Recitation in the two rak'ahs of Fajr

ibnkhuzaymah:1051Hārūn b. Isḥāq al-Hamdānī > Abū Khālid > ʿUthmān b. Ḥakīm > b. Yasār, who is Saʿīd b. Yasār > b. ʿAbbās

[AI] What the Messenger of Allah ﷺ most often recited in the two rak'ahs of Fajr was: "Say, 'We believe in Allah and what has been sent down to us and what was sent down to Ibrahim'" to the end of the verse; and in the other: "Say, 'O People of the Book, come to a word that is equitable between us and you'" up to His saying, "Bear witness that we are Muslims."

ابن خزيمة:١٠٥١حدثنا هَارُونُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ حدثنا أَبُو خَالِدٍ قال حدثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ عَنِ ابْنِ يَسَارٍ وَهُوَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

أَكْثَرُ مَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُقْرَأُ فِي رَكْعَتَيِ الْفَجْرِ: ﴿قُولُوا آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ وَمَا أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْنَا وَمَا أُنْزِلَ إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ﴾ إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ، وَفِي الْأُخْرَى: ﴿قُلْ يَا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ تَعَالَوْا إِلَى كَلِمَةٍ سَوَاءٍ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ﴾ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ: ﴿اشْهَدُوا بِأَنَّا مُسْلِمُونَ﴾.
