[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "The worst of people in theft is the one who steals his prayers." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, how does one steal their prayers?" He said, "They do not complete their bowing or prostration."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَسْوَأُ النَّاسِ سَرِقَةً الَّذِي يَسْرِقُ صَلَاتَهُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَيْفَ يَسْرِقُ صَلَاتَهُ؟ قَالَ لَا يُتِمُّ رُكُوعَهَا وَلَا سُجُودَهَا

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "The worst of people in theft is the one who steals his own prayer." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, how does one steal his own prayer?" He said, "He does not complete its bowing or prostration." This was narrated in a hadith by Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri from the Prophet, ﷺ .

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ أَسْوَأَ النَّاسِ سَرِقَةً الَّذِي يَسْرِقُ صَلَاتَهُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَكَيْفَ يَسْرِقُ صَلَاتَهُ؟ قَالَ لَا يُتِمُّ رُكُوعَهَا وَلَا سُجُودَهَا وَرُوِيَ ذَلِكَ فِي حَدِيثِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ

[Machine] What did you pray, even if you had died, you would have died upon something other than the Fitrah?

مَا صَلَّيْتَ وَلَوْ مُتَّ مُتَّ عَلَى غَيْرِ الْفِطْرَةِ

[Machine] Ibn Omar said, "If he had seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he would have loved him and mentioned his love to the extent that no one else was born from the mother of Aiman, who was a wet nurse for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."

ابْنُ عُمَرَ لَوْ رَأَى هَذَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَأَحَبَّهُ فَذَكَرَ حُبَّهُ مَا وَلَدَتْ أُمُّ أَيْمَنَ وَكَانَتْ حَاضِنَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said, "Verily, the first thing for which people will be held to account on the Day of Resurrection from their actions is their prayer. Our Lord, the Exalted, will say to His angels while He knows better, 'Look at the prayer of My servant; did he complete it or fall short?' If it is complete, it will be recorded as complete for him, but if it is deficient, He will say, 'Look for voluntary prayers for My servant. If he has any, complete his obligatory prayer with it.' Then, the rest of his deeds will be dealt with accordingly." And Abu Ali ar-Rudhbary narrated on the authority of Abu Bakr bin Dasa, who narrated from Abu Dawud, who narrated from Musa bin Ismail, who narrated from Hammad, who narrated from Humaid, who narrated from a man from Banu Salit, who narrated from Abu Hurayrah, who narrated from the Prophet ﷺ similar to this hadith. Hassan differed in many aspects of this hadith, and we have mentioned the most correct of them, if Allah wills. And it was narrated from Yahya bin Ya'mur, from Abu Hurayrah, that it is Marfu' (elevated).

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَا يُحَاسَبُ النَّاسُ بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنْ أَعْمَالِهِمُ الصَّلَاةُ قَالَ يَقُولُ رَبُّنَا ﷻ لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ انْظُرُوا فِي صَلَاةِ عَبْدِي أَتَمَّهَا أَمْ نَقَصَهَا؟ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ تَامَّةً كُتِبَتْ لَهُ تَامَّةً وَإِنْ كَانَتِ انْتَقَصَ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا قَالَ انْظُرُوا هَلْ لِعَبْدِي مِنْ تَطَوُّعٍ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَهُ تَطَوُّعٌ قَالَ أَتِمُّوا لِعَبْدِي فَرِيضَتَهُ مِنْ تَطَوُّعِهِ ثُمَّ تُأْخَذُ الْأَعْمَالُ عَلَى ذَلِكُمْ 4001 وَأنبأ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ثنا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي سَلِيطٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ نَحْوَهُ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ قَدِ اخْتَلَفَ فِيهِ الْحَسَنُ مِنْ أَوْجُهٍ كَثِيرَةٍ وَمَا ذَكَرْنَا أَصَحَّهَا إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ تَعَالَى وَرُوِيَ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَعْمُرَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ مَرْفُوعًا

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Verily, the first thing for which a servant will be held accountable on the Day of Resurrection is his prayer. If it is complete, it will be recorded for him completely, and if it is not complete, Allah, the Exalted, will say to His angels: 'Look and see if my servant has any voluntary prayers that can complete what is deficient in his obligatory prayers.' Then, the same will apply to zakat (charity) and all other deeds will be dealt with accordingly." Hammad ibn Salamah narrated this and others also narrated it.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَا يُحَاسَبُ بِهِ الْعَبْدُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ صَلَاتُهُ فَإِنْ كَانَ أَكْمَلَهَا كُتِبَتْ لَهُ كَامِلَةً وَإِنْ لَمْ يُكْمِلْهَا قَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ هَلْ تَجِدُونَ لِعَبْدِي تَطَوُّعًا تُكْمِلُوا بِهِ مَا ضَيَّعَ مِنْ فَرِيضَتِهِ ثُمَّ الزَّكَاةُ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ سَائِرُ الْأَعْمَالِ عَلَى حَسَبِ ذَلِكَ رَفَعَهُ حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ وَوَقَفَهُ غَيْرُهُ

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ with the meaning of the hadith of Tamim ad-Dari regarding prayer and alms, he perfected it. Musa ibn Ubaydah narrated it and he is weak in this meaning, which contradicts this.

