English translation

829. It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin Abu Qatâdah that his father said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ used to recite when leading us in the first two Rak'ah of the Zuhr prayer, and sometimes he would recite such that we could hear the Verse." (Sahih)

Arabic text

829 - حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ هِلَالٍ الصَّوَّافُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ الدَّسْتُوَائِيُّ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْرَأُ بِنَا فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ، وَيُسْمِعُنَا الْآيَةَ أَحْيَانًا»

Commentary

a. There is no harm in reciting aloud a Verse or a word of the Qur'an in the otherwise 'inaudible' prayer. b. It could be that by reciting a part of the Qur'an in this manner the Prophet (ﷺ) wanted to convey the message to the Companions that even in the prayer of inaudible recitation, any part of the Qur'an can be recited after Al-Fatihah. And Allâh knows best.
