( وَأَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْفَقِيهُ، أَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، نَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، ثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِمَعْنَى حَدِيثِ وَكِيعٍ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ:

إِنَّ أَحْسَنَ الصَّلَاةِ الرُّكُوعُ وَالسُّجُودُ، إِنِّي لَأَعْرِفُ النَّظَائِرَ الَّتِي كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ بِهِنَّ اثْنَتَيْنِ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ عِشْرِينَ سُورَةً فِي عَشْرِ رَكَعَاتٍ

The best of the prayer is the bowing (rukūʿ) and the prostration (sujūd). I know the paired surahs that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite, two in each rakʿah: twenty surahs in ten rakʿahs.
