3667. It was narrated that Anas bin Mālik said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Sitting with people who remember Allāh, the Most High, from Al-Ghadāh (Fajr) prayer until the sun has risen, is dearer to me than freeing four of the sons of Ismā'il (from slavery), and sitting with people who remember Allāh from Asr prayer until the sun has set, is dearer to me than freeing four.'" (Da'if)

3667 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُطَهَّرٍ أَبُو ظَفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ خَلَفٍ الْعَمِّىُّ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَأَنْ أَقْعُدَ مَعَ قَوْمٍ يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ، حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ، مِنْ أَنْ أَعْتِقَ أَرْبَعَةً مِنْ وَلَدِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَلَأَنْ أَقْعُدَ مَعَ قَوْمٍ يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ إِلَى، أَنْ تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مَنْ أَنْ أَعْتِقَ أَرْبَعَةً»
