Muslim bin Mikhraq (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I said to the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), that some people complete the Noble Qur'an two or three times in a single night. She said: "Those people recited the Qur'an and yet (in reality) did not recite it. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would stand in prayer the whole night, and in it he would recite Surah al-Baqarah, Surah Al Imran and Surah al-Nisa', and it was his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed practice that whenever he passed by a verse that mentioned Allah's mercy and glad tidings, he would supplicate before Allah."
