1396. It was reported from Alqamah and Al-Aswad, they both said: "A man came to Ibn Mas'ud and said: 'I recite the Mufassal (Sūrahs) in one Rak'ah.' So he responded: 'As (quickly as) one rattles poetry and as (fast as) dry dates fall off a tree? Rather, the Prophet ﷺ would recite two similar Sūrahs in one Rak'ah: An-Najm and
Ar-Rahmān in a Rak'ah; Iqtarabat and Al-Hāqqah in a Rak'ah; Aṭ-Tūr and Adh-Dhāriyāt in a Rak'ah; Idhā Waqa't and An-Nūn in a Rak'ah; Sa'ala Sā'il and An-Nāzi'āt in a Rak'ah; Wailul lil Muṭaffifin and 'Abasa in a Rak'ah; and Al-Mudaththir and Al-Muzzammil in one Rak'ah; Hal Atā and Lā Uqsimu in a Rak'ah; Amma Yatasā'alūn and Al-Mursalāt in a Rak'ah; Ad-Dukhān and Idhash-Shamsu Kuwwirat in a Rak'ah." (Ḍa'īf)
Abū Dāwūd said: This is the order of Ibn Mas'ūd, may Allāh have mercy upon him.
