Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ جَرِيرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَجَلِيِّ، قَالَ كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَنَظَرَ إِلَى الْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّكُمْ سَتُعْرَضُونَ عَلَى رَبِّكُمْ فَتَرَوْنَهُ كَمَا تَرَوْنَ هَذَا الْقَمَرَ لاَ تُضَامُونَ فِي رُؤْيَتِهِ فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَنْ لاَ تُغْلَبُوا عَلَى صَلاَةٍ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ وَصَلاَةٍ قَبْلَ غُرُوبِهَا فَافْعَلُوا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَرَأََ‏:‏ ‏‏(‏سَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ وَقَبْلَ الْغُرُوبِ ‏)‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏

Translation

Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.

Jarir ibn Abdullah al-Bajali reported: ‘We were sitting with the Prophet when he looked at the full moon and said, “You will be brought before your Lord and see Him as you see this moon, without difficulty. If you can avoid being overcome by missing a prayer before sunrise and a prayer before sunset, then do so.”’ Then he recited: ‘Glorify your Lord with praise before sunrise and before sunset.’ Abu Isa graded this hadith hasan sahih.

Notes and open questions — unreviewed
  • The Arabic names the two prayers by their times—before sunrise and before sunset—without naming them here; this wording is retained.

  • The English witness omits ‘before sunrise’ from the Qur'anic quotation, which is included here to match the Arabic source text.
