Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 11680

وَعَنِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ : قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ : لَوْ قِيلَ لَأَحَدِكُمْ : لَوْ غَدَوْتَ إِلَى الْقَرْيَةِ كَانَ لَكَ أَرْبَعُ قَلَائِصَ ، كَانَ يَقُولُ : قَدْ أَبَى اللَّهُ لِي أَنْ أَغْدُوَ ، وَلَوْ أَنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ غَدَا فَتَعَلَّمَ آيَةً مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ كَانَتْ خَيْرًا لَهُ مِنْ أَرْبَعٍ وَأَرْبَعٍ وَأَرْبَعٍ ، حَتَّى عَدَّ شَيْئًا كَثِيرًا . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ ، إِلَّا أَنَّ أَبَا إِسْحَاقَ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ .
Abu Ishaq states: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "If one of you were told: 'If you go to the village in the morning, you will get four she-camels,' he would say: 'When will morning come and when will I go?' Yet if a person goes in the morning and learns one verse of the Book of Allah, it is better for him than four, and another four, and another four, until he counted a large number and said (that it is better even than receiving that many she-camels)."
Imam al-Tabarani recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except that Abu Ishaq did not hear from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him).
