مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ اَلْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ مَا يُجْزِي مِنَ اَلْقَوْلِ فِي اَلرَّكْعَتَيْنِ اَلْأَخِيرَتَيْنِ قَالَ« أَنْ تَقُولَ سُبْحَانَ اَللَّهِ وَ اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اَللَّهُ وَ اَللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَ تُكَبِّرَ وَ تَرْكَعَ»
Muhammad ibn Ya‘qub, from Muhammad ibn Isma‘il, from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan, from Hammad ibn ‘Isa, from Hariz, from Zurarah, who said: I said to Abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, peace be upon him: “What suffices in terms of recitation in the last two rak‘ahs?” Imam عليه السلام said: “That you say: ‘Subhan Allah, wal-hamdu lillah, wa la ilaha illa Allah, wa-Allahu akbar’, then you say the ‘takbir’ and bow.”
