عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ أَبِي وَاقِدٍ

tabarani:3298Abū al-Zinbāʿ Rawḥ b. al-Faraj > Saʿīd b. ʿUfayr > Ibn Lahīʿah > Abū al-Aswad > ʿUrwah b. al-Zubayr > Abū Wāqid al-Laythī > ʿĀʾishah

[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed prayer with the people on the days of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. He began the prayer by making seven takbirs (saying Allahu Akbar) in the first rakah, then recited Surah Al-Qamar and Surah Al-Majid. In the second rakah, he made five takbirs and recited Surah Al-Qamar. The hour has drawn near and the moon has split."  

الطبراني:٣٢٩٨حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزِّنْبَاعِ رَوْحُ بْنُ الْفَرَجِ ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُفَيْرٍ ثنا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنِ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ أَبِي وَاقِدٍ اللَّيْثِيِّ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

«أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ يَوْمَ الْفِطْرِ وَالْأَضْحَى فَكَبَّرَ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى سَبْعًا وَقَرَأَ ق وَالْقُرْآنِ الْمَجِيدِ وَفِي الثَّانِيَةِ خَمْسًا وَقَرَأَ اقْتَرَبَتِ السَّاعَةُ وَانْشَقَّ الْقَمَرُ»

ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ مَا يَقْرَأُ الْمَرْءُ فِي صَلَاةِ الْعِيدَيْنِ

"Umar bin Al-Khattab asked Abu Waqid Al-Laithi what Messenger of Allah would recite during Al-Fitr and Al-Adha, so he said: 'He would recite: Qaf, By the Glorious Quran and the Hour has drawn near, and the moon has been cleft asunder.'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 534)  

ابن حبّان:٢٨٢٠أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ ضَمْرَةَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْمَازِنِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ

أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ سَأَلَ أَبَا وَاقِدٍ اللَّيْثِيَّ مَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي الْفِطْرِ وَالْأَضْحَى؟ قَالَ «كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ بِ ق وَالْقُرْآنِ الْمَجِيدِ وَاقْتَرَبَتِ السَّاعَةُ وَانْشَقَّ الْقَمَرَ»