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمَعْنَى حَدِيثِ تَمِيمٍ الدَّارِيِّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَالزَّكَاةِ وَأَتَمَّ مِنْهُ وَرَوَى مُوسَى بْنُ عُبَيْدَةَ وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ فِي هَذَا الْمَعْنَى مَا يُشْبِهُ خِلَافَ هَذَا

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, Abu Muhammad Abdullah ibn Yusuf informed us, Abu Sa'id al-Arabi informed us, Hasan ibn Ali al-Za'farani narrated to us, about Asbat ibn Muhammad al-Qurashi, who narrated from Musa ibn Ubaydah al-Rabathi, who narrated from Ibn Hunein, who narrated from his father, who narrated from Ali ibn Abi Talib, who narrated from the Prophet ﷺ . The Prophet ﷺ said, "O Ali, the likeness of one who does not complete his prayer is like that of a pregnant woman who carries a load, but when her delivery is due, she drops it and neither gives birth nor carries the load. And the likeness of a worshipper is like that of a merchant whose profit is not released until his capital is released. Similarly, the optional prayer of a worshipper is not accepted until he fulfills his obligatory prayer." Musa ibn Ubaydah is not relied upon in narration, as there is disagreement about his credibility. It was reported by Zaid ibn al-Hubab and Asbat ibn Muhammad in the same manner, and it was also narrated by Sulayman ibn Bilal from Musa ibn Ubaydah, from Salih ibn Suwaid, from Ali, in the same manner, and it is considered elevated narration if it is deemed authentic, as it is.

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ (ح) وَأنبأ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ أنبأ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ أنبأ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الزَّعْفَرَانِيُّ ثنا أَسْبَاطُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ ثنا مُوسَى بْنُ عُبَيْدَةَ الرَّبَذِيُّ عَنِ ابْنِ حُنَيْنٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ مَثَلُ الَّذِي لَا يُتِمُّ صَلَاتَهُ كَمَثَلِ حُبْلَى حَمَلَتْ فَلَمَّا دَنَا نِفَاسُهَا أَسْقَطَتْ فَلَا هِيَ ذَاتُ وَلَدٍ وَلَا هِيَ ذَاتُ حَمْلٍ وَمَثَلُ الْمُصَلِّي كَمَثَلِ التَّاجِرِ لَا يَخْلُصُ لَهُ رِبْحُهُ حَتَّى يَخْلُصَ لَهُ رَأْسُ مَالِهِ كَذَلِكَ الْمُصَلِّي لَا تُقْبَلُ نَافِلَتُهُ حَتَّى يُؤَدِّي الْفَرِيضَةَ مُوسَى بْنُ عُبَيْدَةٍ لَا يُحْتَجُّ بِهِ وَقَدِ اخْتُلِفَ عَلَيْهِ فِي إِسْنَادِهِ فَرَوَاهُ زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ وَأَسْبَاطُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ هَكَذَا وَرَوَاهُ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ بِلَالٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ كَذَلِكَ مَرْفُوعًا وَهُوَ إِنْ صَحَّ كَمَا

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The likeness of one who does not complete his prayer is like that of a pregnant female camel, which carries its load until its near delivery, but then dumps it out; it neither carries its load, nor delivers its offspring. And the likeness of a person who performs the prayer is like that of a merchant who does not gain any profit until he has obtained his capital. Likewise, the voluntary prayer is not accepted until the obligatory prayer is performed, as its soundness depends on the soundness of the obligatory prayer. The earlier narrations are borne on a voluntary prayer (naflah) that is outside of the obligation, so its soundness is not based on the soundness of the obligatory prayer. And Allah knows best."

