Abu Dawud said: Ahmad bin Salih said that the Messenger of Allah offered prayer in the forenoon on the day of the Conquest of Makkah, and he narrated something similar. Ibn al-Sarh reported that Umm Hani said: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم entered upon me. This version does not mention the prayer in the forenoon.

Narrated Ibn Abi Laila: No one told us that the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم had offered Duha prayer except Umm Hani. She said that the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم had taken bath in her house on the day of the Conquest of Makkah and prayed eight rak'ahs. But no one saw him afterwards praying these rak'ahs.

Narrated Abdullah bin Shaqiq: I asked Aishah: Did the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم pray in the Duha? She replied: No, except when he returned from his journey. I then asked: Did the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم recite the surahs combining each other? She said: He would do so in the mufassal surahs.

Narrated Aishah, wife of Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم : The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم never offered prayer in the forenoon, but I offer it. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم would give up an action, though he liked it to do, lest the people should continue it and it is prescribed for them.

Narrated Simak: I asked Jabir bin Samurah: Did you sit in the company of the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ? He replied: Yes, very often. He would not stand from the place he prayed the dawn prayer till the sunrise. When the sun rose, he would stand (to pray Duha).

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Prayer by night and day should consist of pairs of rak'ahs.

Narrated Muttalib: The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Prayer is to be offered in two rak'ahs; and you should recite the tashahhud at the end of two rak'ahs, and express your distress and humility and raise your hands and say praying: O Allah, O Allah. He who does not do so does not offer a perfect prayer. Abu Dawud was asked about offering prayer at night in two rak'ahs. He said: They may be two if you like and four if you like.

Narrated Abdullah Ibn Abbas: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said to al-Abbas ibn Abdul Muttalib: Abbas, my uncle, shall I not give you, shall I not present to you, shall I not donate to you, shall I not produce for you ten things? If you act upon them, Allah will forgive you your sins, first and last, old and new, involuntary and voluntary, small and great, secret and open. These are the ten things: you should pray four rak'ahs, reciting in each one Fatihat al-Kitab and a surah. When you finish the recitation of the first rak'ah you should say fifteen times while standing: "Glory be to Allah", "Praise be to Allah", "There is no god but Allah", "Allah is most great". Then you should bow and say it ten times while bowing. Then you should raise your head after bowing and say it ten times. Then you should kneel down in prostration and say it ten times while prostrating yourself. Then you should raise your head after prostration and say it ten times. Then you should prostrate yourself and say it ten times. Then you should raise your head after prostrating and say it ten times in every rak'ah. You should do that in four rak'ahs. If you can observe it once daily, do so; if not, then once weekly; if not, then once a month; if not, then once a year; if not, then once in your lifetime.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr: AbulJawza' said: A man who attended the company of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم narrated to me (it is thought that he was Abdullah ibn Amr): The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said to me: Come to me tomorrow; I shall give you something, I shall give you something, I shall reward you something, I shall donate something to you. I thought that he would give me some present. He said (to me when I came to him): When the day declines, stand up and pray four rak'ahs. He then narrated something similar. This version adds: Do not stand until you glorify Allah ten times, and praise Him ten times, and exalt Him ten times, and say, "There is no god but Allah" ten times. Then you should do that in four rak'ahs. If you are the greatest sinner on earth, you will be forgiven (by Allah) on account of this (prayer). I asked: If I cannot pray this the appointed hour, (what should I do)? He replied: Pray that by night or by day (at any time). Abu Dawud said: Habban bin Hilal is the maternal uncle of Hilal al-Ra'i. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been narrated by al-MustAmir bin al-Riyyan from Ibn al-Jawza' from Abdullah bin Amr without referring to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم , - narrated as a statement of Abdullah bin Amr himself (mauquf). This has also been narrated by Rawh bin al-Musayyab, and Jafar bin Sulaiman from Amr bin Malik al-Nakri from Abu al-Jauza' from Ibn Abbas as his own statement (and not the statement of the Prophet). But the version of Rawh has the words: "The tradition of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم . "

Narrated Urwah bin Ruwaim: That an al-Ansari narrated to him: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said to Jafar. He then narrated the tradition in like manner.
