حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُهَاجِرًا أَبَا الْحَسَنِ، يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ زَيْدَ بْنَ وَهْبٍ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ أَذَّنَ مُؤَذِّنُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِالظُّهْرِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ أَبْرِدْ أَبْرِدْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ أَوْ قَالَ ‏"‏ انْتَظِرِ انْتَظِرْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّ شِدَّةَ الْحَرِّ مِنْ فَيْحِ جَهَنَّمَ فَإِذَا اشْتَدَّ الْحَرُّ فَأَبْرِدُوا عَنِ الصَّلاَةِ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ حَتَّى رَأَيْنَا فَىْءَ التُّلُولِ ‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna narrated to me: Muhammad ibn Ja‘far narrated to us: Shu‘bah narrated to us. He said: I heard Muhajir Abu al-Hasan narrating that he heard Zayd ibn Wahb narrate from Abu Dharr, who said: The caller of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the call for noon. The Prophet said, “Wait until it cools; wait until it cools”—or he said, “Wait; wait.” He said, “The intensity of the heat comes from the blast of Hell. When the heat is intense, delay the prayer until it cools.” Abu Dharr said: We waited until we saw the shadows of the hills.
