Sunan an-Nasa'i 1366

Isma‘il ibn Mas‘ud and Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-A‘la informed us; they said: Khalid—namely, Ibn al-Harith—narrated to us, from Hisham, from Yahya ibn Abi Kathir, from Abu Salamah ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman, from Jabir ibn ‘Abdullah, that on the day of the Battle of the Trench, after the sun had set, ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab began cursing the disbelievers of Quraysh and said, “Messenger of Allah, I could hardly pray before the sun was about to set.” The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “By Allah, I have not prayed it.” We went down with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to Buthan. He performed ablution for the prayer, and we performed ablution for it. He prayed the afternoon prayer after the sun had set, then prayed the sunset prayer afterward.
