[Machine] "Whoever recites Al-A'raf and An-Najm and recites in the name of his Lord who created, if he wishes, he can perform a bow with it and he will be rewarded, and if he wishes, he can prostrate, and then stand up and recite the Surah, and bow, and prostrate."  

الطبراني:٨٧٣٤حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثنا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ الْمِنْهَالِ ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ

«مَنْ قَرَأَ الْأَعْرَافَ وَالنَّجْمَ وَاقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ فَإِنْ شَاءَ رَكَعَ بِهَا وَقَدْ أَجْزَأَهُ عَنْهُ وَإِنْ شَاءَ سَجَدَ ثُمَّ قَامَ فَقَرَأَ السُّورَةَ وَرَكَعَ وَسَجَدَ»

[Machine] Whoever recites Al-A'raf and An-Najm and recites with the name of your Lord who created, he desired to bow down with the last of them, he performed the prostration of bowing and if he prostrates, let him add a surah to it.

«مَنْ قَرَأَ الْأَعْرَافَ وَالنَّجْمَ وَاقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ فَشَاءَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ بِآخِرِهِنَّ رَكَعَ أَجْزَأَهُ سُجُودُ الرُّكُوعِ وَإِنْ سَجَدَ فَلْيُضِفْ إِلَيْهَا سُورَةً»
