Sunan Ibn Majah 3009 (Book 25, Hadith 128) #32363
The Importance of Punctuality in Following Sunnah

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the importance of punctuality and following the sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ).

It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to stop at 'Arafat in Namirah Valley. When Hajjaj killed Ibn Zubair, he sent word to Ibn 'Umar asking: "At what hour did the Prophet ﷺ go out on this day?" He said: "When that time comes, we will go out". So Hajjah sent a man to watch for the time when they went out. When Ibn 'Umar wanted to set out, he said: "Has the sun passed the zenith?" They said: "It has not passed the zenith yet". So he sat down. Then he said: "Has the sun passed the zenith?" They said: "It has not passed the zenith yet". So he sat down. Then he said: "Has the sun passed the zenith?" They said: "Yes". When they said that it had passed the zenith, he set out.
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَعَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، أَنْبَأَنَا نَافِعُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْجُمَحِيُّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ ﷺ ـ كَانَ يَنْزِلُ بِعَرَفَةَ فِي وَادِي نَمِرَةَ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَلَمَّا قَتَلَ الْحَجَّاجُ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ أَرْسَلَ إِلَى ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَىَّ سَاعَةٍ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ـ ﷺ ـ يَرُوحُ فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ قَالَ إِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ رُحْنَا ‏.‏ فَأَرْسَلَ الْحَجَّاجُ رَجُلاً يَنْظُرُ إِلَى سَاعَةِ يَرْتَحِلُ ‏.‏ فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ أَنْ يَرْتَحِلَ قَالَ أَزَاغَتِ الشَّمْسُ قَالُوا لَمْ تَزِغْ بَعْدُ ‏.‏ فَجَلَسَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَزَاغَتِ الشَّمْسُ قَالُوا لَمْ تَزِغْ بَعْدُ ‏.‏ فَجَلَسَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَزَاغَتِ الشَّمْسُ قَالُوا لَمْ تَزِغْ بَعْدُ ‏.‏ فَجَلَسَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَزَاغَتِ الشَّمْسُ قَالُوا نَعَمْ ‏.‏ فَلَمَّا قَالُوا قَدْ زَاغَتِ ارْتَحَلَ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَكِيعٌ يَعْنِي رَاحَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith highlights the importance of punctuality in following the sunnah. It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar that when Hajjaj killed Ibn Zubair, he sent word to him asking at what hour did Prophet Muhammad go out on this day. When it was time to set out, he asked if the sun has passed its zenith yet and waited until it did before setting out. This shows us that punctuality is important when following the sunnah as Prophet Muhammad himself was very particular about timing. He wanted to make sure that they were setting off at exactly the right time so as not to miss any part of their journey or delay their arrival. This teaches us that we should be mindful and careful with our timing when trying to follow his example and teachings. We should strive for accuracy and precision in all aspects of our lives, especially those related to religious practices such as prayer times or fasting during Ramadan.
