هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ
أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ
عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَت : " كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
لَمَّا بَدَّنَ وَثَقُلَ يَقْرَأُ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ ، فَإِذَا غَبَرَ مِنَ السُّورَةِ ثَلَاثُونَ أَوْ أَرْبَعُونَ آيَةً قَامَ ، فَقَرَأَهَا ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the blessed body of the Prophet (peace be upon him) became heavy, the Prophet (peace be upon him) would perform prayer sitting, as much as Allah willed, and when thirty or forty verses of the surah remained, he would stand up, then recite them and go into prostration.
