The Book of Prayers
Sahih Muslim 1014
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ جَمِيعًا عَنْ هُشَيْمٍ، - قَالَ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، - عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الصِّدِّيقِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ كُنَّا نَحْزِرُ قِيَامَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ فَحَزَرْنَا قِيَامَهُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الظُّهْرِ قَدْرَ قِرَاءَةِ الم تَنْزِيلُ السَّجْدَةِ وَحَزَرْنَا قِيَامَهُ فِي الأُخْرَيَيْنِ قَدْرَ النِّصْفِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَحَزَرْنَا قِيَامَهُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الأُولَيَيْنِ مِنَ الْعَصْرِ عَلَى قَدْرِ قِيَامِهِ فِي الأُخْرَيَيْنِ مِنَ الظُّهْرِ وَفِي الأُخْرَيَيْنِ مِنَ الْعَصْرِ عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ . وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ الم تَنْزِيلُ وَقَالَ قَدْرَ ثَلاَثِينَ آيَةً .
Translation
Rapporté par Abu Sa’id al-Khudri : Nous essayions d’estimer combien de temps le Messager d’Allah ﷺ restait debout pendant les prières du dhor et du asr. Nous avons estimé qu’il restait debout, dans les deux premières unités du dhor, aussi longtemps qu’il faut pour réciter « Alif Lam Mim, Tanzil », c’est-à-dire la sourate as-Sajda. Nous avons estimé qu’il restait debout la moitié de ce temps dans les deux dernières unités ; qu’il restait debout, dans les deux premières du asr, aussi longtemps que dans les deux dernières du dhor ; et dans les deux dernières du asr, environ la moitié de ce temps. Abu Bakr, dans son récit, ne mentionne pas « Alif Lam Mim, Tanzil », mais dit : aussi longtemps qu’il faut pour réciter trente versets
