Chapter 31: Moderation When Reciting Qur'an In A Prayer When It Is To Be Recited Out Loud, And Making it Neither Too Loud Nor Too Soft, And When There Is The Fear Of Negative Consequences If It Is Recited Out Loud

باب التَّوَسُّطِ فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ فِي الصَّلاَةِ الْجَهْرِيَّةِ بَيْنَ الْجَهْرِ وَالإِسْرَارِ إِذَا خَافَ مِنَ الْجَهْرِ مَفْسَدَةً

Sahih Muslim 447 a

'A'isha reported that so far as these words of (Allah) Glorious and High are concerned

" And utter not thy prayer loudly, not be low in it" (xvii. 110) relate to supplication (du'a').

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّاءَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ‏{‏ وَلاَ تَجْهَرْ بِصَلاَتِكَ وَلاَ تُخَافِتْ بِهَا‏}‏ قَالَتْ أُنْزِلَ هَذَا فِي الدُّعَاءِ ‏.‏
