Alaa ibn Abdur Rahman (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once we were performing the Zuhr prayer when we came to the service of Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him). Shortly after, he stood up to perform the Asr prayer. When he finished the prayer, we said to him, "Asr prayer so early?" He replied, "I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'That is the prayer of the hypocrite, that the hypocrite keeps delaying the prayer until, when the sun is between the two horns of Satan, he stands up to pray and pecks four times, remembering Allah very little in it.'"
