خَمْسُ صَلَوَاتٍ كَتَبَهُنَّ اللَّهُ عَلَى الْعِبَادِ، مَنْ أَحْسَنَ وُضُوءَهُنَّ وَصَلاَّهُنَّ لِوَقْتِهِنَّ كَانَ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَهْدٌ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ لَهُ

English

Five prayers Allah has prescribed for His servants. Whoever performs their ablution well and prays them at their times has a covenant with Allah that He will forgive him.

Scholarly note

The Malikis in the Mudawwana treat the phrase 'at their times' as evidence that delaying a prayer without excuse is a major sin.
