Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #26342

Qutaibah narrated to us, Jarir narrated to us, on the authority of Ata’ bin Al-Sa’ib, on the authority of Sa’id bin Jubayr, on the authority of Ibn Abbas, he said, “The Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, only prayed two rak’ahs.” After the afternoon prayer, because money came to him and it distracted him from the two rak’ahs after the afternoon prayer, so he prayed them after the afternoon prayer, then he did not repeat it. For them. And in the chapter on the authority of Aisha, Umm Salamah, Maymunah, and Abu Musa. Abu Issa said the hadith of Ibn Abbas is a good hadith. More than one person narrated on the authority of the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, that he prayed two rak’ahs after the afternoon prayer. This is contrary to what was narrated from him, that he forbade praying after Asr until the sun sets.” And the hadith of Ibn Abbas is more authentic, as he said, “He did not visit them again.” It was narrated on the authority of Zayd ibn Thabit something like Hadith of Ibn Abbas. Narrations were narrated on the authority of Aisha in this section, about which it was narrated that the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, did not enter upon her after the afternoon prayer. Unless he prayed two rak'ahs, and it was narrated on the authority of Umm Salamah, on the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, that he forbade prayer after the afternoon prayer until the sun had set and after the dawn prayer. Until the sun rises. What most scholars have agreed upon is that it is disliked to pray after the afternoon prayer until The sun sets and after the dawn until the sun rises, except for what is excepted from that, such as praying in Mecca after the afternoon until the sun sets. And after dawn until the sun rises, after tawaf. It was narrated from the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, that there was a concession in that. People of knowledge among the companions of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, and those after them. This is what Al-Shafi’i, Ahmad, and Ishaq say. Some of the people of Knowledge from the Companions of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, and those after them, to pray in Mecca also after the afternoon afternoon and after the morning prayer. And about it he says Sufyan Al-Thawri, Malik bin Anas, and some of the people of Kufa.
