Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيَّ يَقُولُ ثَلَاثُ سَاعَاتٍ كَانَ يَنْهَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ نُصَلِّيَ فِيهِنَّ أَوْ أَنْ نَقْبُرَ فِيهِنَّ مَوْتَانَا حِينَ تَطْلُعُ الشَّمْسُ بَازِغَةً حَتَّى تَرْتَفِعَ وَحِينَ يَقُومُ قَائِمُ الظَّهِيرَةِ حَتَّى تَمِيلَ الشَّمْسُ وَحِينَ تَضَيَّفُ لِلْغُرُوبِ حَتَّى تَغْرُبَ.
English Translation
Waki' narrated to us, from Musa ibn 'Ali, from his father, who said: I heard 'Uqbah ibn 'Amir al-Juhani say: There were three times during which the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, used to forbid us to pray or to bury our dead: when the sun rises, gleaming, until it is fully up; when the sun stands at its zenith at midday, until it declines; and when the sun draws near to setting, until it sets.
