Volume 1 Book 10 Hadith 522

Volume 1, Book 10, Number 522:
Narrated Saiyar bin Salama:
I along with my father went to Abu- Barza Al-Aslarrni and my father asked him, “How Allah’s
Apostle used to offer the five compulsory congregational prayers?” Abu- Barza said, “The Prophet
used to pray the Zuhr prayer which you (people) call the first one at mid-day when the sun had just
declined The Asr prayer at a time when after the prayer, a man could go to the house at the farthest
place in Medina (and arrive) while the sun was still hot. (I forgot about the Maghrib prayer). The
Prophet Loved to delay the ‘Isha which you call Al- Atama and he disliked sleeping before it and
speaking after it. After the Fajr prayer he used to leave when a man could recognize the one sitting
beside him and he used to recite between 60 to 100 Ayat (in the Fajr prayer) .
