Arabic text

وَ عَنْهُ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ:« إِنَّ مِنَ اَلْأُمُورِ أُمُوراً مُضَيَّقَةً وَ أُمُوراً مُوَسَّعَةً وَ إِنَّ اَلْوَقْتَ وَقْتَانِ اَلصَّلاَةُ مِمَّا فِيهِ اَلسَّعَةُ فَرُبَّمَا عَجَّلَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ وَ رُبَّمَا أَخَّرَ إِلاَّ صَلاَةَ اَلْجُمُعَةِ فَإِنَّ صَلاَةَ اَلْجُمُعَةِ مِنَ اَلْأَمْرِ اَلْمُضَيَّقِ إِنَّمَا لَهَا وَقْتٌ وَاحِدٌ حِينَ تَزُولُ وَ وَقْتُ اَلْعَصْرِ يَوْمَ اَلْجُمُعَةِ وَقْتُ اَلظُّهْرِ فِي سَائِرِ اَلْأَيَّامِ»

Translation

And from him, from Ibn Abi Umayr, from Umar ibn Udhaynah, from Zurarah, he said: I heard Abu Ja’far (a.s), peace be upon him, say: “Indeed, among matters are those that are restricted and those that are expansive, and indeed, time is of two types. Prayer is among those matters in which there is flexibility. So sometimes the Messenger of Allah (swt), may Allah (swt) bless him and his family, would pray early, and sometimes He (saws) would delay except for the Friday prayer (Salat Al Jumu'ah), for the Friday prayer (Salat Al Jumu'ah) is among the restricted matters. It has only one time, which is when the sun passes the meridian (zawal), and the time of Asr on the day of Friday is the same as the time of Dhuhr on the rest of the days.”
