حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ التِّرْمِذِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَشْجَعِيُّ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ، عَنْ عَبِيدَةَ السَّلْمَانِيِّ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كُنَّا نُرَاهَا الْفَجْرَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ هِيَ صَلَاةُ الْعَصْرِ يَعْنِي صَلَاةَ الْوُسْطَى.
