Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سَوَّارٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ قَيْسٍ الْكِنْدِيِّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَاصِمَ بْنَ حُمَيْدٍ، يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ عَوْفَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، يَقُولُ قُمْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَبَدَأَ فَاسْتَاكَ وَتَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ قَامَ فَصَلَّى فَبَدَأَ فَاسْتَفْتَحَ مِنَ الْبَقَرَةِ لاَ يَمُرُّ بِآيَةِ رَحْمَةٍ إِلاَّ وَقَفَ وَسَأَلَ وَلاَ يَمُرُّ بِآيَةِ عَذَابٍ إِلاَّ وَقَفَ يَتَعَوَّذُ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ فَمَكَثَ رَاكِعًا بِقَدْرِ قِيَامِهِ يَقُولُ فِي رُكُوعِهِ ‏"‏ سُبْحَانَ ذِي الْجَبَرُوتِ وَالْمَلَكُوتِ وَالْكِبْرِيَاءِ وَالْعَظَمَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ بِقَدْرِ رُكُوعِهِ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ ‏"‏ سُبْحَانَ ذِي الْجَبَرُوتِ وَالْمَلَكُوتِ وَالْكِبْرِيَاءِ وَالْعَظَمَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ آلَ عِمْرَانَ ثُمَّ سُورَةً ثُمَّ سُورَةً فَعَلَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ ‏.‏

Translation

Harun ibn ‘Abdullah reported to me; he said: Al-Hasan ibn Sawwar narrated to us; he said: Layth ibn Sa‘d narrated to us, from Mu‘awiyah ibn Salih, from ‘Amr ibn Qays al-Kindi, who heard ‘Asim ibn Humayd say: I heard ‘Awf ibn Malik say: I stood in prayer with the Prophet (ﷺ). He began by using the tooth-stick and performing ablution, then stood and prayed. He began reciting Surat al-Baqarah. Whenever he came to a verse of mercy, he paused and asked; whenever he came to a verse of punishment, he paused and sought refuge. Then he bowed, remaining in bowing for as long as he had stood, and said: “Glory be to the One who possesses might, dominion, grandeur, and greatness.” Then he prostrated for as long as he had bowed, and said in his prostration: “Glory be to the One who possesses might, dominion, grandeur, and greatness.” Then he recited Al ‘Imran, followed by one surah and then another, doing likewise each time.
