( أَخْبَرَنَاهُ ) أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، أَنَا أَبُو مُحَمَّدِ بْنُ حَيَّانَ، أَنْبَأَ ابْنُ أَبِي عَاصِمٍ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ أَبُو يُوسُفَ، نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ وَاصِلِ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ الْأُسْوَارِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ:
أَلَا إِنَّ خِيَارَ أُمَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ الَّذِينَ يُرَاعُونَ الشَّمْسَ، وَالْقَمَرَ، وَالنُّجُومَ لِمَوَاقِيتِ الصَّلَاةِ
