فَضْلِ صَلاَةِ الْعَصْرِ

The virtue of the Asr prayer

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " يَتَعَاقَبُونَ فِيكُمْ مَلاَئِكَةٌ بِاللَّيْلِ وَمَلاَئِكَةٌ بِالنَّهَارِ، وَيَجْتَمِعُونَ فِي صَلاَةِ الْفَجْرِ وَصَلاَةِ الْعَصْرِ، ثُمَّ يَعْرُجُ الَّذِينَ بَاتُوا فِيكُمْ، فَيَسْأَلُهُمْ وَهْوَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِمْ كَيْفَ تَرَكْتُمْ عِبَادِي فَيَقُولُونَ تَرَكْنَاهُمْ وَهُمْ يُصَلُّونَ، وَأَتَيْنَاهُمْ وَهُمْ يُصَلُّونَ ".

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ،

Translation

Abu Hurairah reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Angels take turns among you, angels by night and angels by day, and they gather at the Fajr prayer and the Asr prayer. Then those who spent the night among you ascend, and He asks them – and He knows best about them – ‘How did you leave My servants?’ They say, ‘We left them while they were praying, and we came to them while they were praying.’”

Abu Huraira berichtete, dass der Gesandte Allahs ﷺ sagte: „Engel lösen sich bei euch ab, Engel in der Nacht und Engel am Tag, und sie kommen beim Morgengebet und beim Nachmittagsgebet zusammen. Dann steigen diejenigen, die die Nacht bei euch verbracht haben, auf, und Er fragt sie – und Er weiß besser über sie Bescheid –: ‚Wie habt ihr Meine Diener verlassen?‘ Sie sagen: ‚Wir haben sie verlassen, während sie beteten, und wir sind zu ihnen gekommen, während sie beteten.‘“

Ebû Hüreyre (r.a.), Resûlullah'ın ﷺ şöyle buyurduğunu rivayet etti: “Gece melekleri ve gündüz melekleri aranızda nöbetleşirler; sabah namazında ve ikindi namazında bir araya gelirler. Sonra aranızda geceyi geçirenler yükselir. Onlar hakkında daha iyi bildiği hâlde Allah onlara: ‘Kullarımı nasıl bıraktınız?’ diye sorar. Onlar da: ‘Onları namaz kılarken bıraktık, namaz kılarken yanlarına vardık’ derler.”
