English translation
1134. It was narrated that Ḥudhaifah said: “I prayed with the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ one night. He started reciting Sûrat Al-Baqarah and he recited one hundred verses, then did not bow, rather he continued. I thought: ‘He will complete it in two Rak'ahs, but he continued.' I thought: 'He will complete it and then bow,' but he continued, until he recited Sūrat An-Nisā', then Āl 'Imrān. Then he bowed for almost as long as he had stood, saying while bowing: 'Subḥān Rabbīal-'azīm, Subḥān Rabbīal-'azīm, Subḥān Rabbīal-'azīm (Glory be to my Lord Almighty, Glory be to my Lord Almighty, Glory be to my Lord Almighty).' Then he raised his head and said: 'Sami' Allāhu liman ḥamidah (Allāh hears the one who praises Him). Then he prostrated and made his prostration lengthy, saying: "Subḥān Rabbīal-A'la, Subḥān Rabbīal-A'la, Subḥān Rabbīal-A'la (Glory be to my Lord Most High, Glory be to my Lord Most High, Glory be to my Lord Most High). And he did not come to any verse that spoke of fear or of glorifying Allāh, the Mighty and Sublime, but he said something appropriate." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
