(Book 1, Hadith 3) #35060
The Importance of Punctuality in Prayer

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the importance of being punctual in prayer and how the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) demonstrated this by setting an example.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam that Ata ibn Yasar said, "A man came to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and asked him about the time of the subh prayer. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, did not answer him, but in the morning he prayed subh at first light. The following morning he prayed subh when it was much lighter, and then said, 'Where is the man who was asking about the time of the prayer?' The man replied, 'Here I am, Messenger of Allah'. He said,'The time is between these two'. "
وَحَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ وَقْتِ صَلاَةِ الصُّبْحِ قَالَ فَسَكَتَ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ مِنَ الْغَدِ صَلَّى الصُّبْحَ حِينَ طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ ثُمَّ صَلَّى الصُّبْحَ مِنَ الْغَدِ بَعْدَ أَنْ أَسْفَرَ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏"‏ أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنْ وَقْتِ الصَّلاَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ هَا أَنَا ذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَا بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ وَقْتٌ

Be punctual with your prayers and other obligations you have in life

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith highlights the importance of punctuality when it comes to prayer. It is narrated that a man asked the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ about when he should pray subh and instead of answering him directly, he set an example by praying at first light one day and then much lighter on another day. He then asked for the man who was asking about prayer time and told him that it was between these two times. This shows us how important it is to be punctual with our prayers as well as other obligations we have in life. We should strive to be on time for all our commitments so that we can fulfill them properly and not miss out on any opportunities or blessings due to tardiness or negligence.
