Sahih

مَنْ كَرِهَ أَنْ يُقَالَ لِلْمَغْرِبِ الْعِشَاءُ

Whoever disliked that the Maghrib prayer be called “Isha”

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " لاَ تَغْلِبَنَّكُمُ الأَعْرَابُ عَلَى اسْمِ صَلاَتِكُمُ الْمَغْرِبِ ". قَالَ الأَعْرَابُ وَتَقُولُ هِيَ الْعِشَاءُ.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ ـ هُوَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ـ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ الْمُزَنِيُّ،

Translation

Abdullah ibn Mughaffal reported that the Prophet ﷺ said, “Do not let the Bedouins prevail over you regarding the name of your prayer, the Maghrib.” He said: The Bedouins say it is the Isha.

Translator’s note: Maghrib is the name of the evening prayer, Isha that of the night prayer.
