Hadith 9

(The book) ‘Qurb Al Isnaad’, and ‘Kitab Al Masaail’ – by their chains, ‘From Ali son of Ja’far-asws, from his brother-asws Musa-asws, he said, ‘I asked him-asws about a man who intends a Chapter, but he recites another, ‘Is it correct for him-asws to recite half of it, then returns to the Chapter which he had intended? ’
He-asws said: ‘Yes, for as long as it does not happen to be Surah Al-Tawheed and Surah Al-Kafiroun’. And I asked him-asws about the recitation in the Friday Salat, ‘What should he be reciting with? ’
He-asws said: ‘Surah Al-Munafiqoun, and if he takes in another, and even if it is Surah Al-Tawheed, he should terminate it from its beginning and return to it’’. [8]
Explanation (Ahadeeth only) – From Ubeyd Bin Zurara, from Abu Abdullah-asws regarding the men intending to recite a Chapter, but he recites another. He-asws said: ‘For him is to return for as long as between it his reciting it its third’’. It is reported by the Sheykh, from Sabbah Bin Sabeeh who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah-asws, ‘A man intends to pray the Friday Salat, so he recites Surah Al-Tawheed’. He-asws said: ‘He should complete two Cycles, then he should resume’’.
