حديث جَرِيرٍ، قَالَ: كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَنَظَرَ إِلَى الْقَمَر لَيْلَةً، يَعْنِي الْبَدْرَ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّكُمْ سَتَرَوْنَ رَبَّكُمْ كَمَا تَرَوْنَ هذَا الْقَمَرَ، لَا تُضَامُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَتِهِ، فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَنْ لَا تُغْلَبُوا عَلَى صَلَاةٍ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ وَقَبْلَ غُرُوبِهَا فَافْعَلُوا ثُمَّ قَرَأَ: (وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ وَقَبْلَ الْغُرُوبِ).
Jarir Narrated from:
We were with the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and he looked at the moon — on a full-moon night and said, "Certainly you will see your Lord as you see this moon, and you will have no trouble in seeing Him. So if you can avoid missing (through sleep or business, etc.) a Salât (prayer) before the sunrise ( Fajr) and a Salât before sunset ( Asr) you must do so.'He then recited Allâh's Statement: "And glorify the Praises of your Lord, before the rising of the sun and before (its) setting." (V.50:39)( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 529, Vol. 1)
