The questioner : O Shaykh, what is the meaning of the hadith? Did he miss the congregation, or did he miss the entire prayer?
The Shaykh : The apparent meaning is the prayer. The intended meaning is the prayer, not that he is with the congregation. That is, if he delays its time until the sun turns yellow, then he has missed the 'Asr.
The questioner : Even if he has an excuse, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : No, no, if he has an excuse.
