Hazrat Muhammad bin Jubair bin Mut'im narrates from his father, Sayyiduna Jubair bin Mut'im (may Allah be pleased with him), that he heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) reciting Surah At-Tur in the Maghrib prayer. The Imam also narrates this hadith through his teachers, Janab Ali bin Khushram and Sa'id bin Abdur Rahman Makhzumi, with the same chain of narration as mentioned above.

Sayyiduna Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) used to recite the longer of the two longest surahs in the Maghrib prayer.

Hazrat Marwan bin Al-Hakam narrates that Sayyiduna Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him, "What is the matter with you that you recite the short chapters (Qisar Mufassal) in Maghrib prayer? Indeed, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite one of the two very long chapters in Maghrib prayer." He says, "I asked, 'Which is the longer of the two longest chapters (that the Prophet, peace be upon him, used to recite)?' He replied, ' «‏‏‏‏سورة الأعراف» ‏‏‏‏'." (Ibn Jurayj) says, "I asked Ibn Abi Mulaykah, 'Which are the longest chapters?' He replied, according to his opinion, ' «‏‏‏‏سورة الأنعام» ‏‏‏‏' and ' «‏‏‏‏سورة الأعراف» ‏‏‏‏'." These are the words of the narration of 'Abd al-Razzaq. Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says, "I heard Hazrat Ahmad bin Nasr al-Muqri saying, 'I wish that I could recite «‏‏‏‏سورة الأعراف» ‏‏‏‏ once in Maghrib prayer (acting upon the Sunnah of the Prophet, peace be upon him).'"