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَثَلُ الَّذِي لَا يُتِمُّ صَلَاتَهُ كَمَثَلِ الْحُبْلَى حَمَلَتْ حَتَّى إِذَا دَنَا نِفَاسُهَا أَسْقَطَتْ فَلَا هِيَ ذَاتُ حَمْلٍ وَلَا هِيَ ذَاتُ وَلَدٍ وَمَثَلُ الْمُصَلِّي كَمَثَلِ التَّاجِرِ لَا يَخْلُصُ لَهُ رِبْحٌ حَتَّى يَخْلُصَ لَهُ رَأْسُ مَالِهِ كَذَلِكَ الْمُصَلِّي لَا تُقْبَلُ لَهُ نَافِلَةٌ حَتَّى يُؤَدِّيَ الْفَرِيضَةَ فَتَكُونُ صِحَّتُهَا بِصِحَّةِ الْفَرِيضَةِ وَالْأَخْبَارُ الْمُتَقَدِّمَةُ مَحْمُولَةٌ عَلَى نَافِلَةٍ تَكُونُ خَارِجَ الْفَرِيضَةِ فَلَا يَكُونُ صِحَّتُهَا بِصِحَّةِ الْفَرِيضَةِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ

[Machine] I heard Abu Hurayrah saying, "I have not seen anyone who resembles the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ more than so-and-so, a man who was the ruler of the city. Sulayman said, 'I prayed behind him and he would lengthen the first two units of Dhuhr prayer and shorten the last two, and he would shorten Asr prayer. He would recite in the first two units of Maghrib prayer with brevity and in the first two units of Isha prayer with moderate recitation, and in the Fajr prayer with prolonged recitation.' Ad-Dahhak said, 'Someone informed me that Anas ibn Malik said, "I have not seen a prayer more resembling the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ than this young man," referring to Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz.' Ad-Dahhak said, 'I prayed behind him and he would pray as Sulayman ibn Yasar described.'"

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا أَشْبَهَ صَلَاةً بِصَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ فُلَانٍ لِرَجُلٍ كَانَ أَمِيرًا عَلَى الْمَدِينَةِ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ وَصَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَهُ فَكَانَ يُطِيلُ الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الظُّهْرِ وَيُخَفِّفُ الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ وَيُخَفِّفُ الْعَصْرَ وَيَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الْمَغْرِبِ بِقِصَارِ الْمُفَصَّلِ وَيَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الْعِشَاءِ بِوَسَطِ الْمُفَصَّلِ وَيَقْرَأُ فِي الصُّبْحِ بِطِوَالِ الْمُفَصَّلِ قَالَ الضَّحَاكُ وَحَدَّثَنِي مَنْ سَمِعَ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ مَا رَأَيْتُ صَلَاةً أَشْبَهَ بِصَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ هَذَا الْفَتَى يَعْنِي عُمَرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ قَالَ الضَّحَاكُ فَصَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَهُ فَكَانَ يُصَلِّي مِثْلَ مَا وَصَفَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ 4007 وَأنبأ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْمُقْرِئُ أَنْبَأَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ثنا يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَاضِي ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ثنا عَبْدُ الْكَبِيرِ الْحَنَفِيُّ يَعْنِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِنَحْوِهِ بِالْإِسْنَادَيْنِ جَمِيعًا

[Machine] "And I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recite it to the people in the obligatory prayer."

وَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَؤُمُّ بِهَا النَّاسَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ

[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ reciting during Fajr (dawn) and during the night when it was quiet.

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي الْفَجْرِ وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا عَسْعَسَ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ recited in Fajr prayer, "{And the palm trees bending with fruit} [Quran 10]." This is the wording of the narration of Ibn Abi Shaybah.

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَرَأَ فِي الْفَجْرِ {وَالنَّخْلَ بَاسِقَاتٍ} [ق 10] لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ

[Machine] "I prayed and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ led the Fajr prayer with us. He recited Surah Al-Qamar from the Noble Qur'an until he recited {And the palm trees, laden with clusters [of dates]}, [Quran 50:10]. I started to repeat it but I do not know what he said."

صَلَّيْتُ وَصَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الصُّبْحَ فَقَرَأَ قَ وَالْقُرْآنِ الْمَجِيدِ حَتَّى قَرَأَ {وَالنَّخْلَ بَاسِقَاتٍ لَهَا طَلْعٌ نَضِيدٌ} [ق 10] فَجَعَلْتُ أُرَدِّدُهَا وَلَا أَدْرِي مَا قَالَ

[Machine] That the Prophet ﷺ recited in the Fajr prayer Surah Qaf and the Noble Quran, and his prayer was after performing the act of easing (takheef).

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَرَأَ فِي صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ ق وَالْقُرْآنِ الْمَجِيدِ وَكَانَتْ صَلَاتُهُ بَعْدُ التَّخْفِيفَ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ led us in the morning prayer in Makkah and initiated the recitation of Surah Al-Mu'minun until the mention of Musa and Harun or the mention of Isa (Jesus). Muhammad ibn Abbad doubted or there was a disagreement regarding it. The Prophet ﷺ then took a piece of cloth, wiped it, and performed a prostration. Ibn As-Sa'ib was present during that incident.

صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الصُّبْحَ بِمَكَّةَ فَاسْتَفْتَحَ سُورَةَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ حَتَّى جَاءَ ذِكْرُ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ أَوْ جَاءَ ذِكْرُ عِيسَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ يَشُكُّ أَوِ اخْتَلَفُوا عَلَيْهِ أَخَذَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ سَعْلَةٌ فَحَذَفَ فَرَكَعَ وَابْنُ السَّائِبِ حَاضِرٌ ذَلِكَ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to recite in the Fajr prayer from sixty to one hundred.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ مِنَ السِّتِّينَ إِلَى الْمِائَةِ

[Machine] Abu Bakr As-Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, led the people in morning prayer and recited Surah Al-Baqarah. Umar said to him, "The sun has become dim by the time it rises." Abu Bakr replied, "If it had risen, we would not have found ourselves unaware."

أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقَ ؓ صَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ الصُّبْحَ فَقَرَأَ بِسُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ كَرُبَتِ الشَّمْسُ أَنْ تَطْلُعَ فَقَالَ لَوْ طَلَعَتْ لَمْ تَجِدْنَا غَافِلِينَ وَبِمَعْنَاهُ

[Machine] That Abu Bakr As-Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, prayed Fajr prayer and recited in it Surah Al-Baqarah in both rak'ahs.

أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقَ ؓ صَلَّى الصُّبْحَ فَقَرَأَ فِيهَا سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ كِلْتَيْهِمَا

[Machine] Hisham, so I said: "By Allah, indeed he used to stand when the dawn rises." He said: "Yes."

هِشَامٌ فَقُلْتُ وَاللهِ إِذًا لَقَدْ كَانَ يَقُومُ حِينَ يَطْلُعُ الْفَجْرُ قَالَ أَجَلْ

[Machine] I have not taken the recitation of Surah Yusuf from anyone except from the reading of Uthman, who recites it in the morning due to the abundance of what he used to repeat.

مَا أَخَذْتُ سُورَةَ يُوسُفَ إِلَّا مِنْ قِرَاءَةِ عُثْمَانَ إِيَّاهَا فِي الصُّبْحِ مِنْ كَثْرَةِ مَا كَانَ يُرَدِّدُهَا

[Machine] He used to recite in the morning during travel, in each unit of prayer, ten chapters from the Mufassal. The Shafi'i did not mention the specific chapters, but he said the first ten.

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الصُّبْحِ فِي السَّفَرِ بِعَشْرٍ السُّوَرِ الْأُوَلِ مِنَ الْمُفَصَّلِ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ بِسُورَةٍ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ الشَّافِعِيُّ السُّوَرَ وَقَالَ بِالْعَشْرِ الْأُوَلِ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ left and appointed Sabaa' bin 'Urftah as the ruler of Medina. Abu Hurairah said, "I came to Medina as an immigrant and I prayed Fajr behind Sabaa'. In the first prostration, he recited Surah Maryam, and in the second prostration, he recited 'Woe to those who give less [than due],' (Quran, 83:1)." Abu Hurairah said, "I said, 'Woe to Abu Fulan or Woe to Abu Fulan,' referring to a man who used to live in the land of Azd and had two measures - one he would use for himself and the other he would cheat people with."

خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَاسْتَخْلَفَ سِبَاعَ بْنَ عُرْفُطَةَ عَلَى الْمَدِينَةِ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ وَقَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ مُهَاجِرًا فَصَلَّيْتُ الصُّبْحَ وَرَاءَ سِبَاعٍ فَقَرَأَ فِي السَّجْدَةِ الْأُولَى سُورَةَ مَرْيَمَ وَفِي الْأُخْرَى وَيْلٌ لِلْمُطَفِّفِينَ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ قُلْتُ وَيْلٌ لِأَبِي فُلْ أَوْ قَالَ لِأَبِي فُلَانَ لِرَجُلٍ كَانَ بِأَرْضِ الْأَزْدِ كَانَ لَهُ مِكْيَالِانِ مِكْيَالٌ يَكْتَالُ بِهِ لِنَفْسِهِ وَمِكْيَالٌ يَبْخَسُ بِهِ النَّاسَ

A man of Juhaynah told him that he had heard the Prophet ﷺ reciting "When the earth is shaken" (Surah 99) in both rak'ahs of the morning prayer. But I do not know whether he had forgotten, or whether he recited it on purpose. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 816)

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ الْأَرْضُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ كِلْتَيْهِمَا فَلَا أَدْرِي أَنَسِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَمْ قَرَأَ ذَلِكَ عَمْدًا وَرُوِّينَا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ صَلَّى بِالْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ صَلَاةَ الصُّبْحِ لِلنَّاسِ وَذَلِكَ يَرِدُ

[Machine] We went out with Umar ibn Al-Khattab as pilgrims, and he led us in the Fajr prayer. He recited the verse, "Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with the companions of the elephant?"

