موطأ مالك

وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ دَخَلْنَا عَلَى أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ بَعْدَ الظُّهْرِ فَقَامَ يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنْ صَلاَتِهِ ذَكَرْنَا تَعْجِيلَ الصَّلاَةِ أَوْ ذَكَرَهَا فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ " تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ تِلْكَ صَلاَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ يَجْلِسُ أَحَدُهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا اصْفَرَّتِ الشَّمْسُ وَكَانَتْ بَيْنَ قَرْنَىِ الشَّيْطَانِ - أَوْ عَلَى قَرْنِ الشَّيْطَانِ - قَامَ فَنَقَرَ أَرْبَعًا لاَ يَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ فِيهَا إِلاَّ قَلِيلاً " .


Yahya related to me from Malik that al-Ala ibn Abd ar-Rahmansaid, "We visited Anas ibn Malik after dhuhr and he stood up andprayed asr. When he had finished his prayer, we mentioned doingprayers early in their time, or he mentioned it, and he said that hehad heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant himpeace, say, the prayer of the hypocrites, the prayer of thehypocrites, the prayer of the hypocrites is that one of them sitsuntil the sun becomes yellow and is between the horns of Shaytan, oron the horn of Shaytan, and then gets up and rattles off four rakas,hardly remembering Allah in them at all.' "
