Times of the Prayers: Zuhr, 'Asr, Maghrib, and 'Isha'.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : The time for Zuhr: from the sun passing its zenith until the shadow of every object becomes equal to its length.
The time for 'Asr: from that time until the sun turns yellow, by choice, and until sunset, by necessity.
The time for Maghrib: from sunset until the disappearance of the twilight, which is the redness that follows sunset. The time for 'Isha': from the disappearance of the twilight until the middle of the night.
The four times have ended, each connected to the next.
The first?
The student: From the sun passing its zenith until the shadow of every object becomes equal to its length; this is the Zuhr prayer.

The Shaykh : Well done, rest.
The second? Yes, that is right.
From when the shadow of every object becomes equal to its length until sunset by necessity, or until the sun turns yellow by choice.

The Shaykh : Good, the third time?
The student: From sunset.

The Shaykh : From sunset until the disappearance of the red twilight.
Good, the fourth?
The student: From the disappearance of the red twilight until the middle of the night.

The Shaykh : Well done.
These four times are connected to one another, and the hadith of 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr ibn al-'As, which is established in Sahih Muslim, indicates them.
