Musnad Aḥmad 176
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا مِسْحَاجٌ الضَّبِّيُّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ: «كُنَّا إِذَا كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَفَرٍ، فَقُلْنَا: زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ أَوْ لَمْ تَزُلْ، صَلَّى الظُّهْرَ ثُمَّ ارْتَحَلَ».

Chain: Aḥmad → Abū Muʿāwiya → Misḥāj al-Ḍabbī → Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) → the Prophet ﷺ. Rijāl: (1) Abū Muʿāwiya Muḥammad ibn Khāzim al-Ḍarīr al-Kūfī: thiqa, d. 195 AH. (2) Misḥāj al-Ḍabbī: maqbūl, that is, accepted where corroborated. (3) Anas ibn Mālik: Companion, d. ca. 93 AH. Takhrīj: Al-Bukhārī (1000); cf. Muslim (703); Aḥmad (12111). The report concerns the Prophet's ﷺ practice on the road of praying Ẓuhr at the very onset of its time and then breaking camp, so that travel did not push the prayer back. The Companions' uncertainty as to whether the sun had passed its zenith is a candid detail of desert observation, and the reports on combining the prayers while traveling are read alongside this one by the jurists.
