303. Abū Hurairah narrated: “Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ entered the Masjid, and a man entered and offered Ṣalāt. Then he came to give Salām to the Prophet ﷺ. He returned the Salām to him and said: ‘Go back and perform Ṣalāt, for indeed you have not prayed.’ So the man returned to pray as he had prayed. Then he came to give Salām to the Prophet ﷺ. He returned the Salām to him, then [Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ] said: ‘Go back and perform Ṣalāt, for indeed you have not prayed’ until he had done that three times. So the man said to him: ‘By the One who sent you with the Truth, I do not know any better than this, so teach me.’ So he said [to him]: 'When you stand for Ṣalāt then say the Takbīr, then recite what is easy for you of the Qur'ān. Then bow until you are at rest while bowing, then rise up until you have stood up completely, then prostrate until you are at rest while prostrating, then rise up until you are at rest sitting. Do that in all of your Ṣalāt.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ) Abū 'Eisā said: This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ. [He said:] Ibn Numair has narrated this Ḥadīth from 'Ubaidullāh bin 'Umar, from Sa'eed Al-Maqbūrī, from Abū Hurairah, but he did not mention in it: "from his father, from Abū Hurairah." The narration of Yahya bin Sa'eed from 'Ubaidullāh bin 'Umar is more correct (no.302). Sa'eed Al-Maqbūrī heard from Abū Hurairah, and, he reports from his father, from Abū Hurairah. And Sa'eed Al-Maqbūrī's father's name is Kaysān, and Sa'eed Al-Maqbūrī's Kunyah is Abū Sa'd. [Kaysān was a slave who had a contract of emancipation from some of them.]

٣٠٣ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي ‌سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، «أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ، فَدَخَلَ رَجُلٌ» فَصَلَّى، ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامَ فَقَالَ: ارْجِعْ فَصَلِّ؛ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ، فَرَجَعَ الرَّجُلُ فَصَلَّى كَمَا كَانَ صَلَّى، ثُمَّ جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ، فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: ارْجِعْ فَصَلِّ؛ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ، حَتَّى فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ، فَقَالَ لَهُ الرَّجُلُ: وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا أُحْسِنُ غَيْرَ هَذَا فَعَلِّمْنِي، فَقَالَ: إِذَا قُمْتَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَكَبِّرْ، ثُمَّ اقْرَأْ بِمَا تَيَسَّرَ مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ، ثُمَّ ارْكَعْ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ رَاكِعًا، ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ حَتَّى تَعْتَدِلَ قَائِمًا، ثُمَّ اسْجُدْ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ سَاجِدًا، ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ جَالِسًا، وَافْعَلْ ذَلِكَ فِي صَلَاتِكَ كُلِّهَا. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَقَدْ رَوَى ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ: عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ. وَرِوَايَةُ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ أَصَحُّ. وَسَعِيدٌ الْمَقْبُرِيُّ قَدْ سَمِعَ مِنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَرَوَى عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ. وَأَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيُّ اسْمُهُ: كَيْسَانُ، وَسَعِيدٌ الْمَقْبُرِيُّ يُكْنَى أَبَا سَعْدٍ.

Commentary

'Do that in all of four Ṣalāt' proves that the recitation is part of each Rak'ah; so in every Rak'ah the recitation is compulsory.
