In the Book of the Friday prayer, Al-Bukhari recorded that Abu Hurayrah said,
"The Prophet used to recite in Fajr on Fridays:
[الم
تَنزِيلَ]
(Alif Lam Mim. The revelation of...), As-Sajdah, and
[هَلْ أَتَى عَلَى
الإِنسَـنِ]
(Has there not been over man...)Al-Insan (76).'' This was also recorded by
Muslim. Imam Ahmad recorded that Jabir said, "The Prophet would never sleep
until he recited:
[الم
تَنزِيلَ]
(Alif Lam Mim. The revelation of...), As-Sajdah, and
[تَبَارَكَ الَّذِى
بِيَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ]
(Blessed be He in Whose Hand is the dominion) Al-Mulk (67).''
[بِسْمِ اللَّهِ
الرَّحْمَـنِ الرَّحِيمِ]
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
[الـم- تَنزِيلُ
الْكِتَـبِ لاَ رَيْبَ فِيهِ مِن رَّبِ الْعَـلَمِينَ- أَمْ يَقُولُونَ افْتَرَاهُ
بَلْ هُوَ الْحَقُّ مِن رَّبّكَ لِتُنذِرَ قَوْماً مَّآ أَتَـهُم مّن نَّذِيرٍ مّن
قَبْلِكَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ-]
(1. Alif Lam Mim.) (2. The revelation of the Book in which there is no doubt,
is from the Lord of all that exists.) (3. Or say they: "He has fabricated it''
Nay, it is the truth from your Lord, so that you may warn a people to whom no
warner has come before you, in order that they may be guided.)
