1006. It was narrated that 'Amr bin Murrah said: I heard Abû Wâ'il say: "A man said in the presence of 'Abdullâh: 'I recited Al-Mufaṣṣal in one Rak'ah.' He said: 'That is like reciting poetry. I know the similar Sûrahs that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ used to recite together.' And he mentioned twenty Sûrahs from Al-Mufaṣṣal, two by two in each Rak'ah." (Sahih)
1005 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنُ مُرَّةَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا وَائِلٍ يَقُولُ: قَالَ رَجُلٌ عِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: قَرَأْتُ الْمُفَصَّلَ فِي رَكْعَةٍ. قَالَ: «هَذًّا كَهَذِّ الشِّعْرِ، لَقَدْ عَرَفْتُ النَّظَائِرَ الَّتِي كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْرُنُ بَيْنَهُنَّ، فَذَكَرَ عِشْرِينَ سُورَةً مِنَ الْمُفَصَّلَ سُورَتَيْنِ سُورَتَيْنِ فِي رَكْعَةٍ»

Verses of poetry are generally read at a leisurely pace. But when one rehearses memorized poetry, they are read rapidly. Similarly, some Qur'an reciters, during the course of its repetition (for retention), recite it very speedily. Consequently, those who have not memorized (the Qur'an) are not able to comprehend what is being recited.
