"Indeed, the prayer has a beginning and an end. The beginning time for the ẓuhr prayer is when the sun passes its zenith, and its end time is when the ʿaṣr time begins. The beginning time for the ʿaṣr prayer is when its time begins, and its end time is when the sun turns yellow. The beginning time for the maghrib prayer is when the sun sets, and its end time is when the twilight disappears. The beginning time for the ʿishāʾ prayer is when the twilight disappears, and its end time is when midnight arrives. The beginning time for the fajr prayer is when the dawn breaks, and its end time is when the sun rises." It was narrated by al-Tirmidhī (1/284 - Shākir), al-Ṭaḥāwī in "Sharḥ al-Maʿānī" (1/89), al-Dāraquṭnī in "al-Sunan" (p. 97), al-Bayhaqī (1/375-376), and Aḥmad (2/232) from the route of Muḥammad ibn Faḍīl from al-Aʿmash from Abū Ṣāliḥ from Abū Hurayrah who said: The Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said it, and he mentioned it. I say: This isnād is authentic according to the criteria of the two shaykhs, and they have criticized it because other trustworthy narrators have narrated it from al-Aʿmash from Mujāhid in a mursal form. This is not a significant defect because it is possible that al-Aʿmash had two isnāds for it: one from Abū Ṣāliḥ from Abū Hurayrah. And the other from him from Mujāhid in a mursal form. Such cases are common in the ḥadīths of trustworthy narrators, and such a case does not invalidate the ḥadīth, especially since everything in it has appeared in authentic ḥadīths, so there is nothing objectionable in it. And Allāh knows best. The distinguished scholar Aḥmad Shākir has elaborated on refuting this defect in his commentary on al-Tirmidhī (1/284-285) and has excelled. Whoever wishes for a detailed explanation should refer to it.

"Indeed, the Qurashī has twice the strength of a man who is not from Quraysh." It was narrated by al-Ṭaḥāwī in "Mushkil al-Āthār" (4/203) and Ibn Abī ʿĀṣim in "al-Sunnah"
