And he used to recite in the first two rak'ahs of 'Asr prayer, making the first rak'ah longer and the second shorter." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 976)

[Machine] That the Prophet of Allah ﷺ used to lead us in prayer and would recite in the noon and afternoon prayers in the first two cycles (rak'ahs) two chapters from the Qur'an, then a verse on occasion, and in the last two cycles, he would recite the same chapter. He would prolong the recitation in the first rak'ah of the noon prayer and the afternoon prayer.  

أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يُصَلِّي بِنَا فَيَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ فِي الْأُولَيَيْنِ بِسُورَتَيْنِ وَأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ وَكَانَ يُسْمِعُنَاالْأَحْيَانَ الْآيَةَ وَفِي الْآخِرَتَيْنِ بِأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ وَكَانَ يُطِيلُ فِي أَوَّلِ رَكْعَةٍ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ وَصَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ

He would prolong the recitation in the first unit more than the second unit, and the same for the Asr prayer and the Fajr prayer. 'Affan and Abaan bin Yazid Al-Atar said the same.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ بِأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ وَسُورَتَيْنِ وَكَانَ يُسْمِعُنَا الْأَحْيَانَ الْآيَةَ قَالَ وَكَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ قَالَ وَكَانَيُطِيلُ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى مَا لَا يُطِيلُ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ قَالَ عَفَّانُ وَأَبَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْعَطَّارُ مِثْلَهُ سَوَاءً  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would recite in the first two rak'ahs of the noon and afternoon prayers the opening chapter of the Book and another surah. He would sometimes recite loud enough to make audible to us the verse and would recite in the last two rak'ahs Surat al-Faitiha (only). (Using translation from Muslim 451b)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ بِ فَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ وَسُورَةٍ وَيُسْمِعُنَا الْآيَةَ أَحْيَانًا وَيَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ بِ فَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ

And he would recite in the first two units of Asr prayer while prolonging the first unit, and he would recite in the first unit of Fajr prayer while prolonging it and shorten the second unit.  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الظُّهْرِ يُسْمِعُنَا الْآيَةَ أَحْيَانًا فَيُطِيلُ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى وَيُقَصِّرُ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ وَيَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الْعَصْرِ وَيُطِيلُ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى مِنَ الْفَجْرِ وَيُقَصِّرُ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ

In the last two units, he used to read Surat Al-Fatiha only and he would make us hear the verse. He would prolong the first unit more than the second unit, and he would do the same in the Asr and Fajr prayers.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ «يَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ بِأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ وَِسُورَتَيْنِ وَفِي الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ بِأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ وَكَانَ يُسْمِعُنَا الْآيَةَ وَكَانَ يُطِيلُ الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى مَا لَا يُطِيلُ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ»
