Meaning

English

‘Awf ibn Mālik al-Ashja‘i (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I stood in prayer one night with the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him). He stood up and recited Sūrat al-Baqarah. Whenever he came across a verse mentioning mercy, he stopped and asked (Allah for mercy); and whenever he came across a verse mentioning punishment, he stopped and sought refuge (with Allah from it).

Then he bowed and paused as long as he stood, and said while bowing: "Glory be to the Possessor of greatness, dominion, grandeur, and majesty." Then he prostrated himself and paused as long as he stood and said while prostrating the same thing he said while bowing. He then stood up and recited Sūrat Āl-‘Imrān, and then recited other Sūrahs, one after another.

Source textOriginal Arabic
عن عوف بن مالك الأشجعي رضي الله عنه قال: قمتُ مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ليلةً، فقام فقرأ سورةَ البقرة، لا يَمُرُّ بآية رحمةٍ إلا وقفَ فسأل، ولا يَمُرُّ بآية عذابٍ إلَّا وقف فتعوَّذ، قال: ثم ركع بقَدْر قيامِه، يقول في ركوعه: «سُبحانَ ذي الجَبَروتِ والملَكوتِ والكِبرياءِ والعَظَمةِ»، ثم سجد بقَدْر قيامه، ثم قال في سجوده مثلَ ذلك، ثم قام فقرأ بآل عمران، ثم قرأ سورةً سورةً.
