It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever misses the Asr prayer, it is as if all his wealth and family have been taken away from him while he looks on."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mahmood bin Rabi’ al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) that indeed Sayyiduna ‘Itban bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) used to lead his people in prayer and he was blind. He said to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): I am blind and (sometimes) there is darkness, rain, and flooding. O Messenger of Allah! Please pray at some place in my house so that I may make it a place of prayer. He said: Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came and said:“Where do you wish me to pray?”He (‘Itban, may Allah be pleased with him) pointed to a place in the house, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led the prayer there.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When the iqamah for prayer is called, do not come running, but come with calmness. Then, whatever (part of the prayer) you catch, perform it, and whatever you miss, complete it (afterwards), because whoever intends to go for prayer is already considered to be in prayer."
