Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ طُولَ صَلَاةِ الرَّجُلِ وَقِصَرَ خُطْبَتِهِ مَئِنَّةٌ مِنْ فِقْهِهِ فَأَطِيلُوا الصَّلَاة واقصروا الْخطْبَة وَإِن من الْبَيَان سحرًا» . رَوَاهُ مُسلم

Ammar reported that he heard the Messenger of God say: A man's long prayer and short sermon are signs of his understanding. So lengthen the prayer and shorten the sermon, for eloquence can have a spellbinding effect. Muslim transmitted it.
