حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدَّرَاوَرْدِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنِي زَيْدُ بْنُ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، وَعَنْ بُسْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، وَعَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، يُحَدِّثُونَهُ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ " مَنْ أَدْرَكَ مِنَ الْعَصْرِ رَكْعَةً قَبْلَ أَنْ تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَهَا وَمَنْ أَدْرَكَ مِنَ الصُّبْحِ رَكْعَةً قَبْلَ أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَهَا " .

Muhammad ibn al-Sabbah narrated to us: 'Abd al-'Aziz ibn Muhammad al-Darawardi narrated to us: Zayd ibn Aslam informed me, from 'Ata' ibn Yasar, from Busr ibn Sa'id, and from al-A'raj, who related to him from Abu Hurayrah, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Whoever catches one rak'ah of the 'Asr prayer before the sun sets has caught it; and whoever catches one rak'ah of the Fajr prayer before the sun rises has caught it.’
