[Machine] Does Ibn Mas'ood recite like this poetry? I have recognized the similarities that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to associate between them and mentioned twenty surahs from the beginning of the separated ones, including two surahs in one Rak'ah.  

البيهقي:٢٤٦٠أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مَحْمَوَيْهِ الْعَسْكَرِيُّ بِالْبَصْرَةِ ثنا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْقَلَانِسِيُّ ثنا آدَمُ بْنُ أَبِي إِيَاسٍ ثنا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مَرَّةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا وَائِلٍ يَقُولُ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ فَقَالَ إِنِّي قَرَأْتُ الْمُفَصَّلَ اللَّيْلَةَ فِي رَكْعَةٍ فَقَالَ

لَهُ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ أَهَذًّا كَهَذِّ الشِّعْرِ؟ لَقَدْ عَرَفْتُ النَّظَائِرَ الَّتِي كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرُنُ بَيْنَهُنَّ وَذَكَرَ عِشْرِينَ سُورَةً مِنْ أَوَّلِ الْمُفَصَّلِ سُورَتَيْنِ فِي رَكْعَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ  

رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ آدَمَ وَرَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ

A man came to Ibn Masʿud and said, "I recited the Mufassal (Suras) at night in one rakʿa." Ibn Masʿud said, "This recitation is (too quick) like the recitation of poetry. I know the identical Suras which the Prophet ﷺ used to recite in pairs." Ibn Masʿud then mentioned 20 Mufassal Suras including two Suras from the family of (i.e. those verses which begin with) Ha, Meem [??] (which the Prophet ﷺ used to recite) in each rakʿa.

هَذًّا كَهَذِّ الشِّعْرِ لَقَدْ عَرَفْتُ النَّظَائِرَ الَّتِي كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَقْرِنُ بَيْنَهُنَّ فَذَكَرَ عِشْرِينَ سُورَةً مِنَ الْمُفَصَّلِ سُورَتَيْنِ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ

[Machine] "I read the detailed (passage) tonight in one unit (of prayer), and Abdullah said, 'Like this (poetry)?" I recognized the similar (verses) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite in one unit (of prayer), so he mentioned twenty surahs from the beginning of the (passage) that connect between the two surahs."
