Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, narrates this statement of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him: "When it is hot, perform the (Dhuhr) prayer at a cooler time, because the intensity of heat is part of the heat of Hell." The Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, mentioned that Hell complained to its Lord, so its Lord allowed it to breathe twice: one breath in the summer season, and one breath in the winter season.
