5051. Narrated Sufyān: Ibn Shubruma said, “I wanted to see how much of the Qur'an can be enough [to recite in Ṣalāt (prayer)] and I could not find a Sūrah containing less than three Verses, therefore I said (to myself), “One ought not to recite less than three (Qur'anic) Verses (in Ṣalāt).” Narrated Abū Mas'ūd: The Prophet ﷺ said, “If somebody recites the last two Verses of Sūrat Al-Baqarah at night, it will be sufficient for him.”
5051 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيٌّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ لِي ابْنُ شُبْرُمَةَ: نَظَرْتُ كَمْ يَكْفِي الرَّجُلَ مِنَ القُرْآنِ، فَلَمْ أَجِدْ سُورَةً أَقَلَّ مِنْ ثَلاَثِ آيَاتٍ، فَقُلْتُ: لاَ يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ أَقَلَّ مِنْ ثَلاَثِ آيَاتٍ، قَالَ عَلِيٌّ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَنْصُورٌ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، أَخْبَرَهُ عَلْقَمَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ - وَلَقِيتُهُ وَهُوَ يَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ - فَذَكَرَ قَوْلَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَنَّهُ مَنْ قَرَأَ بِالْآيَتَيْنِ مِنْ آخِرِ سُورَةِ البَقَرَةِ فِي لَيْلَةٍ كَفَتَاهُ»
