Muwatta Malik #439
The Two 'Ids
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ ضَمْرَةَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْمَازِنِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، سَأَلَ أَبَا وَاقِدٍ اللَّيْثِيَّ مَا كَانَ يَقْرَأُ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي الأَضْحَى وَالْفِطْرِ فَقَالَ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ بِـ {ق وَالْقُرْآنِ الْمَجِيدِ} وَ {اقْتَرَبَتِ السَّاعَةُ وَانْشَقَّ الْقَمَرُ}.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Damra ibn Said al-Mazini from
Ubaydullah ibn Abdullah ibn Utba ibn Masud that Umar ibn al-Khattab
asked Abu Waqid al-Laythi what the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, used to recite in the prayers of Adha and
Fitr. He said, "He used to recite Qaf (Sura 50) and al-lnshiqaq
(Sura84)."
