Sahih Muslim Hadith 1462 – It Is

English

[1462] 235 – (647) It was narrated from Shu'bah who said: "Sayyâr bin Salâmah informed me: 'I heard my father asking Abü Barzah about the prayer of the Messenger of Allah k;." He said: "I said: 'Did you hear him?' He said: 'It is as if I can hear him now.' He said: 'I heard my father asking him about the prayer of the Messenger of Allah s." He said: "He did not mind delaying some of them," meaning 'Ishâ', "until halfway through the night, and he did not like to sleep before 'Ishâ' nor speak afterwards." Shu'bah said: "Then I met him later on and I asked him, and he said: 'He used to pray Zuhr when the sun passed its zenith, and he prayed 'Asr and a man could go to the farthest part of Al-MadInah and the sun would still be bright.' As for Maghrib, I do not know what time he mentioned. Then I met him after that and I asked him, and he said: 'He used to pray Subh and a man would leave, looking at his companion whom he knew, and he would recognize him. And he used to recite between sixty and one hundred verses in it."
