It was narrated that Abu Salamah said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم used to recite the Umm Al-Qur’an and two Surahs in the first two Rak’ahs of Zuhr and ‘Asr, and he would make us hear a verse sometimes, and he used to make the first Rak’ah of Zuhr lengthy, and he did likewise in Subh.” (Sahih)
