Narrated Muhammad bin `Amr

We asked Jabir bin `Abdullah about the prayers of the Prophet (ﷺ). He said, "He used to pray Zuhr prayer at midday, the `Asr when the sun was still hot, and the Maghrib after sunset (at its stated time). The `Isha was offered early if the people gathered, and used to be delayed if their number was less; and the morning prayer was offered when it was still dark. "
