Sahih Muslim 458b (Book 4, Hadith 190) #8195
Shortening Prayers According to Prophet Muhammad

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the prayer of the Prophet Muhammad and how he shortened it, reciting a passage of similar length.

Simak asked Jabir b. Samura about the prayer of the Apostle . He said: He (the Holy Prophet) shortened the prayer and he did not pray like these people then, and he informed me that the Messenger of Allah used to recite" Qaf. By the (Glorious) Qur'an," and a passage of similar length.
وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، - وَاللَّفْظُ لاِبْنِ رَافِعٍ - قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ عَنْ صَلاَةِ النَّبِيِّ، فَقَالَ كَانَ يُخَفِّفُ الصَّلاَةَ وَلاَ يُصَلِّي صَلاَةَ هَؤُلاَءِ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَأَنْبَأَنِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الْفَجْرِ بـ ‏{‏ ق وَالْقُرْآنِ‏}‏ وَنَحْوِهَا
