Hadith 8449

عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ أَيُّ الْقِرَاءَتَيْنِ كَانَتْ أَخِيرًا قِرَاءَةُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَوْ قِرَاءَةُ زَيْدٍ قَالَ قُلْنَا قِرَاءَةُ زَيْدٍ قَالَ لَا إِلَّا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَعْرِضُ الْقُرْآنَ عَلَى جَبْرَائِيلَ كُلَّ عَامٍ مَرَّةً فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي الْعَامِ الَّذِي قُبِضَ فِيهِ عَرَضَهُ عَلَيْهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ وَكَانَتْ آخِرَ الْقِرَاءَةِ قِرَاءَةُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), he says: I asked: Out of the two recitations, which was the last recitation, that of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) or that of Sayyiduna Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him)? Mujahid says: We said: The last one is that of Sayyiduna Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him). He said: No, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to present the Qur’an to Jibreel (peace be upon him) every year, but in the year in which he (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away, he presented the Qur’an to him twice, and the last recitation was that of Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him).
وَمِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي ظَبْيَانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ أَيُّ الْقِرَاءَتَيْنِ تَعُدُّونَ أَوَّلَ قَالُوا قِرَاءَةُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ لَا بَلْ هِيَ الْآخِرَةُ كَانَ يُعْرَضُ الْقُرْآنُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي كُلِّ عَامٍ مَرَّةً فَلَمَّا كَانَ الْعَامُ الَّذِي قُبِضَ فِيهِ عُرِضَ عَلَيْهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَشَهِدَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ فَعَلِمَ مَا نُسِخَ مِنْهُ وَمَا بُدِّلَ
(Second chain) Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Which of the two recitations do you consider to be the first? They said: The recitation of Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him)? He said: Rather, this is the last. Every year the Noble Qur’an was presented to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once. The year in which he (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away, it was presented twice. Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) was present at the time of this presentation, so he knew which part of the Noble Qur’an was abrogated and which was changed.
