The reader: And Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah narrated to us, saying: Abdullah ibn Numayr and Abu Mu'awiyah narrated to us. And Zuhayr ibn Harb and Ishaq ibn Ibrahim, all of them, narrated from Jarir, and all of them from al-A'mash. And Ibn Numayr narrated, and the wording is his, narrated to us...
The Shaykh : He said: narrated to us.
The reader: He said, my father narrated to us, saying: al-A'mash narrated from Sa'd ibn Ubaydah from al-Mustawrid ibn al-Ahnaf from Sahlah ibn Zafir from Hudhayfah, who said:Riyad as-Salihin 1175.
The Shaykh : Allah is the Helper.
The reader:Sahih Muslim 772 It was said that in Jarir's narration, there is an addition: he said Sunan an-Nasa'i 1068Sahih (Darussalam).
And it was narrated to us ...
The Shaykh : This is also what indicates that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) would lengthen the night prayer. Hudhayfah prayed with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) one night, meaning not every night, but just one night. So he began with al-Baqarah, meaning after al-FatihahSunan an-Nasa'i 1664Sahih (Darussalam), that is, the hundredth verse.
The student: Verse.
The Shaykh : VerseRiyad as-Salihin 1175, meaning if he completed it, he would bow, but he continued Riyad as-Salihin 1175. What is the difference between the first phrase and the second? Sunan an-Nasa'i 1664Sahih (Darussalam) And the second is ?

The reader: He said, my father narrated to us, saying: al-A'mash narrated from Sa'd ibn Ubaydah from al-Mustawrid ibn al-Ahnaf from Sahlah ibn Zafir from Hudhayfah, who said:
I performed Salat with the Prophet (ﷺ) one night, and he started reciting Surat Al- Baqarah. I thought that he would go in Ruku' (bowing posture in Salat) at the end of one hundred Ayat, but he continued (reciting); and I thought that he would perhaps recite (this Surah) in the whole Rak'ah (prayer), but he continued the recitation; I thought he would perhaps bow on completing (this Surah). He (ﷺ) then started reciting Surat An-Nisa' which he followed with Surat Al-Imran. He recited leisurely.
صليت مع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلّم ذات ليلة فافتتح البقرة فقلت يركع عند المائة ثم مضى فقلت يصلي بها في ركعة فمضى فقلت يركع بها ثم افتتح النساء فقرأها ثم افتتح ءال عمران فقرأها يقرأ مترسلاThe Shaykh : Allah is the Helper.
The reader:
And when he recited the verses which referred to the Glory of Allah, he glorified (by saying Subhan Allah-Glory to my Lord the Great), and when he recited the verses which tell (how the Lord) is to be begged, he (the Holy Prophet) would then beg (from Him), and when he recited the verses dealing with protection from the Lord, he sought (His) protection and would then bow and say: Glory be to my Mighty Lord; his bowing lasted about the same length of time as his standing (and then on returning to the standing posture after ruku') he would say: Allah listened to him who praised Him, and he would then stand about the same length of time as he had spent in bowing. He would then prostrate himself and say: Glory be to my Lord most High, and his prostration lasted nearly the same length of time as his standing.
و إذا مر بأية فيها تسبيح سبّح وإذا مر بسؤال سأل وإذا مر بتعوّذ تعوّذ ثم ركع فجعل يقول سبحان ربي العظيم فكان ركوعه نحوا من قيامه ثم قال سمع الله لمن حمده ثم قام طويلا قريبا مما ركع ثم سجد فقال سبحان ربي الأعلى فكان سجوده قريبا من قيامهSami Allahu liman hamidah, Rabbana wa lakal-hamd
سمع الله لمن حمده ربنا لك الحمدAnd it was narrated to us ...
