Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ مُحَارِبِ بْنِ دِثَارٍ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ قَامَ مُعَاذٌ فَصَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ الآخِرَةَ فَطَوَّلَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ أَفَتَّانٌ يَا مُعَاذُ أَفَتَّانٌ يَا مُعَاذُ أَيْنَ كُنْتَ عَنْ ‏‏{‏ سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الأَعْلَى ‏}‏ وَالضُّحَى وَ ‏‏{‏ إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْفَطَرَتْ ‏}‏ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn Qudamah informed us: Jarir narrated to us, from al-Amash, from Muharib ibn Dithar, from Jabir, who said: Muadh stood and led the night prayer, making it long. The Prophet ﷺ said, Are you causing hardship, Muadh? Are you causing hardship, Muadh? Why did you not recite, Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High, and By the morning brightness, and When the sky is split open?
