Sunan an-Nasai 859 (Book 10, Hadith 83) #15467
The Importance of Praying on Time

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) advised Ahu Dharr to offer his prayers on time and if he is in the Masjid when the Iqamah is said, then he should pray.

It was narrated that Ahu Dharr said: "The Messenger of Allah said to me, and struck my thigh: 'What will you do if you stay among people who delay the prayer until its time is over?' He said: 'What do you command me to do?' He said: 'Offer the prayer on time, then go about your business. Then if the Iqamah for that prayer is said and you are in the Masjid, then pray'."
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ صُدْرَانَ، - وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ - عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ بُدَيْلٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْعَالِيَةِ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَضَرَبَ فَخِذِي ‏"‏ كَيْفَ أَنْتَ إِذَا بَقِيتَ فِي قَوْمٍ يُؤَخِّرُونَ الصَّلاَةَ عَنْ وَقْتِهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ مَا تَأْمُرُ قَالَ ‏"‏ صَلِّ الصَّلاَةَ لِوَقْتِهَا ثُمَّ اذْهَبْ لِحَاجَتِكَ فَإِنْ أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ وَأَنْتَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَصَلِّ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith highlights the importance of offering prayers on time. It was narrated by Ahu Dharr that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) asked him what would he do if he stayed among people who delay their prayer until its time has passed. He asked what should he do and the Prophet replied that one should offer their prayer on time and then go about their business. If they are in a Masjid when Iqamah for that prayer is said, they should pray it as well. This hadith teaches us to be punctual with our prayers and not to delay them unnecessarily as it can lead us away from Allah's blessings. We must also remember that we are accountable for our actions so we must strive to fulfill our obligations towards Allah with utmost sincerity and dedication.
