أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا وَائِلٍ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَجُلٌ عِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللهِ §قَرَأْتُ الْمُفَصَّلَ فِي رَكْعَةٍ قَالَ
«هَذًا كَهَذِّ الشِّعْرِ؟ لَقَدْ عَرَفْتُ النَّظَائِرَ الَّتِي كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرِنُ بَيْنَهُنَّ فَذَكَرَ عِشْرِينَ سُورَةً مِنَ الْمُفَصَّلِ سُورَتَيْنِ سُورَتَيْنِ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةً»

✧ Is this fast recitation like the fast recitation of poetry? I indeed know the corresponding sūrahs that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to combine. He mentioned twenty sūrahs from the Mufaṣṣal, two sūrahs in each rakʿah.
