ابن ماجہ · Hadith 828
It was narrated that Abu Sa' eed AI-Khudri said: "Thirty of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H who had been at Badr came together and said: 'Come, iet us estimate the length of the recitation of the Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H for the prayer in which Qur'an is not recited out aloud: No two men among them disagreed, and they estimated the length of his recitation in the first Rak'ah of the Zuhr to be thirty Verses and in the second Rak' ah to be half of that. They estimated his recitation in 'Asr to be half of the Meaning, "If you do not act upon it." See explanation by Sindi. last two Rak'ah of Zuhr." (Da'if)
