Hadith 1631
اُردوEn
عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ السُّدُوسِيِّ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِعِكْرِمَةَ: إِنِّي أَقْرَأُ فِي صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ بِـ {قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ} وَ {قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ}، وَإِنَّ نَاسًا يَعِيبُونَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيَّ، فَقَالَ: وَمَا بَأْسٌ بِذَلِكَ، اقْرَأْهُمَا فَإِنَّهُمَا مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ ثُمَّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ عَبَّاسِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَاءَ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ لَمْ يَقْرَأْ فِيهِمَا إِلَّا بِأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ
Hanzalah Sudusi says: I said to Ikrimah that I recite Surah Al-Falaq and Surah An-Naas in the Maghrib prayer, but people find fault with me for this. He said: There is no harm in this, you can recite them, because they are from the Qur'an. Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) even narrated this hadith to me that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came and prayed two rak'ahs and in them he recited only Surah Al-Fatihah.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … This narration is indeed weak, but sufficing with Surah al-Fatihah in every rak‘ah is correct; its clarification has already been given earlier.
