English translation

971. It was narrated that Abû Hurairah said: “In every prayer there is recitation. What the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ made us hear (by reciting out loud) we make you hear, and what he hid from us (by reciting silently) we hide from you.” (Sahih)

Arabic text

970 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا خَالِدٌ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: «فِي كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ قِرَاءَةٌ، فَمَا أَسْمَعَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَسْمَعْنَاكُمْ، وَمَا أَخْفَاهَا أَخْفَيْنَا مِنْكُمْ»

Commentary

If the congregation is huge, audibility will be poor; whereas, nights are tranquil. Therefore, the nighttime prayers have in them loud recitation (of the Qur'an).
