The Book of Prayer

وَعَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ‏- رضى الله عنه ‏- [1]‏ قَالَ : { كَانَ فُلَانٍ يُطِيلُ اَلْأُولَيَيْنِ مِنْ اَلظُّهْرِ, وَيُخَفِّفُ اَلْعَصْرَ, وَيَقْرَأُ فِي اَلْمَغْرِبِ بِقِصَارِ اَلْمُفَصَّلِ وَفِي اَلْعِشَاءِ بِوَسَطِهِ وَفِي اَلصُّبْحِ بِطُولِهِ .‏ فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ : "مَا صَلَّيْتُ وَرَاءِ أَحَدٍ أَشْبَهَ صَلَاةِ بِرَسُولِ اَللَّهِ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-مِنْ هَذَا } .‏ أَخْرَجَهُ النَّسَائِيُّ بِإِسْنَادٍ صَحِيحٍ [2]‏

Narrated Sulaiman bin Yasar: So-and-so used to prolong the first two Rak'a of the Zuhr prayer and shorten the 'Asr prayer, and recite the short Surah of Mufassal at Maghrib prayer, its medium Surah at the 'Isha' prayer, and its long ones at the Fajr prayer. Then Abu Hurairah (RA) said: "I never prayed behind anyone whose prayer more closely resembles that of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) than this person." [Reported by an-Nasa'i with a Sahih (authentic) Isnad].
