وَ رَوَى سَعْدٌ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَلْجَبَّارِ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ وَقْتِ صَلاَةِ اَلظُّهْرِ فِي اَلْقَيْظِ فَلَمْ يُجِبْنِي فَلَمَّا أَنْ كَانَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ لِعَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ هِلاَلٍ« إِنَّ زُرَارَةَ سَأَلَنِي عَنْ وَقْتِ صَلاَةِ اَلظُّهْرِ فِي اَلْقَيْظِ فَلَمْ أُخْبِرْهُ فَحَرِجْتُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَأَقْرِئْهُ مِنِّي اَلسَّلاَمَ وَ قُلْ لَهُ إِذَا كَانَ ظِلُّكَ مِثْلَكَ فَصَلِّ اَلظُّهْرَ وَ إِذَا كَانَ ظِلُّكَ مِثْلَيْكَ فَصَلِّ اَلْعَصْرَ»

Translation

Sa’d narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from Muhammad ibn Abd al-Jabbar, from al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Faddal, from Abdillah ibn Bukayr, from Zurarah, who said: I asked Abu Abdillah (a.s) about the time of the Dhuhr prayer during intense heat, but He (a.s) did not answer me. Then, sometime afterward, Imam (a.s) said to ‘Amr ibn Sa’id ibn Hilal: “Zurarah asked me about the time of the Dhuhr prayer during intense heat, and I did not inform him, and I felt uneasy about that. So convey my greetings to him and say to him: ‘When your shadow becomes equal to your height, then pray Dhuhr; and when your shadow becomes twice your height, then pray ‘Asr.’”

Translation: Haydar Ali Shaykh ibn Muhammad — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
