Recitation of Surah Ash-Shams wa Duhaha in the `Isha' Prayer The Hadith of Jabir which was recorded in the Two Sahihs has already been mentioned. In it the Messenger of Allah said to Mu`adh,

«هَلَّا صَلَّيْتَ بِــ

[سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الاّعْلَى ]

[وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَـهَا ]

[وَالَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى ]»

(Why didn't you pray with (the recitation of) (Glorify the Name of your Lord the Most High) (87), (By the sun and Duhaha) (91), and (By the night as it envelops) (92))

[بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـنِ الرَّحِيمِ

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

[وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَـهَا- وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلـهَا- وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّـهَا- وَالَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَـهَا- وَالسَّمَآء وَمَا بَنَـهَا- وَالاْرْضِ وَمَا طَحَـهَا- وَنَفْسٍ وَمَا سَوَّاهَا- فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَاهَا- قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّـهَا- وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّـهَا-]

(1. By the sun and Duhaha.) (2. By the moon as it Talaha.) (3. By the day as it Jallaha.) (4. By the night as it Yaghshaha.) (5. By the heaven and Ma Banaha.) (6. By the earth and Ma Tahhaha.) (7. By Nafs, and Ma Sawwaha (Who apportioned it).) (8. Then He showed it its Fujur and its Taqwa.) (9. Indeed he succeeds who purifies it.) (10. And indeed he fails who Dassaha.)
