Jabir reported that Mu'adh
b. Jabal used to pray with the Apostle (ﷺ), then came and led his people in
prayer. One night he said the night prayer with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). He
then came to his people and led them in prayer beginning with Surat al-Baqarah.
A man turned aside, pronounced the taslim (salutation for concluding the
prayer), then prayed alone and departed. The people said to him:
Have you become a
hypocrite, so and so? He said: I swear by Allah that I have not, but I will
certainly go to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and will inform (him) about this. He then
came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: Messenger of Allah, we look after
camels used for watering and work by day. Mu'adh said the night prayer with
you. He then came and began with Surat al-Baqarah. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) then
turned to Mu'adh and said: Are you there to (put the people) to trial? Recite
such and recite such (and such a surah). It is transmitted on the authority of
Jabir, as told by Sufyan, that he (the Holy Prophet) had said: "By the sun
and its morning brightness" (Surah xci), "By brightness" (Surah
xciii), "By the night when it spreads" (Surah xcii), and
"Glorify the name of thy most high Lord" (Surah lxxxii). (Explaining

Jabir reported:
'Mu'adh b. Jabal al-Ansari
led his companions in the night prayer and prolonged it for them. A person
amongst us said prayer (after having separated himself from the congregation).
Mu'adh was informed of this, and he remarked that he was a hypocrite. When it
(the remark) was conveyed to the man, he went to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and
informed him of what Mu'adh had said. Upon this the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said
to him: Mu'adh, do you want to become a person putting (people) to trial? When
you lead people in prayer, recite:" By the Sun and its morning
brightness" (Surat ash-Shams)," Glorify the name of thy most high
Lord" (Surat al-A`la) and" Read in the name of Lord" (Surat
al-`Alaq), and" By the night when it spreads" (Surat al-Lail). (Explaining
