وَعَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: كَانَ قَدْرُ صَلَاةِ رَسُول الله صلى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسلم الظّهْر فِي الصَّيْفِ ثَلَاثَةَ أَقْدَامٍ إِلَى خَمْسَةِ أَقْدَامٍ وَفِي الشِّتَاءِ خَمْسَةَ أَقْدَامٍ إِلَى سَبْعَةِ أَقْدَامٍ. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد وَالنَّسَائِيّ
Ibn Mas'ud Narrated from:
The extent of the shadow when God’s Messenger prayed the noon prayer was three to five feet in summer and five to seven feet in winter. Abu Dawud and Nasa’i transmitted it.
[1] Abu Dawud # 400, Nasa'i # 503.[2] A footnote in the original Urdu says that a length discourse by the author (of Mazdnir) has been omitted because one cannot benefit from it these days.Reference : Mishkat al-Masabih 586In-book reference : Book 4, Hadith 22
