It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Waqid Al-Laithi (may Allah be pleased with him), he says that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked, "Which (surahs) did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) recite in the Eid prayers?" I replied that he (peace and blessings be upon him) recited Surah Al-Qamar «‏‏‏‏اقْتَرَبَتِ السَّاعَةُ وَانشَقَّ الْقَمَرُ» ‏‏‏‏ and Surah Qaf «‏‏‏‏ق ۚ وَالْقُرْآنِ الْمَجِيدِ» ‏‏‏‏. Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says that to my knowledge, only Fulaikh bin Sulayman has narrated this hadith in a musnad form. When Imam Malik and Ibn Uyaynah narrated this hadith with their chain, they said that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked Sayyiduna Abu Waqid Al-Laithi (may Allah be pleased with him).

In the narrations of Sayyiduna Nu'man bin Bashir and Samurah bin Jundub (may Allah be pleased with them both), it is mentioned that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) recited Surah Al-A'la «‏‏‏‏سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى» ‏‏‏‏ and Surah Al-Ghashiyah ( «‏‏‏‏هَلْ أَتَاكَ حَدِيثُ الْغَاشِيَةِ» ‏‏‏‏) in the (Eid prayers). And this (difference in recitation) is from the category of permissible differences.
