Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1076 — he said: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ : نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ . عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- وَهُوَ بِمَكَّةَ I " إِذَا قَرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ يَجْهَرُ بِهِ ، فَكَانَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ يَطْرُدُونَ النَّاسَ عَنْهُ ، وَيَقُولُونَ : لا تَسْمَعُوا لِهَذَا الْقُرْآنِ وَالْغَوْا فِيهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَغْلِبُونَ وَكَانَ إِذَا أَخْفَى قِرَاءَتَهُ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مَنْ يُحِبُّ أَنْ يَسْمَعَ الْقُرْآنَ ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَلا تَجْهَرْ بِصَلاتِكَ وَلا تُخَافِتْ بِهَا وَابْتَغِ بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ سَبِيلا . I " لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ دَاوُدَ إِلَّا مُحَمَّدٌ I " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: "When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was residing in Makkah and recited the Qur'an, he would recite it aloud. At this the polytheists would drive people away from him (peace and blessings be upon him) and say: 'Do not listen to this Qur'an, and make noise during (its recitation), so that you may prevail.' And when he (peace and blessings be upon him) recited quietly, those who wanted to hear the Qur'an could not hear it. So Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed this verse: 'And do not be (too) loud in your prayer (recitation), nor (too) quiet in it, but seek a way between the two.'"
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Dawud (may Allah have mercy on him) except Muhammad (may Allah have mercy on him)."
