331- وبه: ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: ”يتعاقبون فيكم ملائكة بالليل وملائكة بالنهار ويجتمعون فى صلاة الفجر وصلاة العصر ثم يعرج الذين باتوا فيكم فيسالهم وهو اعلم بهم كيف تركتم عبادي فيقولون تركناهم وهم يصلون وآتيناهم وهم يصلون“.
And with this same chain (it is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Angels come and go among you by night and by day, and they gather at the Fajr prayer and the Asr prayer. Then those who have spent the night among you ascend (in the morning), and (Allah the Exalted) asks them, though He knows best about them: 'In what state did you leave My servants?' They say: 'We left them while they were praying, and when we came to them, they were praying as well.'"

476- مالك عن هشام بن عروة عن ابيه عن حمران مولى عثمان بن عفان ان عثمان ابن عفان جلس على المقاعد، فجاء المؤذن فآذنه لصلاة العصر فدعا بماء فتوضا، ثم قال: والله، لاحدثنكم حديثا لولا آية فى كتاب الله ما حدثتكموه، ثم قال: سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: ”ما من امرئ يتوضا فيحسن وضوءه ثم يصلي الصلاة إلا غفر له ما بينه وبين الصلاة الاخرى حتى يصليها“. قال مالك: اراه يريد هذه الآية {واقم الصلاة طرفي النهار وزلفا من الليل إن الحسنات يذهبن السيئات ذلك ذكرى للذاكرين}.
It is narrated from Humran, the freed slave of Sayyiduna Uthman ibn Affan (may Allah be pleased with him), that Sayyiduna Uthman ibn Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) was sitting on an elevated seat when the muezzin came and informed him of the Asr prayer. Then he asked for water and performed ablution, then said: By Allah! I will tell you a hadith; if it were not for an ayah from the Book of Allah, I would never have told it to you. I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: Whoever performs ablution well and then offers prayer, the sins committed between that prayer and the next are forgiven.
Imam Malik said: I think this ayah is meant «وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِّنَ اللَّيْلِ ۚ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ ذِكْرَىٰ لِلذَّاكِرِينَ» [ھود: ١١٤] "And establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night. Indeed, good deeds do away with misdeeds. That is a reminder for those who remember."
