536. It was narrated that 'Aîshah said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ delayed Al-'Atamah one night, and 'Umar, may Allâh be pleased with him, called out to him: 'The women and children have gone to sleep.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ came out and said: 'No one is waiting for it except you.' At that time no prayer was offered except in Al-Madînah. Then he said: 'Pray it between the time when the twilight disappears and when one-third of the night has passed.'" (Sahîh)
535 - أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ حِمْيَرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَبْلَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، وَأَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: أَعْتَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةً بِالْعَتَمَةِ، فَنَادَاهُ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ نَامَ النِّسَاءُ وَالصِّبْيَانُ، فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَالَ: «مَا يَنْتَظِرُهَا غَيْرُكُمْ». وَلَمْ يَكُنْ يُصَلِّي يَوْمَئِذٍ إِلَّا بِالْمَدِينَةِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «صَلُّوهَا فِيمَا بَيْنَ أَنْ يَغِيبَ الشَّفَقُ إِلَى ثُلُثِ اللَّيْلِ» وَاللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ حِمْيَرٍ

[1] It is described as the later Ishâ' prayer because the Maghrib prayer is sometimes called Ishâ' prayer, but it is the first Ishâ'. Some scholars are of the opinion that it is disliked to call Maghrib Ishâ' without qualifying it as the first Ishâ'. See Fath Al-Bârî.
The period of full merit of the Ishâ prayer is until one-third of the night, its permissible time is halfway through the night, and the time of excuse and dire necessity remains until the coming of the dawn.