خَرَجْنَا مَعَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ حُجَّاجًا فَصَلَّى بِنَا الْفَجْرَ فَقَرَأَ أَلَمْ تَرَ وَلِإِيلَافِ قُرَيْشٍ

[Machine] Abdul Rahman bin Auf was stabbed in his foot while leading them in prayer during the dawn prayer. He recited the verse, "When the victory of Allah has come and the conquest, and indeed, We have granted you, [O Muhammad], al-Kawthar."

طُعِنَ قَدَّمُوا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَوْفٍ صَلَّى بِهُمُ الْفَجْرَ فَقَرَأَ إِذَا جَاءَ نَصْرُ اللهِ وَإِنَّا أَعْطَيْنَاكَ الْكَوْثَرَ

I came to Abu Sa'id al-Khudri and he was surrounded by people. When the people departed from him I said: I am not going to ask you what these people have been asking you. I want to ask you about the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He (Abu Sa'id) said: There is no good for you in this. He (Qaz'a), however, repeated (his demand). He then said: The noon prayer would start and one of us would go to Baqi' and, having relieved himself, would come to his home, then perform ablution and go to the mosque, and (he would find) The Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the first rak'ah. (Using translation from Muslim 454b)

أَتَيْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ وَهُوَ مَكْثُورٌ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا تَفَرَّقَ النَّاسُ عَنْهُ قُلْتُ إِنِّي لَا أَسْأَلُكَ عَمَّا يَسْأَلُكَ هَؤُلَاءِ قُلْتُ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَا لَكَ فِي ذَلِكَ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَأَعَادَهَا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ كَانَتْ صَلَاةُ الظُّهْرِ تُقَامُ فَيَنْطَلِقُ أَحَدُنَا إِلَى الْبَقِيعِ فَيَقْضِي حَاجَتَهُ ثُمَّ يَأْتِي أَهْلَهُ فَيَتَوَضَّأُ ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى وَرَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مَهْدِيٍّ

[Machine] We used to ensure the Prophet's ﷺ standing in the noon and afternoon prayers, so we stood in the first two units of the noon prayer for the duration of reciting Alif Lam Meem, the revelation of prostration verse, and we stood in the last two units for half of that. And we stood in the first two units of the afternoon prayer at the same duration as his standing in the last two units of the noon prayer. Similarly, we stood in the last two units of the afternoon prayer for half of that. This is the narration of Yahya bin Yahya.

كُنَّا نَحْرِزُ قِيَامَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ فَحَرَزْنَا قِيَامَهُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الظُّهْرِ قَدْرَ قِرَاءَةِ الم تَنْزِيلُ السَّجْدَةِ وَحَرَزْنَا قِيَامَهُ فِي الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ قَدْرَ النِّصْفِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَحَرَزْنَا قِيَامَهُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الْعَصْرِ عَلَى قَدْرِ قِيَامِهِ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ مِنَ الظُّهْرِ وَفِي الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ مِنَ الْعَصْرِ عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَحْيَى

[Machine] I heard Jabir ibn Samurah saying: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite in Dhuhr, Asr, and during the night when it becomes dark, and similar to that, and he used to recite in Fajr longer than that.

سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ بِ اللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى وَنَحْوِهَا وَيَقْرَأُ فِي الصُّبْحِ بِأَطْوَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to recite in Dhuhr, Asr, and in Surah Al-Tawriq and similar Surahs in the morning. The hadith is narrated by Abu Dawood, and according to another narration by Al-Salahiyyini, the Prophet ﷺ used to recite in Dhuhr, Asr, in Surah Al-Tawriq, and similar Surahs in the morning.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الْبُرُوجِ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ أَبِي دَاوُدَ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ السَّالَحِينِيِّ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ بِ السَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الْبُرُوجِ وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ وَنَحْوِهَا مِنَ السُّوَرِ

[Machine] He heard Abu Hurairah say, "I have not seen anyone who prayed more similar to the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ than so-and-so, the leader who was in Medina." Sulaiman said, "I prayed behind him and he would prolong the first two rakahs of Dhuhr prayer and shorten the last two rakahs, and he would shorten the Asr prayer. He would recite the detailed recitation in the first two rakahs of Maghrib prayer, and the middle recitation in the first two rakahs of Isha prayer, and the longer recitation in Fajr prayer."

