Text and translation

English translation

566. It was narrated from Mūsâ bin 'Âlî that his father said: "I heard 'Uqbah bin 'Âmir say: 'There are three times during which the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ forbade us from praying or burying our dead: When the sun had clearly started to rise until it was fully risen, when it was directly overhead at noon until it has passed the zenith, and when it was close to setting until it had fully set.'" (Sahih)

Arabic text

565 - أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ يَقُولُ: " ثَلَاثُ سَاعَاتٍ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْهَانَا أَنْ نُصَلِّيَ فِيهِنَّ أَوْ نَقْبُرَ فِيهِنَّ مَوْتَانَا: حِينَ تَطْلُعُ الشَّمْسُ بَازِغَةً حَتَّى تَرْتَفِعَ، وَحِينَ يَقُومُ قَائِمُ الظَّهِيرَةِ حَتَّى تَمِيلَ، وَحِينَ تَضَيَّفُ لِلْغُرُوبِ حَتَّى تَغْرُبَ "

Commentary

Collectively, there are five times in which the prayer is undesirable: (1) The sunrise (2) When the sun is at its zenith in the sky (3) The sunset (4) After praying the dawn prayer [Subh] (5) and after praying the mid-afternoon prayer [Asr].
