[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to recite in the first two units of the Dhuhr prayer the mother of the book (Al-Fatiha) and two surahs. Sometimes, he would let us hear a verse. He would recite in the last two units of the prayer the mother of the Quran (Al-Fatiha). He would prolong the recitation in the first unit more than the second unit, and the same for the Asr prayer and the Fajr prayer. 'Affan and Abaan bin Yazid Al-Atar said the same.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ بِأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ وَسُورَتَيْنِ وَكَانَ يُسْمِعُنَا الْأَحْيَانَ الْآيَةَ قَالَ وَكَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ قَالَ وَكَانَيُطِيلُ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى مَا لَا يُطِيلُ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ قَالَ عَفَّانُ وَأَبَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْعَطَّارُ مِثْلَهُ سَوَاءً  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to read in the first two units of the Dhuhr prayer Surat Al-Fatiha and two other Surahs. In the last two units, he used to read Surat Al-Fatiha only and he would make us hear the verse. He would prolong the first unit more than the second unit, and he would do the same in the Asr and Fajr prayers.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ «يَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ بِأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ وَِسُورَتَيْنِ وَفِي الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ بِأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ وَكَانَ يُسْمِعُنَا الْآيَةَ وَكَانَ يُطِيلُ الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى مَا لَا يُطِيلُ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to recite in the first two Rak'ahs of the Dhuhr prayer the opening chapter of the Quran and another chapter, and he would sometimes recite a verse that we could hear. He would also recite the opening chapter in the last two Rak'ahs of the prayer, and he would prolong his recitation in the first Rak'ah more than in the second Rak'ah. The same would apply to the Asr prayer and the Fajr prayer. This narration is reported in Sahih from the Hadith of Hammam ibn Yahya and others.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ وَسُورَةٍ وَكَانَ يُسْمِعُنَا الْأَحْيَانَ الْآيَةَ قَالَ وَكَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ وَكَانَ يُطِيلُ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى مَا لَا يُطِيلُ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ قَالَ وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ قَالَ وَهَكَذَا فِي صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ هَمَّامِ بْنِ يَحْيَى وَغَيْرِهِ
