Chapter on Delaying and Advancing Prayers

Zujajat al-Masabih 807Volume 1

English

Narrated by Abdullah ibn Umar: "One night, we waited for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for the last Isha prayer. He came out when a third of the night had passed, or maybe even later. We didn't know if something had delayed him due to his family or something else. He said: 'You are waiting for a prayer that no other people wait for like you. If it were not for the hardship of my Ummah, I would have prayed this prayer at this time.' Then he instructed the muezzin to call for prayer, and he led the prayer."
