سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَقَالَ نَزَلَ بِهَا جَبْرَئِيلُ ( عليه السلام ) مُضَيَّقَةً إِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَصَلِّهَا قَالَ قُلْتُ إِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ صَلَّيْتُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ صَلَّيْتُهَا فَقَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) أَمَّا أَنَا إِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ لَمْ أَبْدَأْ بِشَيْءٍ قَبْلَ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ قَالَ الْقَاسِمُ وَ كَانَ ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ يُصَلِّي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ وَ هُوَ شَاكٌّ فِي الزَّوَالِ فَإِذَا اسْتَيْقَنَ الزَّوَالَ بَدَأَ بِالْمَكْتُوبَةِ فِي يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ.
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Al Qasim Bin Urwat, from Muhammad Bin Abu Umeyr who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> on the day of Friday. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Jibraeel<sup>sa</sup> came down with it, with a short time-span. When the sun (starts to) decline, so pray it’. He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘When the sun (starts to) decline, I should pray two <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span>, then pray it?’ So Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘As for myself<sup>asws</sup>, when the sun (starts to) decline, I<sup>asws</sup> do not begin with anything before the Obligatory (<span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>s)’. Al-Qasim (the narrator) said, ‘And Ibn Bukeyr (a narrator) used to pray two <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span> and he was doubting regarding the midday (point). So when he was convinced of the midday, he began with the Obligatory (<span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>s) during the day of Friday’.
