It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) finished a loud (jahr) prayer and then said: "Did any of you recite the Word of Allah with me?" A man spoke up and said, "Yes, I did, O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "That is why I was thinking in my heart, what is happening to me that the Word of Allah is being taken away from me." Ibn Shihab or Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: After that, people stopped reciting (Qira'at) behind the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in loud prayers, after they heard this hadith from him (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
