Contents Salat in its Prescribed Time from the Masumeen Giving Preference to Salat in its Prescribed Time to all Other Work Awaiting the Time of Salat Delaying the Time of Salat Salat in its Prescribed Time from the Masumeen 5) Anas ibn Malik said, “Normally, whenever the Prophet travelled if the time for Salat would set in, he would stop right there and recite his Salat.” 6) Imam Hasan ibn ‘Ali al-Mujtaba (peace be upon him) said: “When my father ‘Ali (peace be upon him) was struck with the sword, he turned towards me and said,’ O’ my son!

I advise you about the Salat in its appointed time!” 7) Umm al-Hamidah, the wife of the 6th Imam (peace be upon him) narrated to Abu Basir – who was blind – when he came to pay condolences to her on the death of the Holy Imam and said, “Abu Basir you were not here and did not witness the last moments of the Imam’ s life, but it was a startling time.” Abu Basir questioned,’ Why?’ She said,’ The Imam was in such a state that he was pretty much unconscious.

Then he opened his eyes and said, “Go and tell all the family to come and gather around me.” I obeyed the Imam’s command and asked everyone to come. When everyone had gathered, the Imam who was semi-unconscious, and was in the last few moments of his life opened his eyes, turned to the family members and said only one thing: لَنْ تَنَالُ شَفاعَتُنَا مَنِ اسْتَخَفَّ بِالصَّلاَةِ؛ Our intercession will never reach that person who takes his Salat lightly.

After saying this, the Imam (peace be upon him) left this world for his heavenly abode. 8) At the time of Salat, Imam Hasan al-‘Askari (peace be upon him) would stop any work he was doing and would not consider anything to be more important than the Salat.
