A man heard another man reciting (in the prayers): ‘Say (O Muhammad): “He is Allah, the One,”’ and he recited it repeatedly. When it was morning, he went to the Holy Prophet(sa) and informed him about that as if he considered that the recitation of that surah by itself was not enough. Allah’s Apostle said, ‘By Him in Whose Hand my life is, it is equal to one-third of the Qur’an.’
