522. It was narrated that Abū Baṣrah Al-Ghifārī said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ led us in praying ʿAsr in Al-Mukhammaṣ. He said: "This prayer was enjoined upon those who came before you, but they neglected it. Whoever prays it regularly will have a two-fold reward, and there is no prayer after it until the Shāhid appears." And the Shāhid is "the star."[1] (Shāhīh)
521 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ خَيْرِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ، عَنْ ابْنِ هُبَيْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي تَمِيمٍ الْجَيْشَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي بَصْرَةَ الْغِفَارِيِّ قَالَ: صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْعَصْرَ بِالْمُخَمَّصِ قَالَ: «إِنَّ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ عُرِضَتْ عَلَى مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ فَضَيَّعُوهَا، وَمَنْ حَافَظَ عَلَيْهَا كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ، وَلَا صَلَاةَ بَعْدَهَا حَتَّى يَطْلُعَ الشَّاهِدُ»، وَالشَّاهِدُ: النَّجْمُ

[1] Because it was still bright enough.
"Until the stars come out", in this Hadīth, is meant the time of the setting of the sun, because the sunset is the cause of the visibility of the stars. The stars here do not denote stars in their literal sense. It signifies the brilliant star that appears immediately after the sunset. And Allāh knows best! (Shāhid literally means one who tells, or gives information of what he has witnessed, or seen or beheld with his eye: because it is the Prayer when the star becomes visible).
