978. It was narrated from 'Abdullāh bin Abī Qatādah that his father said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ used to recite the Umm Al-Qur'ān and two Sūrahs in the first two Rak'ahs of Zuhr and 'Aṣr, and in the last two with Umm Al-Qur'ān, and he would make us hear a verse sometimes, and he used to make the first Rak'ah of Zuhr lengthy." (Saḥīḥ)
977 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ وَسُورَتَيْنِ، وَفِي الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ، وَكَانَ يُسْمِعُنَا الْآيَةَ أَحْيَانًا وَكَانَ يُطِيلُ أَوَّلَ رَكْعَةٍ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ»

It is essential to append additional Surahs in the first two cycles of obligatory prayers, along with the Surat Al-Fātiḥah; but in the latter two units, Al-Fātiḥah alone is enough.
