عَنْ عُثْمَانَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَفَّانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَفْضَلُكُمْ وَفِي لَفْظٍ إِنَّ خَيْرَكُمْ مَنْ تَعَلَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ وَعَلَّمَهُ
Narrated from Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The best and most virtuous among you is the one who learns the Holy Qur'an and teaches it.
