سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) مَتَى تَجِبُ الْعَتَمَةُ قَالَ إِذَا غَابَ الشَّفَقُ وَ الشَّفَقُ الْحُمْرَةُ فَقَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ أَصْلَحَكَ اللَّهُ إِنَّهُ يَبْقَى بَعْدَ ذَهَابِ الْحُمْرَةِ ضَوْءٌ شَدِيدٌ مُعْتَرِضٌ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) إِنَّ الشَّفَقَ إِنَّمَا هُوَ الْحُمْرَةُ وَ لَيْسَ الضَّوْءُ مِنَ الشَّفَقِ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Abdullah Bin Muhammad Al hajjal, from Sa’albat Bin Maymoun, from Imran Bin Ali Al Halby who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘When is the darkness (Al-Isha <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>) Obligated?’ He<sup>asws</sup> the twilight disappears, and the twilight is the redness’. So Ubeydullah said objecting, ‘May Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Keep you<sup>asws</sup> well! Intense brightness tends to remain after the departure of the redness’. So Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The twilight, rather it is the redness, and the brightness is not from the twilight’.
