Muwatta Malik #14
The Times of Prayer
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ يَحْيَى الْمَازِنِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي سَلِيطٍ، أَنَّ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ، صَلَّى الْجُمُعَةَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَصَلَّى الْعَصْرَ بِمَلَلٍ . قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَذَلِكَ لِلتَّهْجِيرِ وَسُرْعَةِ السَّيْرِ .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Amr ibn Yahya ibn Yahya al-
Mazini from Ibn Abi Salit that Uthman ibn Affan prayed jumua in Madina
and asr in Malal (a place seventeen miles from Madina).
Malik
commented, "That was by praying jumua just past midday and then
travelling fast."
