“I memorized two pauses in the prayer, a pause before reciting and a pause when bowing. ‘Imran bin Husain denied that, so they wrote to Al-Madinah, to Ubayy bin Ka’b, and he said that Samurah was speaking the truth.”

سَمُرَةُ حَفِظْتُ سَكْتَتَيْنِ فِي الصَّلاَةِ سَكْتَةً قَبْلَ الْقِرَاءَةِ وَسَكْتَةً عِنْدَ الرُّكُوعِ فَأَنْكَرَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ عِمْرَانُ بْنُ الْحُصَيْنِ فَكَتَبُوا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى أُبَىِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ فَصَدَّقَ سَمُرَةَ

[Machine] When he finished reciting the Surah, he remained silent for a while. Imran ibn Husayn criticized him for that, so they wrote to Ubay ibn Ka'b and Ubay confirmed his statement.

كَانَ إِذَا كَبَّرَ سَكَتَ هُنَيَّةً وَإِذَا فَرَغَ مِنْ قِرَاءَةِ السُّورَةِ سَكَتَ هُنَيَّةً فَأَنْكَرَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ عِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ فَكَتَبُوا إِلَى أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ فَكَتَبَ أُبَيٌّ يُصَدِّقُهُ

[Machine] "That the Prophet ﷺ used to remain silent twice, when he entered into prayer and when he finished reciting. Imran ibn Husain condemned this, so they wrote to Ubay ibn Ka'b to ask him about it. He responded that Samurah told the truth."

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَسْكُتُ سَكْتَتَيْنِ إِذَادَخَلَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَإِذَا فَرَغَ مِنَ الْقِرَاءَةِ فَأَنْكَرَ ذَلِكَ عِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ فَكَتَبُوا إِلَى أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ يَسْأَلُونَهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَكَتَبَ أَنْ صَدَقَ سَمُرَةُ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to remain silent when he entered into prayer and when he finished recitation. Imran ibn Husayn disapproved of this and wrote to Ubayy ibn Ka'b. He wrote back to them affirming that Samurah was truthful.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَسْكُتُ سَكْتَتَيْنِ إِذَا دَخَلَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَإِذَا فَرَغَ مِنَ الْقِرَاءَةِ فَأَنْكَرَ ذَلِكَ عِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ وَكَتَبُوا إِلَى أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَنْ صَدَقَ سَمُرَةُ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to remain silent when he entered prayer and when he finished reciting. Imran ibn Husayn disapproved of this and they wrote to Ubay ibn Ka'b. He replied to them saying that Samurah was telling the truth. Abu Muhammad says Qatadah used to say three silences, and in the raised narration, there are two silences.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَسْكُتُ سَكْتَتَيْنِ إِذَا دَخَلَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَإِذَا فَرَغَ مِنَ الْقِرَاءَةِ فَأَنْكَرَ ذَلِكَ عِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ فَكَتَبُوا إِلَى أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَنْ قَدْ صَدَقَ سَمُرَةُ قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ كَانَ قَتَادَةُ يَقُولُ ثَلَاثُ سَكَتَاتٍ وَفِي الْحَدِيثِ الْمَرْفُوعِ سَكْتَتَانِ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to remain silent during his prayer and after finishing recitation. Imran ibn Husain disapproved of this and they wrote to Ubay ibn Ka'b about it, and he wrote back saying that Samurah was telling the truth.

«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْكُتُ سَكْتَتَيْنِ إِذَا دَخَلَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَإِذَا فَرَغَ مِنَ الْقِرَاءَةِ» فَأَنْكَرَ ذَلِكَ عِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ فَكَتَبُوا فِي ذَلِكَ إِلَى أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَنْ صَدَقَ سَمُرَةُ

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , there was a pause when he would make takbeer (say "Allahu Akbar") and a pause when he finished reciting the Surah. Imran bin Husain was disturbed by this, so they wrote to Ubay bin Ka'b about it. Ubay wrote back, confirming that Samurah had indeed memorized the narration from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ .

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ سَكْتَةً إِذَا كَبَّرَ وَسَكْتَةً إِذَا فَرَغَ مِنْ قِرَاءَةِ السُّورَةِ» فَعَابَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ عِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ فَكَتَبُوا إِلَى أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ فِي ذَلِكَ فَكَتَبَ أُبَيٌّ صَدَقَ سَمُرَةُ وَيَقُولُ إِنَّ سَمُرَةَ حَفِظَ الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ
