Chapter: It is recommended to pray Zuhr at the beginning of its time when there is no intense heat
Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah (may peace he upon him) said: When it is very hot, say (the noon prayer) when the extreme heat passes away, for intensity of heat is from the exhalation of Hell.
Another hadith like this has been transmitted by Abu Huraira.
Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: When it is a hot day, (delay) the prayer till the extreme heat passes away, for the intensity of heat is from the exhalation of Hell.
Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: Refrain from saying (the noon prayer) till the extreme heat passes away, for the Intensity of heat is from the exhalation of Hell.
Hammam b. Munabbih reported: This is what Abu Huraira narrated to us from the Prophet and he transmitted some ahadith-one of them was that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: Let the heat become less severe before prayer, for the intensity of heat is from the exhalation of Hell.
Abu Dharr reported: The Mu'adhdbin (the announcer of the hour of prayer) of the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) called for the noon prayer. Upon this the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: Let it cool down, let it cool down, or he said: Wait, wait for the intensity of heat is from the exhalation of Hell. When the heat is intense, delay the prayer till it becomes cooler. Abu Dharr said: (We waited) till we saw the shadow of the mounds.
Jabir b. Samura reported: The Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) used to offer the noon prayer when the sun declined.
Khabbab reported: We complained to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) (the difficulty of) saying prayer on the intensely heated (ground or sand), but he paid no heed to our complaint.
Khabbab reported: We came to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and we complained to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) about (saying prayer) on the extremely heated ground (or sand), but he paid no heed to us. Zuhair said: I asked Abu Ishaq whether it was about the noon prayer. He said: Yes. I again said whether it concerned the (offering) of the noon (prayer) in earlier hours. He said: Yes. I said: Did it concern expediting it? He said: Yes.
Anas b. Malik reported: We used to say (the noonprayer) with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) in the intense heat, but when someone amongst us found it hard to place his forehead on the ground, he spread his cloth and prostrated on it.
