Riyad as-Salihin: Book 8, Hadith 61

Jarir bin ‘Abdullah Al-Bajali (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) when he looked at the full moon and observed, “You will see your Rubb in the Hereafter as you see this moon having no difficulty in seeing it. So try your best to perform the prayers before the rising of the sun and that before its setting.”.

– وعن جرير بن عبد الله البجلي رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ كنا عند النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فنظر إلى القمر ليلة البدر فقال‏:‏ ‏”‏إنكم سترون ربكم كما ترون هذا القمر، لاتضامون في رؤيته، فإن استطعتم أن لا تغلبو على صلاة قبل طلوع الشمس، وقبل غروبها فافعلوا‏”‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏وفي رواية‏:‏ ‏”‏فنظر إلى القمر ليلة أربع عشرة‏”‏‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
