made announcement for the beginning of the time of the Zuhr prayer when the
sun had passed the meridian until some said: Has the noon come ? While he (the
Prophet) knew (the time) well. He the commanded Bilal who announced the
beginning of the time of the 'Asr prayer when the sun was white and high. When
the sunset he commanded Bilal who announced beginning of the time of the Maghrib
prayer. When the twilight disappeared he commanded Bilal who announced the
beginning of the Isha prayer. Next day he offered the Fajr prayer and returned
until we said: Has the sun rise ? He observed the Zuhr prayer at the time he has
previously observed the 'Asr prayer. He offered the 'Asr prayer at the time when
the sun had become yellow or the evening had come. He offered the Maghrib prayer
before the twilight had ended. He observed the Isha prayer when a third of the
night had passed. He then asked: Where is the man who was asking me about the
time of prayer. (Then replying to him he said): The time (of your prayer) lies
within these two limits.
Abu Dawud said: Sulaiman b. Musa has narrated this tradition about the time of
the Maghrib prayer from Musa from 'Ata on the authority of Jabir from the
Prophet (ﷺ). This version adds: He then offered the Isha prayer when a third of
the night had passed, as narrated (he said the Isha prayer) when half the night
had passed.
This tradition has been transmitted by Ibn Buraidah on the authority of his
father from the Prophet (ﷺ) in a similar way.

little. When the sun rose high, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Those who sued
to observer the two rak'ahs of Fajr prayer (sunnah prayer before obligatory
prayer) should observe them. Then those who used to observe and those who would
not observe stood up and said prayer. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) commanded
to call for prayer; the call for prayer was made accordingly. The Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ) stood and led us in prayer. When he turned away (from the prayer) he
said: We thank Allah for the fact that we were not engaged in any wordily
affairs which detained us from our prayer. Instead our souls were in the hands
of Allah. He released them whenever He wished. If any one of you gets morning
prayer tomorrow at its proper time, he should offer a similar prayer as an
atonement.

then taught the call to prayer in his dream. Next day he came to the Messenger
of Allah (ﷺ) and informed him about it.
He said: Messenger of Allah, I was between sleep and wakefulness; all of a
sudden a newcomer came (to me) and taught me the call to prayer. Umar ibn al-Khattab
had also seen it in his dream before, but he kept it hidden for twenty days.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said to me (Umar): What did prevent you from saying it to me?
He said: Abdullah ibn Zayd had already told you about it before me: hence I was
ashamed.
Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Bilal, stand up, see what Abdullah ibn
Zayd tells you (to do), then do it. Bilal then called them to prayer.
AbuBishr reported on the authority of AbuUmayr: The Ansar thought that if
Abdullah ibn Zayd had not been ill on that day, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would
have made him mu'adhdhin.

when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ordered a bell to be made so that it might be
struck to gather the people for prayer, a man carrying a bell in his hand
appeared to me while I was asleep, and I said; servant of ‘abd Allah, will you
sell the bell? He asked; what will you do with it? I replied; we shall use it to
call the people to prayer. He said; should I not suggest you something better
than that. I replied: certainly. Then he told me to say: Allah is most great,

should use it to call people to prayer, for he has a louder voice than you have.
So I got up along with Bilal and began to teach it to him and he used it in
making the call to prayer. ‘Umar b. al-khattab (Allah be pleased with him) heard
it while he was in his house and came out trailing his cloak and said: Messenger
of Allah. By him who has sent you with the truth, I have also seen the kind of

Hadith الحديث
Ibn Abi Laila said:
Prayer passed through three stages. And out people narrated to us that Messenger
of Allah (May peace be upon him) said; it is to my liking that the prayer of
Muslims or believers should be united (i.e., in congregation), so much so that I
intended to send people to the houses to announce the time of prayer; and I also
resolved that I should order people to stand at (the tops of) the forts and
announce the time of the prayer for Muslims; and they struck the bell or were
about to strike the bell (to announce the time for prayer). Then came a person
from among the Ansar who said: Messenger of Allah, when I returned from you, as
I saw your anxiety. I saw (in sleep) a person with two green clothes on him; he
stood on the mosque and called (people) to prayer. He then sat down for a short
while and stood up and pronounced in a like manner, except that he added: “The
time for prayer has come”. If the people did not call me (a liar), and according
to the version of Ibn al-Muthanna, if you did not call me (a liar). I would say
that I was awake; I was awake; I was not asleep. The Messenger of Allah (May
peace be upon him) said: According to the version of Ibn al-Muthanna, Allah has
shown you a good (dream). But the version of ‘Amr does not have the words: Allah
has shown you a good (dream). Then ask Bilal to pronounce the ADHAN (to call to
the prayer). ‘Umar (in the meantime) said: I also had a dream like the one he
had. But as he informed earlier. I was ashamed (to inform). Our people have
narrated to us: when a person came (to the mosque during the prayer in
congregation), he would ask (about the RAKAHS of prayer), and he would be
informed about the number of RAKAHS already performed. They would stand (in
prayer) along with the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him): some in
standing position; others bowing; some sitting and some praying along with the
Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him).
Ibn al-Muthanna reported from ‘Amr from Hussain b. Abi Laila, saying ; Until
Mu’adh came. Shu’bah said ; I heard it from Hussain who said : I shall follow
the position (in the prayer in which I find him (the prophet)). . . you should
do in a similar way.
Abu Dawud said: I then turned to the tradition reported by ‘Amr b. Marzuq he
said; then Ma’adh came and they (the people) hinted at him. Shu’bah said; I
heard it from hussain who said: Mu’adh then said; I shall follow the position
(in the prayer when I join it) in which I find him (the prophet). He then said:
Mu’adh has prayer when I join it in which I find him (the prophet). He then
said: MU’adh has introduced for you a SUNNAH (a model behaviour), so you should
do in a like manner. He said; our people have narrated to us; when the Messenger
of Allah (ﷺ) came to Madina, he commanded them (the people) to keep fast for
three days. Thereafter the Quranic verses with regard to the fasts during
Ramadan were revealed. But they were people who were not accustomed to keep fast
; hence the keeping of the fasts was hard for them; so those who could not keep
fast would feed an indigent; then the month”. The concession was granted to the
patient and the traveler; all were commanded to keep fast.

