Jabir bin 'Abdullah said:
"Jibril, peace be upon him, came to the Prophet
(ﷺ) when the sun had passed its zenith and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad,
and pray Zuhr when the sun has passed its zenith.' Then he waited until a
man's shadow was equal to his height. Then he came to him for 'Asr and
said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray 'Asr.' Then he waited until the
sunset, then he came to him and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray
Maghrib.' So he got up and prayed it when the sun had set. Then he
waited until the twilight disappeared, then he came to him and said:
'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray 'Isha'.' So he got up and prayed it. Then
he came to him when dawn broke and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.'
So he got up and prayed Subh.' So he got up and prayed Subh. Then he
came to him the next day when a man's shadow was equal to his height,
and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.' So he prayed Zuhr. Then Jibril
came to him when a man's shadow was equal to twice his length and said:
'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.' So he prayed 'Asr. Then he came to him
for Maghrib when the sun set, at exactly the same time as the day
before, and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.' So he prayed Maghrib.
Then he came to him for 'Isha' when the first third of the night had
passed, and said: 'Get up and pray.' So he prayed 'Isha'. Then he came
to him for Subh when it had become very bright, and said: 'Get up and
pray.' So he prayed Subh. Then he said: 'The times of prayer one between
those two (limits).'"
It was narrated that Muhammad bin 'Amr bin Hasan said:
"Al-Hajjaj arrived, and we asked Jabir bin
'Abdullah, who said: 'The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prayed Zuhr at the time
of intense heat, [1] and 'Asr when the sun was white and clear, and
Maghrib when the sun set, and with 'Isha' it would depend - if he saw
that the people had gathered, he would pray early, and if he saw that
they had not come yet, he would delay it.'"
[1] Meaning, at the earliest time.
