8ـ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الأشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زَيْدٍ الشَّحَّامِ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) عَنْ وَقْتِ الْمَغْرِبِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ جَبْرَئِيلَ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) أَتَى النَّبِيَّ (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) لِكُلِّ صَلاَةٍ بِوَقْتَيْنِ غَيْرَ صَلاَةِ الْمَغْرِبِ فَإِنَّ وَقْتَهَا وَاحِدٌ وَوَقْتَهَا وُجُوبُهَا.
8. Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad al-Ash’ariy has narrated from ‘Abd Allah ibn ‘Amir from Ali ibn Mahziyar from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Hariz from Zayd al-Shahham who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about the time of al-Maghrib. He (the Imam) said that Jibril brought to the Holy prophet, two timings for every Salah (prayer) except al-Maghrib Salah (prayer). The time for al-Maghrib is when it becomes obligatory.’”