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ يَقُولُ مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا أَشْبَهَ صَلَاةً بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ فُلَانٍ لِأَمِيرِ كَانَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ فَصَلَّيْتُ أَنَا وَرَاءَهُ فَكَانَ يُطِيلُ فِي الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الظُّهْرِ وَيُخَفِّفُ الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ وَيُخَفِّفُ الْعَصْرَ وَيَقْرَأُ فِي الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الْمَغْرِبِ بِقِصَارِ الْمُفَصَّلِ وَفِي الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الْعِشَاءِ بِوَسَطِ الْمُفَصَّلِ وَفِي الصُّبْحِ بِطِوَالِ الْمُفَصَّلِ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to recite in the Maghrib prayer on the night of Friday the Surah "Say, 'O disbelievers'" and "Say, 'He is Allah, [who is] One.'" This was reported by Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz, who narrated from Ahmad ibn Salman al-Faqih, who narrated from Abu Qilabah al-Raqashi, who narrated from his father, who narrated from Saeed ibn Simek ibn Harb, who narrated from his father, who narrated from Jabir ibn Samurah.

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ لَيْلَةَ الْجُمُعَةِ قُلْ يَأَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ وَقُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ أَنْبَأَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلْمَانَ الْفَقِيهُ ثنا أَبُو قِلَابَةَ الرَّقَاشِيُّ ثنا أَبِي ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ بِذَلِكَ

[Machine] He arrived in the city during the caliphate of Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq and prayed behind him the Maghrib prayer. Abu Bakr recited in the first two units from the mother of the Quran and a short surah. Then, in the third unit, he stood up and I approached him until my clothes were almost touching his clothes. I heard him recite from the mother of the Quran and this verse, "Our Lord, let not our hearts deviate after You have guided us and grant us from Yourself mercy. Indeed, You are the Bestower" [Al-Imran 8].

أَنَّهُ قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ فِي خِلَافَةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ ؓ فَصَلَّى وَرَاءَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ الْمَغْرِبَ فَقَرَأَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ وَسُورَةٍ مِنْ قِصَارِ الْمُفَصَّلِ ثُمَّ قَامَ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الثَّالِثَةِ قَالَ فَدَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ حَتَّى إِنَّ ثِيَابِي تَكَادُ أَنْ تَمَسَّ ثِيَابَهُ فَسَمِعْتُهُ قَرَأَ بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ وَهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ {رَبَّنَا لَا تُزِغْ قُلُوبَنَا بَعْدَ إِذْ هَدَيْتَنَا وَهَبْ لَنَا مِنْ لَدُنْكَ رَحْمَةً إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْوَهَّابُ} [آل عمران 8]

He is Allah, the One” (Surah 112). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 815)

أَنَّهُ صَلَّى خَلْفَ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ الْمَغْرِبَ فَقَرَأَ قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ

This indicates that those (traditions indicating long surahs) are abrogated, and this is more sound tradition. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 813)

أَنَّ أَبَاهُ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ بِنَحْوٍ مِمَّا يَقْرَءُونَ وَالْعَادِيَاتِ وَنَحْوِهَا مِنَ السُّوَرِ

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ reciting the wording of the Hadith of Yahya ibn Yahya in Maghrib, at At-Tur.

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ بِالطُّورِ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَحْيَى

I heard Ibn’Abbas reciting wa’l-mursalat urfan(surah lxxxvii). She said; sonny you have reminded me of this surah by your recitation. Thie is the last surah which I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ reciting in the sunset prayer. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 810)

إِنَّ أُمَّ الْفَضْلِ بِنْتَ الْحَارِثِ سَمِعَتْهُ وَهُوَ يَقْرَأُ وَالْمُرْسَلَاتِ عُرْفًا فَقَالَتْ يَا بُنِيَّ لَقَدْ ذَكَّرْتَنِي بِقِرَاءَتِكَ هَذِهِ السُّورَةَ إِنَّهَا لَآخِرُ مَا سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ بِهَا فِي الْمَغْرِبِ

[Machine] Abu Asim al-Nabil narrated that Ibn Jurayj informed him, from Ibn Abi Mulaykah, from Urwah, from Marwan, who said: Zaid ibn Thabit asked me, "Why do you not recite in the Maghrib prayer the Muqatta' (shortened) Surahs? Verily, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite in the Maghrib prayer the two long Surahs." So, I asked Urwah, "What are the two long Surahs?" He said, "Al-A'raf." Then, I asked Ibn Abi Mulaykah, "What are the two long Surahs?" He said, "Al-An'am and Al-A'raf."

