Is there any way to show in the konsole the time when a command was executed? Something like: user@pc:~$ ls 13:05
user@pc:~$ cd folder/ 13:06
user@pc:~$ cd .. 13:07

You'll need to change your prompt to contain a timestamp. This will depend on the shell you're using (probably bash), instead of the terminal emulator (konsole). Assuming you are using bash, alter your $PS1 environment variable to contain the output of a command that prints the time, such as date:
$ PS1="$PS1: $(date -R) >"
Using that as a starting point, design a prompt you like. man date to see the different ways you can print out the date/time.
After finding a command that gives you what you want, add it to your ~/.bashrc file to make it permanent.

This answer will work, but it looks like @Maxim gave a link in that comment that provides a more thorough explication of the solution. – Jon Carter Apr 05 '16 at 17:37
