The Messenger of Allah said, "Whoever diligently observes these prescribed prayers will not be recorded among the heedless, and whoever recites a hundred verses in a night will not be recorded among the heedless, or will be recorded among the devoutly obedient."
قال رسول الله: من حافظ على هؤلاء الصلوات المكتوبات لم يكتب من الغافلين، ومن قرأ في ليلة مائة آية لم يكتب من الغافلين، أو كتب من القانتين.
Ibn Khuzayma (1142) and Hakim (1/308) both narrated it via the route of Abu Hamza Sukkari, from Amash, from Abu Salih, from Abu Hurairah, and the wording given is that of Ibn Khuzayma. As for Hakim, he narrated it without the element of doubt, and his wording was, "Whoever recites a hundred verses in a night is recorded among the devout." He said, "Sahih according to the criterion of the two Shaykhs." I say, it is as he said, but Saeed bin Mansur (136) narrated it from Abu Ahwas, from Abu Sinan, from Abu Salih, saying, from Abu Saeed Khudri, or from Abu Hurairah, with doubt as to which. Abu Sinan is Darrar bin Mura Kufi Shaybani, who was deemed reliable by Abu Hatim, Nasai, Ajli, and others. Muslim and the authors of the Sunan works other than Ibn Majah narrated from him. However, Abu Hamza Sukkari, who is Muhammad bin Maymun Marwazi, is among the men relied upon by the entire community of scholars and is more reliable than him, and he narrated it without the doubt, so it seems likely that the correct view is that it is from the hadith of Abu Hurairah.Ibn Khuzayma (1143) and Hakim (1/308–309) also both narrated it from the hadith of Saad bin Abdul-Hameed bin Jafar, who said, Abdul-Rahman bin Abu Zinad informed us, from Musa bin Uqba, from Ubaydullah bin Salman, from his father Abu Abdullah Salman Aghar, from Abu Hurairah, mentioning something similar. Hakim said, "Sahih according to the criterion of Muslim." I say, it is not as he said, for Saad bin Abdul-Hameed bin Jafar Ansari was not narrated from by Muslim at all. Rather, the authors of the Sunan works other than Abu Dawud narrated from him, and this is why the Hafiz in Taqrib marked him with (t, s, q), though he is hasan al-hadith. As for Abdul-Rahman bin Abu Zinad, although Muslim did not rely on him as a proof, he did narrate from him in the introduction, as the Hafiz indicated in Taqrib with "muq," and this designation has dropped out of some printed copies, so beware of that, while Hakim makes no distinction between the introduction and the body of the book.
