771. Narrated Saiyyār bin Salama: My father and I went to Abū Barza Al-Aslami رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ to ask him about the stated times for the Ṣalāt (prayers). He replied, "The Prophet ﷺ used to offer the Zuhr prayer when the sun just declined from its highest position at noon; the Aṣr prayer at a time when if a man went to the farthest place in Al-Madīna (after offering Ṣalāt) he would find the sun still hot (bright). (The subnarrator said: I have forgotten what Abū Barza said about the Maghrib prayer). The Prophet ﷺ never found any harm in delaying the Iṣhā prayer to the first third of the night and he never liked to sleep before it and to talk after it. He used to offer the Fajr (early morning) prayer at a time when after finishing it one could recognize the person sitting beside him and used to recite between 60 to 100 Verses in one or both the Rak'ā."

771 - حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سَيَّارُ بْنُ سَلاَمَةَ، قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَأَبِي عَلَى أَبِي بَرْزَةَ الأَسْلَمِيِّ، فَسَأَلْنَاهُ عَنْ وَقْتِ الصَّلَوَاتِ، فَقَالَ: «كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي الظُّهْرَ حِينَ تَزُولُ الشَّمْسُ، وَالعَصْرَ، وَيَرْجِعُ الرَّجُلُ إِلَى أَقْصَى المَدِينَةِ وَالشَّمْسُ حَيَّةٌ - وَنَسِيتُ مَا قَالَ فِي المَغْرِبِ - وَلاَ يُبَالِي بِتَأْخِيرِ العِشَاءِ إِلَى ثُلُثِ اللَّيْلِ، وَلاَ يُحِبُّ النَّوْمَ قَبْلَهَا، وَلاَ الحَدِيثَ بَعْدَهَا، وَيُصَلِّي الصُّبْحَ، فَيَنْصَرِفُ الرَّجُلُ، فَيَعْرِفُ جَلِيسَهُ، وَكَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ - أَوْ إِحْدَاهُمَا - مَا بَيْنَ السِّتِّينَ إِلَى المِائَةِ»
