The Times of Prayer
Muwatta Malik #14
كتاب وقوت الصلاة
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ يَحْيَى الْمَازِنِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي سَلِيطٍ، أَنَّ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ، صَلَّى الْجُمُعَةَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَصَلَّى الْعَصْرَ بِمَلَلٍ. قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَذَلِكَ لِلتَّهْجِيرِ وَسُرْعَةِ السَّيْرِ.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Amr ibn Yahya ibn Yahya al- Mazini from Ibn Abi Salit that Uthman ibn Affan prayed jumua in Madina and asr in Malal (a place seventeen miles from Madina).
Malik commented, “That was by praying jumua just past midday and then travelling fast.”
