حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ ، ثنا عَمِّي ، ثنا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ ، عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ أَبِي عَائِشَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَدَّادِ بْنِ الْهَادِ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، أَنَّ رَجُلا قَرَأَ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بـ : سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الأَعْلَى ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " مَنْ قَرَأَ مِنْكُمْ بِ سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الأَعْلَى ؟ " ، فَسَكَتَ الْقَوْمُ ، فَسَأَلَهُمْ ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ كُلَّ ذَلِكَ لَيَسْكُتُونَ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ رَجُلٌ : أَنَا ، قَالَ : " قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ بَعْضَكُمْ خَالَجَنِيهَا " .
Laith bin Sa'd, Imam Abu Yusuf, and Imam Abu Hanifa (may Allah have mercy on them) narrate, Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports: A man began reciting Surah Al-A'la while following the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) in prayer. When the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) finished the prayer, he inquired: "Who among you recited Surah Al-A'la?" The narrator states: Everyone remained silent. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) asked this question three times, and each time they remained silent. Then that man said: "I did." So the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I realized that one of you was causing difficulty for me."
