فَأَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلصَّلْتِ عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلَهُ سَائِلٌ عَنْ وَقْتِ اَلْمَغْرِبِ قَالَ« إِنَّ اَللَّهَ تَعَالَى يَقُولُ فِي كِتَابِهِ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ« فَلَمّٰا جَنَّ عَلَيْهِ اَللَّيْلُ رَأىٰ كَوْكَباً» فَهَذَا أَوَّلُ اَلْوَقْتِ وَآخِرُ ذَلِكَ غَيْبُوبَةُ اَلشَّفَقِ وَأَوَّلُ وَقْتِ اَلْعِشَاءِ ذَهَابُ اَلْحُمْرَةِ وَآخِرُ وَقْتِهَا إِلَى غَسَقِ اَللَّيْلِ يَعْنِي نِصْفَ اَللَّيْلِ»

Translation

As for what was narrated by Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Ali ibn al-Salt, from Bakr ibn Muhammad, from Abu Abdillah (a.s), who said: A man asked Him (a.s) about the time of Maghrib. Imam (a.s) said: “Indeed, Allah (swt), the Exalted, says in His Book regarding Ibrahim (a.s), peace be upon him: ‘So when the night enveloped him, he saw a star…’ (Surah An'am 6:76), this is the beginning of the time. And the end of that is the disappearance of the twilight. The beginning of the time of ‘Isha’ is the fading of the redness, and its end is until the darkness of the night, meaning midnight.”

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