أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حُسَيْنٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي وَهْبُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ

"Jibril, peace be upon him, came to the Prophet ﷺ when the sun had passed its zenith and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray Zuhr when the sun has passed its zenith.' Then he waited until a man's shadow was equal to his height. Then he came to him for 'Asr and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray 'Asr.' Then he waited until the sunset, then he came to him and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray Maghrib.' So he got up and prayed it when the sun had set. Then he waited until the twilight disappeared, then he came to him and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray 'Isha'.' So he got up and prayed it. Then he came to him when dawn broke and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.' So he got up and prayed Subh.' So he got up and prayed Subh. Then he came to him the next day when a man's shadow was equal to his height, and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.' So he prayed Zuhr. Then Jibril came to him when a man's shadow was equal to twice his length and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.' So he prayed 'Asr. Then he came to him for Maghrib when the sun set, at exactly the same time as the day before, and said: 'Get up, O Muhammad, and pray.' So he prayed Maghrib. Then he came to him for 'Isha' when the first third of the night had passed, and said: 'Get up and pray.' So he prayed 'Isha'. Then he came to him for Subh when it had become very bright, and said: 'Get up and pray.' So he prayed Subh. Then he said: 'The times of prayer one between those two (limits).'"

- Aḥmad b. Ḥanbal
الحسين فهو أخو أبي جعفر محمد بن علي وحديثه الذي روي في المواقيت ليس بالمنكر لأنه قد وافقه على بعض صفاته غيره
machine translationAs for al-Ḥusayn, he is the brother of Abū Jaʿfar Muḥammad b. ʿAlī, and his hadith that is narrated on the prayer times is not rejected (munkar), because others agreed with him on some of its features.

سكت عنه مصححا له
machine translationHe remained silent about it, deeming it authentic (ṣaḥīḥ).
in سنن النسائي, p. 526 - Ibn al-Qaṭṭān
يجب أن يكون مرسلا لأن جابرا لم يذكر من حدثه بذلك وهو لم يشاهد ذلك صبيحة الإسراء لما علم من أنه أنصاري إنما صحب بالمدينة
machine translationIt must be a mursal report, because Jābir did not mention who narrated it to him, and he did not witness that on the morning after the Night Journey, since it is known that he was one of the Anṣār who only accompanied the Prophet in Medina.
