Chapter 31: The recommendation to delay Zuhr (until it has cooled down) in severe heat for one who finds it too hot in route to join the congregation.
Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah (may peace he upon him) said:
When it is very hot, say (the noon prayer) when the extreme heat passes away, for intensity of heat is from the exhalation of Hell. (Sahih Muslim Book 5 – Hadith 229)
Another hadith like this has been transmitted by Abu Huraira. (Sahih Muslim Book 5 – Hadith 230)
Abu Huraira reported:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: When it is a hot day, (delay) the prayer till the extreme heat passes away, for the intensity of heat is from the exhalation of Hell.
Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Refrain from saying (the noon prayer) till the extreme heat passes away, for the Intensity of heat is from the exhalation of Hell.
Abu Huraira narrated this hadith from the Messenger of Allah (may peace be up on him) by another chain of transmitters. (Sahih Muslim Book 5 – Hadith 231)
Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
This heat is from the exhalation of Hell-fire, so delay the prayer till it is cool. (Sahih Muslim Book 5 – Hadith 232)
Hammam b. Munabbih reported:
This is what Abu Huraira narrated to us from the Prophet and he transmitted some ahadith-one of them was that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Let the heat become less severe before prayer, for the intensity of heat is from the exhalation of Hell. (Sahih Muslim Book 5 – Hadith 233)
Abu Dharr reported:
The Mu'adhdbin (the announcer of the hour of prayer) of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) called for the noon prayer. Upon this the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Let it cool down, let it cool down, or he said: Wait, wait for the intensity of heat is from the exhalation of Hell. When the heat is intense, delay the prayer till it becomes cooler. Abu Dharr said: (We waited) till we saw the shadow of the mounds. (Sahih Muslim Book 5 – Hadith 234)
Abu Huraira reported:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: The Fire made a complaint before the Lord saying." O Lord, some parts of mine have consumed the others." So it was allowed to take two exhalations, one exhalation in winter and the other exhalation in summer. That is why you find extreme heat (in summer) and extreme cold (in winter). (Sahih Muslim Book 5 – Hadith 235)
Abu Huraira reported:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: When it is hot, make delay (in the noon prayer) till it cools down, for the intensity of beat is from the Exhalation of Hell; and he also mentioned that Hellfire complained to the Lord (about the congested atmosphere) and so it was permitted to take two exhalations during the whole year, one exhalation during the winter and one exhalation during the summer. (Sahih Muslim Book 5 – Hadith 236)
Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
The Fire said to the Lord: O Lord! some parts of mine have consumed the others, so allow me to exhale (in order to find some relief from this congestion). It was granted permission to take two exhalations, one exhalation during the winter and the other exhalation during the summer So whatever you perceive in the form of intense cold or hurting cold is from the exhalation of Hell. And whatever you perceive in the form of extreme heat or intense beat is from the exhalation of Hell. (Sahih Muslim Book 5 – Hadith 237)
