Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) used to perform prayer behind the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), then he would return (to his neighborhood) and lead his people in that prayer. The narrator says: One night, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) performed the 'Isha prayer late, so Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) performed the 'Isha prayer behind him, then he went back and began to lead his people in prayer, and he started reciting Surah al-Baqarah. Among those praying behind him, one man stepped back, performed the prayer alone, and left. The people said to him: You have become a hypocrite. He replied: No! I will go to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and inform him about this. Then that man went to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! Last night you performed the 'Isha prayer late, Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) performed this prayer behind you, then he came back and began to lead us in prayer and started reciting Surah al-Baqarah. When I saw this, I stepped back, performed the prayer alone, and left. We are people who tend camels and have to work with our hands. (The narrator says) So the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) turned towards Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "O Mu'adh! Do you want to put people to trial? Do you want to put people to trial? You should recite such and such Surahs!" Then he counted those Surahs. Sufyan, the narrator, says: Abu Zubair, the narrator, further narrated these words: "The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: You should recite Surah al-A'la, Surah al-Buruj, Surah ash-Shams, and Surah at-Tariq." Sufyan says: I said to Amr bin Dinar: Abu Zubair has narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You should recite Surah al-A'la, Surah al-Lail, Surah ash-Shams, Surah at-Tariq, and Surah al-Buruj." So Amr bin Dinar said: These are the words, or something similar to them.