ثنا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ النَّبِيلُ أنبأ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ مَرْوَانَ قَالَ قَالَ لِي زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ مَا لَكَ تَقْرَأُ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ بِقِصَارِ الْمُفَصَّلِ؟ لَقَدْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ بِطُولَى الطُّولَيَيْنِ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لِعُرْوَةَ مَا طُولَى الطُّولَيَيْنِ؟ قَالَ الْأَعْرَافُ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لِابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ مَا طُولَى الطُّولَيَيْنِ؟ قَالَ الْأَنْعَامُ وَالْأَعْرَافُ

[Machine] That the Prophet ﷺ recited Surah Al-A'raf in the Maghrib prayer and divided it into two units. Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Abdan informed us, Ahmad ibn Ubaid reported to us, Shadhan ibn Zakariya reported to us, Abu Abdullah narrated to us, Amr ibn Uthman ibn Sa'id ibn Kathir ibn Dinar narrated to us, Abu Haywah and Baqiyyah ibn al-Walid said, Shu'ayb ibn Abi Hamzah narrated it, and he mentioned it in the same way.

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَرَأَ سُورَةَ الْأَعْرَافِ فِي صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ فَرَّقَهَا فِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ أَخْبَرَنَاهُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ثنا شَاذَانُ بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا ثنا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ كَثِيرِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ ثنا أَبُو حَيْوَةَ وَبَقِيَّةُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ قَالَا ثنا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ فَذَكَرَهُ وَكَذَلِكَ

“Mu’adh bin Jabal Al-Ansari led his companions in the ‘Isha’ prayer and he made it long. A man among us went away and prayed by himself. Mu’adh was told about that and he said: ‘He is a hypocrite.’ When the man heard about that, he went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him what Mu’adh had said to him. The Prophet ﷺ said: ‘Do you want to be a cause of Fitnah (trial, tribulation), O Mu’adh? When you lead the people in prayer, recite “By the sun and its brightness,”[Ash-Shams 91] and “Glorify the Name of your Lord the Most High,” [Al-A’la 87] and “By the night as it envelopes,” [Al-Lail 92] and “Recite in the Name of your Lord.’”[Al-‘Alaq] (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 986)

إِنَّهُ مُنَافِقٌ فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلَ دَخَلَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِمَا قَالَ لَهُ مُعَاذٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَتُرِيدُ أَنْ تَكُونَ فَتَّانًا يَا مُعَاذُ إِذَا أَمَمْتَ النَّاسَ فَاقْرَأْ بِالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَاهَا وَسَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى وَاقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ

[Machine] He informed him that he prayed with the Prophet ﷺ the night prayer (Isha) and he recited Surah At-Tin (Chapter 95) and Surah Az-Zaitoun (Chapter 99).

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ صَلَّى مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ الْعِشَاءَ فَقَرَأَ بِالتِّينِ وَالزَّيْتُونِ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed the Isha prayer with us during a journey and in one of the units (rak'ahs) he recited Surah At-Tin (The Fig) and Surah Az-Zaitoun (The Olive). This narration is mentioned in Sahih from the hadith of Shu'bah.

صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الْعِشَاءِ فِي سَفَرٍ فَقَرَأَ فِي إِحْدَى الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ بِالتِّينِ وَالزَّيْتُونِ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ شُعْبَةَ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would listen to the crying of a lad in the company of his mother, in prayer, and he would recite a short surah or a small surah. (Using translation from Muslim 470a)

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْمَعُ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ مَعَ أُمِّهِ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَيَقْرَأُ بِالسُّورَةِ الْخَفِيفَةِ أَوْ بِالسُّورَةِ الْقَصِيرَةِ

The Prophet ﷺ said, "When I start the prayer I intend to prolong it, but on hearing the cries of a child, I cut short the prayer because I know that the cries of the child will incite its mother's passions." (Using translation from Bukhārī 709)

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنِّي لَأَدْخُلُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أُطِيلَهَا فَأَسْمَعُ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ فَأَتَجَوَّزُ فِي صَلَاتِي مِمَّا أَعْلَمُ مِنْ شِدَّةِ وَجْدِ أُمِّهِ مِنْ بُكَائِهِ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Verily, I enter the prayer intending to prolong it, but when I hear the crying of a baby, I shorten it out of knowing the distress of its mother because of it."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنِّي لَأَدْخُلُ الصَّلَاةَ أُرِيدُ إِطَالَتَهَا فَأَسْمَعُ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ فَأُخَفِّفُ مِمَّا أَعْلَمُ مِنْ شِدَّةِ وَجْدِ أُمِّهِ بِهِ

I asked Ubai bin Kaʿb regarding the two Muwwidhat (Surats of taking refuge with Allah). He said, "I asked the Prophet ﷺ about them, He said, 'These two Surats have been recited to me and I have recited them (and are present in the Qur'an).' So, we say as Messenger of Allah ﷺ said (i.e., they are part of the Qur'an." (Using translation from Bukhārī 4976)

سَأَلْتُ أُبَيَّ بْنَ كَعْبٍ عَنِ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ قِيلَ لِي فَقُلْتُ فَنَحْنُ نَقُولُ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ

[Machine] I asked Ubayy ibn Ka'b about the mu'awwidhatayn (surahs of seeking protection), so I said, "O Abu al-Mundhir, surely your brother Ibn Mas'ud recites them from the Mus'haf." He replied, "Indeed, I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about this, and he said, 'Say them just as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said.'"

