Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Sha’bi narrates that Hazrat Sa’eed bin ‘Aas led the people in the Zuhr or Asr prayer and recited aloud in it. The people behind him began to say tasbeeh. Hazrat Sa’eed continued his recitation, and when he finished, he ascended the pulpit and said, “There is recitation in every prayer, and the daytime prayers are silent, meaning the recitation in them is done quietly. I dislike remaining silent. So do not think that I have committed any act of innovation.”
