506 — Suwayd ibn Nasr informed us, saying: Abdullah informed us, from Malik, who said: Al-Zuhri and Ishaq ibn Abdullah narrated to me, from Anas, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray the afternoon prayer (Asr), and then a person would go to Quba'. One of them said: "He would come to them while they were praying." And the other said: "While the sun was still high."

============================================
It was also recorded by Al-Bukhari (545) and Al-Tirmidhi (159) from Qutaybah ibn Sa'id, with this chain of transmission.
It was also recorded by Ahmad (24095), Al-Bukhari (546), Muslim (611): (168), and Ibn Majah (683) via Sufyan ibn 'Uyaynah; Ahmad (24554) via Al-Awza'i; (25636) via Ma'mar; Al-Bukhari (522), Muslim (611): (168), Abu Dawud (407), and Ibn Hibban following (1450) via Malik; and Muslim (611): (169) and Ibn Hibban (1521) via Yunus — all five of them from Ibn Shihab al-Zuhri, with the same chain.
The wording of Malik's narration is: "While the sun was in her chamber before it had appeared." The wording of Ma'mar's narration is: "Before the sun had come out from her two chambers, rising." Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar said in "Fath al-Bari" 2/25 regarding the meaning of his statement "before it had appeared": i.e., before it had risen... The gist of it is that what is meant by the sun's "appearing" is its emergence from the chamber, and by the "appearing" of the shade is its spreading within the chamber. There is no discrepancy between the two narrations, because the spreading of the shade only occurs after the sun has come out.
It was also recorded by Ahmad (25685), Al-Bukhari (544) and (3103), and Muslim (611) (170) via Hisham ibn 'Urwah, from his father, with the same chain.

(1) Its chain of transmission is sound. Abdullah is Ibn al-Mubarak, and Al-Zuhri is Muhammad ibn Muslim ibn Shihab.
It appears in Malik's "Muwatta" 1/8-9 from Ibn Shihab and Ishaq ibn Abdullah (separately), and its wording in both is as will follow.
It was also recorded by Al-Bukhari (551) from Abdullah ibn Yusuf, and Muslim (621): (193) from Yahya ibn Yahya — both from Malik, from Ibn Shihab, from Anas ibn Malik, with the same chain, and in it: "He would come to them while the sun was still high."
It was also recorded by Al-Bukhari (548) from Abdullah ibn Maslamah, and Muslim (621): (194) from Yahya ibn Yahya — both from Malik, from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi Talhah, from Anas, who said: "We used to pray the afternoon prayer, then a man would go out to Banu 'Amr ibn 'Awf and find them praying the afternoon prayer."
Al-Hafiz said in "Al-Fath" 2/27-28: His statement "to Banu 'Amr ibn 'Awf" means to Quba', because it was their dwellings. The author's (i.e., Al-Bukhari's) inclusion of this hadith indicates that he held the view that a Companion's statement "We used to do such-and-such" is considered a marfu' (attributed) report, even if he did not explicitly attribute it to the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)... =
