SUMMARY: This hadith is about the importance of prayer, specifically the middle (Al-Wusta) Salah and the 'Asr prayer.

It was narrated that Abu Yunus, the freed slave of 'Aishah the wife of the Prophet , said: "Aishah told me to copy a Mushaf for her, and she said: 'When you reach this verse, call my attention: Guard strictly the Salawat especially the middle (Al-Wusta) Salah. 1 When I reached it, I called her attention and she dictated to me: 'Guard strictly the Salawat especially the middle (Al-Wusta) Salah and the 'Asr prayer, and stand before Allah with obedience'. Then she said: 'I heard it from the Messenger of Allah '." 1 Al-Baqarah 2:238.
أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنِ الْقَعْقَاعِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي يُونُسَ، مَوْلَى عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ أَمَرَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ أَنْ أَكْتُبَ لَهَا مُصْحَفًا فَقَالَتْ إِذَا بَلَغْتَ هَذِهِ الآيَةَ فَآذِنِّي ‏{‏ حَافِظُوا عَلَى الصَّلَوَاتِ وَالصَّلاَةِ الْوُسْطَى ‏}‏ فَلَمَّا بَلَغْتُهَا آذَنْتُهَا فَأَمْلَتْ عَلَىَّ حَافِظُوا عَلَى الصَّلَوَاتِ وَالصَّلاَةِ الْوُسْطَى وَصَلاَةِ الْعَصْرِ وَقُومُوا لِلَّهِ قَانِتِينَ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَتْ سَمِعْتُهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith emphasizes on how important it is to pray and obey Allah. It was narrated by Abu Yunus who was a freed slave of Aisha who was one of Prophet Muhammad's wives. Aisha asked him to copy a Mushaf for her and when he reached a certain verse she told him to call her attention. The verse mentioned guarding strictly on salawat especially al-wusta salah which is also known as middle salah and asr prayer which is done in late afternoon or early evening. She then said that she heard it from Prophet Muhammad himself. This hadith teaches us that we should always be obedient to Allah and guard strictly our prayers especially al-wusta salah and asr prayer because these are two very important prayers that we must not miss out on if we want to please Allah.