سَأَلْتُ أُبَيَّ بْنَ كَعْبٍ عَنِ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا الْمُنْذِرِ إِنَّ أَخَاكَ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ يَحُكُّهُمَا مِنَ الْمُصْحَفِ قَالَ إِنِّي سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَقِيلَ لِي فَقُلْتُ فَنَحْنُ نَقُولُ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, verses have been revealed to me that no one else has seen, referring to the last two chapters of surah al-Falaq and surah al-Nas. And in the narration of Muhammad ibn Ubayd, he said, "Verses were revealed to me tonight that I have never seen before, the last two chapters of surah al-Falaq and surah al-Nas."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَقَدْ أُنْزِلَتْ عَلَيَّ آيَاتٌ لَمْ يُرَ مِثْلُهُنَّ يَعْنِي الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ يَعْلَى وَفِي رِوَايَةِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ أُنْزِلَتْ عَلَيَّ اللَّيْلَةَ آيَاتٌ لَمْ أَرَ مِثْلَهُنَّ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ

[Machine] I was driving the camel of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, when he said to me, "O 'Uqbah, shall I not teach you the two best surahs that have been recited?" I said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah, teach me." He said, "Say, 'I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak' and 'I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind'." He did not see me showing much excitement about them. The next morning, he led the people in prayer and recited them, then he asked me, "O 'Uqbah, how did you find them?" Al-'Ala' bin Kathir narrated this, and Ibn Wahb narrated from Mu'awiyah from Al-'Ala' bin Al-Harith, and it is the most correct. 4048 - Abu 'Ali Ar-Rudhbari reported to me, Abu Bakr bin Dasa narrated to me, Abu Dawud narrated to me, from Ahmad bin 'Amr bin As-Sarh, from Ibn Wahb, from Mu'awiyah, from Al-'Ala' bin Al-Harith, from Al-Qasim, the freed slave of Mu'awiyah, from 'Uqbah bin 'Amir, who said, "I was driving the camel of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during a journey, when he said to me, 'O 'Uqbah, shall I not teach you the two best surahs that have been recited?' He then taught me to say, 'I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak' and 'I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind'." He did not see me showing much excitement about them. Then, when he descended for the morning prayer, he led the people in prayer and recited them. After he finished the prayer, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned towards me and said, 'O 'Uqbah, how did you find them?' Ath-Thawri narrated it from Mu'awiyah bin Salih.

كُنْتُ أَقُودُ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ نَاقَتَهُ فَقَالَ لِي يَا عُقْبَةُ أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ خَيْرَ سُورَتَيْنِ قُرِئَتَا؟ قُلْتُ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَأَقْرَأَنِي قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ وَقُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ فَلَمْ يَرَنِي أَعْجَبُ بِهِمَا فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ الْغَدَاةَ فَقَرَأَ بِهِمَا فَقَالَ لِي يَا عُقْبَةُ كَيْفَ رَأَيْتَ؟ كَذَا قَالَ الْعَلَاءُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ وَقَالَ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ وَهُوَ أَصَحُّ 4048 أنبأ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ السَّرْحِ أنبأ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ مَوْلَى مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَقُودُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ نَاقَتَهُ فِي السَّفَرِ فَقَالَ لِي يَا عُقْبَةُ أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ خَيْرَ سُورَتَيْنِ قُرِئَتَا فَعَلَّمَنِي قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ وَقُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسَ فَلَمْ يَرَنِي سُرِرْتُ بِهِمَا جِدًّا فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ لِصَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ صَلَّى بِهِمَا صَلَاةَ الصُّبْحِ لِلنَّاسِ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ الْتَفَتَ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ لِي يَا عُقْبَةُ كَيْفَ رَأَيْتَ؟ وَرَوَاهُ الثَّوْرِيُّ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ

He asked the Prophet ﷺ about Al-Mua'awwidhatain. Uqbah said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in praying Fajr and recited them." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 952)

أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ فَأَمَّنَا بِهِمَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ
