A man went away and prayed (seperately), and Mu'ādh was told about that, and said: 'He is a hypocrite.' When news of that reached the man, he went to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and told him what Mu'ādh had said. The Prophet ﷺ said to him: 'Do you want to cause Fintah, O Mu'ādh? When you lead the people in prayer, recite: "By the sun and its brightness",[6] "Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High"[7] "Read! In the Name of your Lord"[8] [1] Meaning, to bring the people to trial, and repel them from the religion. [2] Ash-Shams 91:1. [3] Ad-Duha 93:1. [4] Al-Lail 92:1. [5] Al-A'la 87:1. [6] Ash-Shams 91:1.
