وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ : حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، ثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ مِخْرَاقٍ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي كِنَانَةَ قَالَ : إِنَّ أَبَا مُوسَى رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ جَمَعَ الَّذِينَ قَرَؤُوا الْقُرْآنَ ، فَإِذَا هُمْ قَرِيبٌ مِنْ ثَلَاثِمِائَةٍ ، فَعَظَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ ثُمَّ قَالَ : إِنَّ هَذَا الْقُرْآنَ كَائِنٌ لَكُمْ أَجْرًا ، وَكَائِنٌ لَكُمْ ذُخْرًا ، وَكَائِنٌ عَلَيْكُمْ وِزْرًا ، فَاتَّبِعُوا الْقُرْآنَ وَلَا يَتَّبِعْكُمُ الْقُرْآنُ ، فَإِنَّهُ مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الْقُرْآنَ هَبَطَ بِهِ عَلَى رِيَاضِ الْجَنَّةِ ، وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ الْقُرْآنُ زَخَّ فِي قَفَاهُ فَقَذَفَهُ فِي النَّارِ .
It is narrated from Abu Kinanah (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) gathered those who had memorised the Qur'an, and they numbered close to three hundred. He spoke of the greatness and rank of the Noble Qur'an and then said: "This Qur'an is indeed a source of reward for you, a treasure (for the Hereafter) for you, and (if your deeds go astray) a burden upon you as well. So follow the Qur'an and do not make the Qur'an follow you, for whoever follows the Qur'an, it will bring him down into the lush gardens of Paradise; and whoever the Qur'an follows (that is, whoever casts the Qur'an behind his back while the Qur'an demands its rights from him), it will push him by the nape of his neck and fling him into the Fire."
