حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ عِلاَقَةَ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ، أَنَّهُ صَلَّى مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم الصُّبْحَ

فَقَرَأَ فِي أَوَّلِ رَكْعَةٍ ‏‏{‏ وَالنَّخْلَ بَاسِقَاتٍ لَهَا طَلْعٌ نَضِيدٌ‏}‏ وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ ‏{‏ ق‏}‏ ‏.‏

Ziyad b. 'Ilaqa reported it on the authority of his uncle that he said the morning prayer with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he recited in the first rak'ah:

"And the tall palm trees having flower spikes piled one above another (l. 10) or perhaps Surah Qaf."

Authentic Mishkat al-Masabih 835

Jabir b. Samura said that the. Prophet used to recite at the dawn prayer, "Qaf. By the glorious Qur'an"* and a passage of similar length, and his prayer afterwards was shortened. *Al-Qur’an; 50. Muslim transmitted it.

وَعَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الْفَجْرِ ب (ق وَالْقُرْآن الْمجِيد) وَنَحْوِهَا وَكَانَتْ صَلَاتُهُ بَعْدُ تَخْفِيفًا. رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ

Authentic Sahih Muslim 457a

I said prayer and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) led it and he recited" Qaf. (I.). By the Glorious Qur'an," till he recited" and the tall palm trees" (l. 10). I wanted to repeat it but I could not follow its significance.

وَصَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَرَأَ ‏‏{‏ ق وَالْقُرْآنِ الْمَجِيدِ‏}‏ حَتَّى قَرَأَ ‏‏{‏ وَالنَّخْلَ بَاسِقَاتٍ‏}
