حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، عَنْ مِشْرَحِ بْنِ هَاعَانَ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فُضِّلَتْ سُورَةُ الْحَجِّ بِأَنَّ فِيهَا سَجْدَتَيْنِ قَالَ " نَعَمْ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْجُدْهُمَا فَلاَ يَقْرَأْهُمَا " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ لَيْسَ إِسْنَادُهُ بِذَاكَ الْقَوِيِّ . وَاخْتَلَفَ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ فِي هَذَا فَرُوِيَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّهُمَا قَالاَ فُضِّلَتْ سُورَةُ الْحَجِّ بِأَنَّ فِيهَا سَجْدَتَيْنِ . وَبِهِ يَقُولُ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ وَالشَّافِعِيُّ وَأَحْمَدُ وَإِسْحَاقُ . وَرَأَى بَعْضُهُمْ فِيهَا سَجْدَةً وَهُوَ قَوْلُ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ وَمَالِكٍ وَأَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ .

Qutaybah told us: Ibn Lahiah told us, from Mishrah ibn Haan, from Uqbah ibn Amir, who said: I asked, “Messenger of Allah, has Surat al-Hajj been given distinction because it contains two prostrations?” He replied: “Yes. Whoever does not prostrate at them should not recite them.” Abu Isa said: The chain of this hadith is not very strong. Scholars differed on this. It is narrated from Umar ibn al-Khattab and Ibn Umar that they said Surat al-Hajj is distinguished by containing two prostrations. This is the view of Ibn al-Mubarak, al-Shafii, Ahmad, and Ishaq. Others considered it to contain one prostration; this is the view of Sufyan al-Thawri, Malik, and the scholars of Kufa.
