Stern warning against missing the `Asr prayer

باب التَّغْلِيظِ فِي تَفْوِيتِ صَلاَةِ الْعَصْرِ ‏

Sahih Muslim 626a
وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ ‏ ‏.‏
"‏ الَّذِي تَفُوتُهُ صَلاَةُ الْعَصْرِ كَأَنَّمَا وُتِرَ أَهْلَهُ وَمَالَهُ ‏"
Ibn Umar reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

He who misses the afternoon prayer, it is as though he has been deprived of his family and his property.
