Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى ـ هُوَ ابْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ ـ عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، أَنَّ أَبَا الْمَلِيحِ، حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ بُرَيْدَةَ فِي يَوْمٍ ذِي غَيْمٍ فَقَالَ بَكِّرُوا بِالصَّلاَةِ فَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " مَنْ تَرَكَ صَلاَةَ الْعَصْرِ حَبِطَ عَمَلُهُ ".
Translation
Mu‘adh bin Fadala narrated to us: Hisham narrated to us, from Yahya—meaning Ibn Abi Kathir—from Abu Qilaba, that Abu al-Malih narrated to him: We were with Buraida on a cloudy day. He said, ‘Pray early, for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Whoever abandons the afternoon prayer, his deeds come to nothing.”’
