6106. Narrated Jābir bin 'Abdullāh رضي الله عنه Mu'ādḥ bin Jabal رضي الله عنه used to offer Ṣalāt (prayer) with the Prophet ﷺ and then go to lead his people in Ṣalāt (prayer). Once he led the people in Ṣalāt (prayer) and recited Sūrat Al-Baqarah. A man left (the row of the people offering Ṣalāt) and offered (light) Ṣalāt (prayer) (separately) and went
away. When Mu'ād̄h came to know about it, he said, "He (that man) is a hypocrite." Later, that man heard what Mu'ād̄h said about him, so he came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Allāh's Messenger! We are people who work with our own hands and irrigate (our farms) with our camels. Last night Mu'ād̄h led us in the (night) Ṣalāt (prayer) and he recited Sūrat Al-Baqarah, so I offered my prayer separately, and because of that, he accused me of being a hypocrite." The Prophet ﷺ called Mu'ād̄h and said thrice, "O Mu'ād̄h! You are putting the people to trials? Recite, 'Wash-shamsi wad-duhāhā (Surah No. 91) or 'Sabbih isma Rabbikal-A'lā' (Surah No. 87) or the like."(1)
