407. 'Aishah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would pray 'Aṣr while the sun was still in her apartment, before it would rise.(Sahih)

Arabic text

407 - حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ قَالَ: قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ: عُرْوَة، وَلَقَدْ حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ، «أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ وَالشَّمْسُ فِي حُجْرَتِهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَظْهَرَ»

Commentary

Meaning, at the earlier time. The sun would shine on her wall inside, and the meaning of rise is that the sunlight would get higher on her wall as the sun was setting.
