4996. Narrated Shaqīq: 'Abdullāh said, "I learnt An-Nazā'ir(1) which the Prophet ﷺ used to recite in pairs in each Rak'a." Then 'Abdullāh got up and 'Alqama accompanied him to his house, and when 'Alqama came out, we asked him (about those Sūrah). He said, "They are twenty Sūrah that start from the beginning of Al-Mufāṣṣal, according to the arrangement done by Ibn Mas'ūd, and end with the Sūrah starting with Hā Mīm.
4996 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: «لَقَدْ تَعَلَّمْتُ النَّظَائِرَ الَّتِي كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْرَؤُهُنَّ اثْنَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ، فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ»، فَقَامَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَدَخَلَ مَعَهُ عَلْقَمَةُ، وَخَرَجَ عَلْقَمَةُ فَسَأَلْنَاهُ، فَقَالَ: عِشْرُونَ سُورَةً مِنْ أَوَّلِ المُفَصَّلِ عَلَى تَأْلِيفِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، آخِرُهُنَّ الحَوَامِيمُ: حم الدُّخَانِ وَعَمَّ يَتَسَاءَلُونَ
