689. It was narrated that 'Abbās bin 'Abdul-Muttalib said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'My Ummah will continue to adhere to the Fitrah[1] so long as they do not delay the Maghrib until the stars have all come out.'" (Hasan)
Abu 'Abdullāh bin Mājah said: "I heard Muhammad bin Yahya saying: The people in Baghdād were confused in narrating this Hadith, Abu Bakr Al-A'yan and I went to 'Awwām bin 'Abbād bin 'Awwām and he brought out to us the book of his father, and this Hadith was in it."

b. Delaying the prayers is deviation from the faith of Islam.
