۞
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn abu Nasr from Safwan al-Jammal who has said the following
“Once I performed Salah (prayer) behind abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), at the time of Zawal (declining of the sun toward the west at noontime) and I asked, saying, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, when is it time for al-‘Asr Salah (prayer)?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is when you release your camel.’ I then asked, ‘When it (time of al-‘Asr) is when I am not on a journey?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is time for al-‘Asr when it (the shadow of an object) is less than a step or it is two-thirds of a step.’”
1ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ الْجَمَّالِ قَالَ
صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) عِنْدَ الزَّوَالِ فَقُلْتُ بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي وَقْتُ الْعَصْرِ فَقَالَ وَقْتُ مَا تَسْتَقِيلُ إِبِلَكَ فَقُلْتُ إِذَا كُنْتُ فِي غَيْرِ سَفَرٍ فَقَالَ عَلَى أَقَلَّ مِنْ قَدَمٍ ثُلُثَيْ قَدَمٍ وَقْتُ الْعَصْرِ.
