النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ الرَّمْلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ ، عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ مَمْلَكٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ قِرَاءَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَصَلَاتِهِ ، فَقَالَتْ : وَمَا لَكُمْ وَصَلَاتَهُ ؟ "

كَانَ يُصَلِّي ، وَيَنَامُ قَدْرَ مَا صَلَّى ، ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي قَدْرَ مَا نَامَ ، ثُمَّ يَنَامُ قَدْرَ مَا صَلَّى حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ ، وَنَعَتَتْ قِرَاءَتَهُ ، فَإِذَا هِيَ تَنْعَتُ قِرَاءَتَهُ حَرْفًا حَرْفًا
