Alaa ibn Abdur Rahman (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once we offered the Zuhr prayer and then went to the service of Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him). Shortly after, he stood up to offer 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 of Allah be upon him) say: 'That is the prayer of the hypocrite, that the hypocrite keeps delaying the prayer until the sun is between the two horns of Satan, then he stands up and pecks out four pecks (prays hastily), and remembers Allah very little in it.'"
