Hadith 646
Hadith.646 - Malik Al-Juhani asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) about the time for the Dhuhr (noon) prayer. Imam (as) replied: "When the sun declines (from its zenith), the time for both (Dhuhr and Asr) prayers begins. So, when you finish your Nawafil (supererogatory prayer), you may perform the Dhuhr prayer whenever you wish."
646 - سَأَلَ مَالِكٌ اَلْجُهَنِيُّ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنْ وَقْتِ اَلظُّهْرِ فَقَالَ «إِذَا زَالَتِ اَلشَّمْسُ فَقَدْ دَخَلَ وَقْتُ اَلصَّلاَتَيْنِ فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنْ سُبْحَتِكَ فَصَلِّ اَلظُّهْرَ مَتَى مَا بَدَا لَكَ.

Hadith 653
Hadith.653 – Zurarah asked Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) about the timing of the Dhuhr (noon) prayer. Imam (as) replied: "It is one arm's length (shadow) from the sun's decline, and the time for Asr (afternoon) is two arm's lengths from the time of Dhuhr, which is four feet from the sun's decline." He then added, "The wall of the Prophet’s Mosque (sw) was as high as a person's stature, and when a shadow reached one arm's length, the Dhuhr prayer would be performed, and when it reached two arm's lengths, the Asr prayer would be performed." He then asked: "
Do you know why the measure of one and two arm's lengths was set?" I said: "Why was that made so?" Imam (as) said: "It is for the sake of the supererogatory (nafilah) prayers. You may perform the supererogatory prayers from the sun's decline until the shadow reaches one arm's length; when it reaches one arm's length, you begin the obligatory prayer and leave the supererogatory prayer. When it reaches two arm's lengths, you begin the obligatory prayer and leave the supererogatory prayer."

He was asked: 'What does it mean to be deprived of one's family and wealth?' Imam (as) said: 'It means that he will have no family or wealth in Paradise.' He was asked: 'What does it mean to neglect it?' Imam (as) said: 'By Allah (swt), it means leaving it until the sun turns yellow or sets.'"

Hadith.662 - Abu Usama Zayd al-Shahham said: "One time, I climbed the mountain of Abu Qubais, and the people were praying Maghrib. I saw that the sun had not completely set; it had only disappeared behind the mountain from the view of the people. I met Abu Abdullah (as) Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) and informed him of this. Imam (as) said to me: 'Why did you do that? It was not a good action. You should perform the Maghrib prayer when you can no longer see the sun behind the mountain, whether it has set or gone down, unless it is obscured by a cloud or darkness that covers it. What concerns you is your eastern horizon and western horizon, and people are not required to investigate further.'"

Hadith 671
Hadith.671 - Abu Ja'far, Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), said: "It is more beloved to me to pray after the time (for prayer) has passed than to pray while I am in doubt about whether it is the correct time or before the time (for prayer) has entered."
671 - وَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «لَأَنْ أُصَلِّيَ بَعْدَ مَا يَمْضِي اَلْوَقْتُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ وَ أَنَا فِي شَكٍّ مِنَ اَلْوَقْتِ وَ قَبْلَ اَلْوَقْتِ.

أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «كَانَ اَلْمُؤَذِّنُ يَأْتِي اَلنَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ فِي اَلْحَرِّ فِي صَلاَةِ اَلظُّهْرِ فَيَقُولُ لَهُ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ «أَبْرِدْ أَبْرِدْ ».
