THE WAY IN WHICH THE PROPHET, praise and peace be upon
him, PRAYED

|H 1198

“One night I (Huzaifah) joined the Prophet, praise and peace be
upon him, in his voluntary prayer. The Prophet, praise and peace be
upon him, began the recitation of the "Cow" chapter. I thought he
would proceed to the bowing position after reciting a hundred verses
but he continued with its recitation. Then I thought he would
complete its recitation in one unit of prayer but he completed its
recitation and then began to recite the "Women" chapter and
thereafter the chapter of "Imran." His recitation was unhurried.
