5434 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ حِزَامٍ التِّرْمِذِيُّ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ، قَالَ عُقْبَةُ: «فَأَمَّنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِهِمَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ»

Commentary
In the dawn prayer (Fajr), lengthy recitation of the Glorious Qur'an was the practice of the Prophet ﷺ. But that day, he recited these two concise Surâhs in order to underline their significance, that in spite of their being brief, they are comprehensive and most excellent. So much so that they could suffice in place of lengthy recitation in the Fajr prayer.