Narrated Mu'adh ibn Jabal:
Prayer passed through three stages and fasting also passed through three stages.
The narrator Nasr reported the rest of the tradition completely. The narrator,
Ibn al-Muthanna, narrated the story of saying prayer facing in the direction of
Jerusalem.
He said: The third stage is that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came to Medina and
prayed, i.e. facing Jerusalem, for thirteen months.
Then Allah, the Exalted, revealed the verse: "We have seen thee turning thy face
to Heaven (for guidance, O Muhammad). And now verily We shall make thee turn (in
prayer) toward a qiblah which is dear to thee. So turn thy face toward the
Inviolable Place of Worship, and ye (O Muslims), wherever ye may be, turn your
face (when ye pray) toward it" (ii.144). And Allah, the Reverend and the
Majestic, turned (them) towards the Ka'bah. He (the narrator) completed his
tradition.
The narrator, Nasr, mentioned the name of the person who had the dream, saying:
And Abdullah ibn Zayd, a man from the Ansar, came. The same version reads: And
he turned his face towards the qiblah and said: Allah is most great, Allah is
most great; I testify that there is no god but Allah, I testify that there is no
god but Allah; I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, I testify that
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah; come to prayer (he pronounced it twice),
come to salvation (he pronounced it twice); Allah is Most Great, Allah is most
great. He then paused for a while, and then got up and pronounced in a similar
way, except that after the phrase "Come to salvation" he added. "The time for
prayer has come, the time for prayer has come."
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Teach it to Bilal, then pronounce the adhan
(call to prayer) with the same words. As regards fasting, he said: The Messenger
of Allah (ﷺ) used to fast for three days every month, and would fast on the
tenth of Muharram. Then Allah, the Exalted, revealed the verse: ".......Fasting
was prescribed for those before you, that ye may ward off (evil)......and for
those who can afford it there is a ransom: the feeding of a man in need
(ii.183-84). If someone wished to keep the fast, he would keep the fast; if
someone wished to abandon the fast, he would feed an indigent every day; it
would do for him. But this was changed. Allah, the Exalted, revealed: "The month
of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur'an ..........(let him fast the same)
number of other days" (ii.185).
Hence the fast was prescribed for the one who was present in the month (of
Ramadan) and the traveller was required to atone (for them); feeding (the
indigent) was prescribed for the old man and woman who were unable to fast. (The
narrator, Nasr, further reported): The companion Sirmah, came after finishing
his day's work......and he narrated the rest of the tradition.

Urwah ibn az-Zubayr reported on the authority of a woman from Banu an-Najjar.
She said: My house was the loftiest of all the houses around the mosque (of the
Prophet at Medina). Bilal used to make a call to the morning prayer from it. He
would come there before the break of dawn and wait for it. When he saw it, he
would yawn and say: O Allah, I praise you and seek Your assistance for the
Quraysh so that they might establish Thine religion. He then would make the call
to prayer.
She (the narrator) said: By Allah, I do not know whether he ever left saying
these words on any night.

I came to the prophet (ﷺ) at Mecca; he was sitting in a tent made of leather.
Then Bilal came out and called to prayer. I looked at his mouth following him
this side and that side (i.e., right and left). Later at his Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) came out clad in a red suit, i.e, wearing the sheets of the Yemen, of the
Qatri design. The version narrated by Musa has the word; “I saw Bilal going
towards al-Abtah”.
He then made a call to prayer. When he reached the words “ come to prayer, come
to salvation”. He turned his neck right and left, respectively; he did not turn
himself (with his whole body). He then entered (his house) and came out with a
lancet. The narrator then reported the rest of the tradition.
