حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ. ح وحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْالْحَجَّاجِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَهَذَا لَفْظُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ يَحْيَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى وَأَبِي سَلَمَةَ:‏‏‏‏ ثُمَّ اتَّفَقَا عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي بِنَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَيَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَسُورَتَيْنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيُسْمِعُنَا الْآيَةَ أَحْيَانًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكَانَ يُطَوِّلُ الرَّكْعَةَ الْأُولَى مِنَ الظُّهْرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيُقَصِّرُ الثَّانِيَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكَذَلِكَ فِي الصُّبْحِ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ مُسَدَّدٌ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ وَسُورَةً.

The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم used to lead us in prayer and recite in the first two rak’ahs of the noon prayers Fatihat al-kitab and two surahs, and he would sometimes recite loud enough for us to hear the verse. He would prolong the first rak’ah of the noon prayer and shorten the second; and he did so in the morning prayer. Abu Dawud said: Musaddad did not mention the words fatihat al-kitab and surah.
