حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا مَهْدِيٌّ حَدَّثَنَا وَاصِلٌ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ قَالَ غَدَوْنَا عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ فَسَلَّمْنَا بِالْبَابِ فَأُذِنَ لَنَا فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ الْقَوْمِ قَرَأْتُ الْمُفَصَّلَ الْبَارِحَةَ كُلَّهُ فَقَالَ هَذًّا كَهَذِّ الشِّعْرِ إِنَّا قَدْ سَمِعْنَا الْقِرَاءَةَ وَإِنِّي لَأَحْفَظُ الْقَرَائِنَ الَّتِي كَانَ يَقْرَأُ بِهِنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَمَانِيَ عَشْرَةَ سُورَةً مِنْ الْمُفَصَّلِ وَسُورَتَيْنِ مِنْ آلِ حم
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 4410
It was crated that Abu iVaa'il said: We came in the morning to 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ood one day, after Fajr prayer. We said salaam at the door and permission was given to us to enter. One man among the people said: Last night I recited all of al-mufassal [soorahs from Qaaf to the end of the Qur'an]. He said: This is like the hasty recitation of poetry! We used to hear the recitation and i remember the pairs that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) used to recite: eighteen soorahs from al-mufassal and two soorahs from the family of Ha-Meem.
