Chapter 7 · The Book of Prayer - Travellersصَلاَةُ الأَوَّابِينَ حِينَ تَرْمَضُ الْفِصَالُ
و حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ وَابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ الْقَاسِمِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ رَأَى قَوْمًا يُصَلُّونَ مِنْ الضُّحَى فَقَالَ أَمَا لَقَدْ عَلِمُوا أَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ فِي غَيْرِ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةِ أَفْضَلُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ صَلَاةُ الْأَوَّابِينَ حِينَ تَرْمَضُ الْفِصَالُ.

Salat al-Awwabin (the prayer of the penitent) is when the young camels feel the heat of the hot sand
Zaid bin Arqam رضی اللہ عنہ , on seeing some people praying in the forenoon, said: They well know that prayer at another time than this is more excellent, for Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: The prayer of those who are penitent is observed when your weaned camels feel the heat of the sun.
