Hasan (Al-Albani)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، وَسُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ، قَالاَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى الْكَاهِلِيِّ، عَنِ الْمُسَوَّرِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْمَالِكِيِّ، - أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ يَحْيَى وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ - شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقْرَأُ فِي الصَّلاَةِ فَتَرَكَ شَيْئًا لَمْ يَقْرَأْهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ تَرَكْتَ آيَةَ كَذَا وَكَذَا ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏‏ هَلاَّ أَذْكَرْتَنِيهَا ‏"‏ ‏‏ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ قَالَ كُنْتُ أُرَاهَا نُسِخَتْ ‏‏ وَقَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ كَثِيرٍ الأَزْدِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمِسْوَرُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الأَسَدِيُّ الْمَالِكِيُّ
Narrated Al-Miswar ibn Yazid al-Maliki:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) recited - Yahya (sub narrator) said: Sometimes al-Miswar said: I prayed along with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and witnessed that he recited - the Qur'an during the prayer and omitted something (i.e. some verses inadvertently) which he did not recite.

A man said to him: Messenger of Allah, you omitted such-and-such verse. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Why did you not remind me of it?

The narrator Sulayman said in his version: He (the man) said: I thought that it (the verse) was repealed.
