Saʿd b. Abū Waqqāṣ
"عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ: شَكَا أَهْلُ الْكُوفَةِ أَنَّ سَعْدًا لَا يُحْسِنُ أَنْ يُصَلِّىَ فَذَكَرَ عُمَرُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، فَقَالَ سَعْدٌ: أَمَّا أَنَا فَكُنْتُ أُصَلِّى بِهِمْ صَلَاةَ رَسُولِ الله ﷺ لَا أَخْرِمُ () عَنْهَا أَرْكُدُ ( ) في الأُولَيَيْنِ وَأَحْذِفُ ( ) في الأُخْريَيْن، فَقَالَ عُمَر: ذَاكَ الظَّنُّ بِكَ أَبَا إِسْحَاقَ".

"From Jābir b. Samurah, who said: The people of Kufa complained that Saʿd did not pray well, so ʿUmar mentioned that to him. Saʿd said: As for me, I used to lead them in the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and I would not fall short () of it; I would prolong ( ) the first two rakʿahs and shorten ( ) the last two. ʿUmar said: That is the opinion held of you, Abū Isḥāq."
