عن بريدة بن الحصيب رضي الله عنه أنه قال: بَكِّرُوا بِصَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ، فَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ تَرَكَ صَلَاةَ الْعَصْرِ فَقَدْ حَبِطَ عَمَلُهُ».
Kutoka kwa Buraida -Radhi za Allah ziwe juu yake- yakuwa amesema: Iswalini mapema swala ya Lasiri, kwani Mtume -Rehema na amani ziwe juu yake- amesema: "Atakayeacha swala ya Lasiri basi yameporomoka matendo yake".
Buraydah ibn al-Hasīb (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Offer the ‘Asr prayer early, for the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever abandons the ‘Asr prayer, his deeds will be rendered worthless."
