Sunan an-Nasa'i 983

Ubaidullah ibn Said informed us: Abdullah ibn al-Harith narrated to us, from al-Dahhak ibn Uthman, from Bukayr ibn Abdullah ibn al-Ashajj, from Sulayman ibn Yasar, from Abu Hurairah, who said: I have never prayed behind anyone whose prayer more closely resembled that of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ than so-and-so. We prayed behind that man. He would prolong the first two units of the noon prayer and shorten the last two; he would keep the afternoon prayer brief. In the sunset prayer he recited the short surahs of al-Mufassal. In the night prayer he recited By the sun and its brightness, and similar surahs. In the dawn prayer he recited two long surahs.
