602. Abū Wā'il said: "A man asked 'Abdullāh bin Mas'ūd about this phrase: 'Ghaīri āsinin'[1] or is it Yāsīn? So he said: 'You can recite all of the Qur'ān besides this [phrase]?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Indeed a people recite it, disbursing it like Ad-Daqqal'[2] are dispersed, without it passing their throats. Indeed I am aware of the Sūrat that are comparable which the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would recite together.'" He said: "So we told 'Alqamah to ask him (what they were). He said: 'Twenty Sūrat from the Mufaṣṣal from which the Prophet ﷺ would combine, reciting every two Surah in a Rak'ah.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ) Abū 'Eisā said: This Hadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ.
