[Machine] to Aishah, the Prophet's wife, "Indeed, there are men who would recite the Quran two or three times in one night." She said, "Those people have recited, but I used to stay up with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in complete darkness, and he would recite Surah Al-Baqarah, Surah Al-Imran, and Surah An-Nisa. When he would come across a verse that mentions glad tidings, he would supplicate and show delight. And when he would come across a verse that mentions threats or warnings, he would supplicate and seek refuge."

لِعَائِشَةَ ؓ إِنَّ رِجَالًا يَقْرَأُ أَحَدُهُمُ الْقُرْآنَ فِي اللَّيْلَةِ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا فَقَالَتْ أُولَئِكَ قَرَءُوا وَلَمْ يَقْرَءُوا كُنْتُ أَقُومُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي اللَّيْلِ التَّامِّ فَيَقْرَأُ بِالْبَقَرَةِ وَآلِ عِمْرَانَ وَالنِّسَاءِ فَإِذَا مَرَّ بِآيَةٍ فِيهَا اسْتِبْشَارٌ دَعَا وَرَغِبَ وَإِذَا مَرَّ بِآيَةٍ فِيهَا تَخْوِيفٌ دَعَا وَاسْتَعَاذَ

[Machine] I said to Aisha, "O mother of the believers, indeed there are people who recite the Qur'an two or three times in one night." She replied, "Those who recite but do not recite as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to stand the entire night and recite Surah Al-Baqarah, Surah Al-Imran, and Surah An-Nisa. He would not pass by a verse that had glad tidings without supplicating to Allah, nor would he pass by a verse that had warning without seeking refuge in Allah."

[Machine] "Some people used to recite the Qur'an once or twice during the night. A woman said: 'Those people have recited, but I have not. I used to stay awake with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the night of the full moon, and he used to recite Surah Al-Baqarah, Surah Al-Imran, and Surah An-Nisa'. Whenever he passed by a verse that had fear in it, he would seek refuge with Allah and whenever he passed by a verse that had glad tidings in it, he would supplicate to Allah and express his desire towards Him."

أَنَّ نَاسًا يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ فِي اللَّيْلَةِ مَرَّةً أَوْ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَقَالَتْ أُولَئِكَ قَرَءُوا وَلَمْ يَقْرَءُوا كُنْتُ أَقُومُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْلَةَ التَّمَامِ فَكَانَ يَقْرَأُ سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ وَآلِ عِمْرَانَ وَالنِّسَاءِ فَلَا يَمُرُّ بِآيَةٍ فِيهَا تَخَوُّفٌ إِلَّا دَعَا اللهَ ﷻ وَاسْتَعَاذَ وَلَا يَمُرُّ بِآيَةٍ فِيهَا اسْتِبْشَارٌ إِلَّا دَعَا اللهَ ﷻ وَرَغِبَ إِلَيْهِ
