Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from al-Araj that Umar ibn al Khattab recited Surat an-Najm (Sura 53) and prostrated in it, and then got up and recited another sura.

  رواه مالك عن الزهري عن الأعرج عن أبي هريرة واختلف عن مالك فرواه جويرية وابن نافع ومحمد بن الحسن ومعن وعبد الرزاق عن مالك متصلا ورواه جماعة من أصحاب الموطأ عن مالك عن الزهري عن الأعرج أن عمر لم يذكروا فيه أبا هريرة ورواه معمر ويونس عن الزهري عن الأعرج عن أبي هريرة عن عمر وهو الصواب

  machine translationMālik narrated it from al-Zuhrī, from al-Aʿraj, from Abū Hurayrah. There is disagreement about Mālik's narration: Juwayriyah, Ibn Nāfiʿ, Muḥammad b. al-Ḥasan, Maʿn and ʿAbd al-Razzāq narrated it from Mālik as connected (muttaṣil), while a group of the companions of the Muwaṭṭaʾ narrated it from Mālik, from al-Zuhrī, from al-Aʿraj, that ʿUmar [said], and they did not mention Abū Hurayrah in it. Maʿmar and Yūnus narrated it from al-Zuhrī, from al-Aʿraj, from Abū Hurayrah, from ʿUmar, and this is the correct version. Report a problem
