417. Salamah bin Al-Akwa' said: "The Prophet ﷺ would pray Maghrib at the time when the sun would set — when its edges disappeared." (Sahih)

Arabic text

417 - حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ، قَالَ: «كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي الْمَغْرِبَ سَاعَةَ تَغْرُبُ الشَّمْسُ إِذَا غَابَ حَاجِبُهَا»

Commentary

Once the top edge of the sun has disappeared, the sun has set. There is no need to wait further.
