فَقَالَ لِي بَكِّرْ بِالْغَدَاةِ فَوَافَيْتُ وَ اسْتَقْبَلَنِي وَ مَعَهُ شَابٌّ مِنْ أَحْسَنِ النَّاسِ وَجْهاً وَ أَطْيَبِهِمْ رَائِحَةً بِهَيْئَةِ التُّجَّارِ وَ فِي كُمِّهِ شَيْءٌ كَهَيْئَةِ التُّجَّارِ He said to me, ‘Come early morning for the breakfast. I arrived and he welcomed me, and there was a youth with him from the most handsome face of the people and their most pleasant of aromas, in the form of traders, and in his -ajfj sleeve was something like a marking of the traders.
فَلَمَّا نَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ دَنَوْتُ مِنَ الْعَمْرِيِّ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيَّ فَعَدَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَ سَأَلْتُهُ فَأَجَابَنِي عَنْ كُلِّ مَا أَرَدْتُ ثُمَّ مَرَّ لِيَدْخُلَ الدَّارَ وَ كَانَتْ مِنَ الدُّورِ الَّتِي لَا نَكْتَرِثُ لَهَا فَقَالَ الْعَمْرِيُّ إِذْ أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَسْأَلَ سَلْ فَإِنَّكَ لَا تَرَاهُ بَعْدَ ذَا When I looked at him, I went near Al-Amry. He -ajfj gestured to me, so I turned towards him -ajfj and asked him -ajfj . He -ajfj answered me about all what I wanted.
Then he -ajfj went to enter the room, and it was from the rooms we (normally) pay any attention to it. Al-Amry said, ‘Al-Amry said, ‘When you want to ask, ask, for you will not see him -ajfj afterward this’. فَذَهَبْتُ لِأَسْأَلَ فَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ وَ دَخَلَ الدَّارَ وَ مَا كَلَّمَنِي بِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ أَنْ قَالَ مَلْعُونٌ مَلْعُونٌ مَنْ أَخَّرَ الْعِشَاءَ إِلَى أَنْ تَشْتَبِكَ النُّجُومُ مَلْعُونٌ مَلْعُونٌ مَنْ أَخَّرَ الْغَدَاةَ إِلَى أَنْ تَنْقَضِيَ النُّجُومُ وَ دَخَلَ الدَّارَ.
I went to ask, but he -ajfj did not listen and entered the room, and did not speak to me more than saying: ‘Accursed! Accursed is the one who delays the ‘Isha’ until the stars cluster. Accursed! Accursed is the one who delays the early morning until the stars disappear!’ And he -ajfj entered the room’’.
[26] لفظ« العشاء» مصحف و الصحيح« المغرب» و ذلك لان وقته المسنون يبتدئ من سقوط الحمرة الى سقوط الشفق المساوق لاشتباك النجوم فمن أخر صلاة المغرب عن اشتباك النجوم خالف السنة كما أن وقت صلاة الصبح المسنون يبتدئ من الغلس الى ظهور الشفق المساوق لانقضاء النجوم فمن أخرها الى انقضاء النجوم قد خالف السنة.
📌Note: The word ‘Al-Isha’ is distorted (wrong), and the correct is ‘Al-Maghrib’, and that is because its timing is legislated as beginning from the fall of the redness to the fall of the twilight, leading to the clustering of the stars.
