سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى
The Apostle of Allah ﷺ used to recite in the noon prayer:" Glorify the name of thy Most High Lord in the morning prayer longer than this" (lxxxvii.)
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ بِ { سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الأَعْلَى} وَفِي الصُّبْحِ بِأَطْوَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ
“Glorify the name of thy Lord, the Most High.” He would say:”Glory be to Allah, the most High”. Abu Dawud said; In this tradition the other narrators have differed from the narrator Wakl. This has been narrated by Wakl, and Shu’bah from Abu Ishaq, from Sa’ld b. Jubair, from Ibn ‘Abbas as his own statement (and not from the Prophet)
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَرَأَ { سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الأَعْلَى } قَالَ سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الأَعْلَى
Ibn Abbas used to pray witr with three (units) with (the Surahs): "Glorify the Name of Your Lord, the Most High" (Surah Al-A'la), "Say: O You disbelievers" (Surah Al-Kafirun), and "Say: He is Allah, (the) One" (Surah Al-Ikhlas).
أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُوتِرُ بِثَلاَثٍ بِ { سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الأَعْلَى } وَ { قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ } وَ { قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ }
“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to perform Witr and recite: ‘Glorify the Name of your Lord the Most High.’, [Al-A’la (87)] ‘Say: O you disbelievers!” [Al-Kafirun (109)] and ‘Say: Allah is One.”. [Al-Ikhlas (112)]
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُوتِرُ بِ {سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الأَعْلَى} وَ {قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ} وَ {قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ}
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ liked this soorah: “Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most Highʿ[al-Aʿla 87].

[AI] "Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ that he used to perform the Tawraq prayer (an optional prayer performed after the obligatory night prayer) with recitation of Surah Al-Alaa' (The Most High) in it."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُوتِرُ بِسَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى

[AI] Jabir heard the Prophet ﷺ saying: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite in the noon prayer "Subhan Rabbi al-A'la" and similar (verses), and in the morning prayer he used to recite longer than that."
سَمِعَ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ بِسَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى وَنَحْوَهَا وَفِي الصُّبْحِ بِأَطْوَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ
[AI] Indeed, the Prophet, peace be upon him, used to say "Glory be to my Lord, the Most High" when he recited "Subhan Rabbi al-A'la" (Glorified is my Lord, the Most High).
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَرَأَ سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ «سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْأَعْلَى»
[AI] He used to say, when he recited, "Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High" [Al-A'la 1], he said, "Glory be to my Lord, the Most High, who created and proportioned." He said, and this is the recitation of Ubayy ibn Ka'b.
أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا قَرَأَ {سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى} [الأعلى 1] قَالَ «سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْأَعْلَى الَّذِي خَلَقَ فَسَوَّى» قَالَ وَهِيَ قِرَاءَةُ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ
ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ الْوِتْرِ الَّذِي إِذَا أَرَادَ الْمَرْءُ أَوْتَرَ بِهِ
It was narrated from ‘Ali ؓ that The Prophet ﷺ used to pray Witr with three raka’hs (Using translation from Aḥmad 685)
«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يُوتِرُ بِوَاحِدَةٍ»
ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُدْحِضِ قَوْلَ مَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّ الْوِتْرَ بِالرَّكْعَةِ الْوَاحِدَةِ غَيْرُ جَائِزٍ

ذِكْرُ إِبَاحَةِ الْوِتْرِ بِثَلَاثِ رَكَعَاتٍ لِمَنْ أَرَادَ ذَلِكَ
“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to perform Witr and recite: ‘Glorify the Name of your Lord the Most High.’, [Al-A’la (87)] ‘Say: O you disbelievers!” [Al-Kafirun (109)] and ‘Say: Allah is One.”. [Al-Ikhlas (112)] (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1171)

[AI] So we heard him recite, "Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High."
فَسَمِعْنَاهُ يَقْرَأُ سَبَّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى
