Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 2104 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Keep looking
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ شَاهِينَ الْوَاسِطِيُّ قَالَ : نَا هُشَيْمٌ ، عَنْ عَوْفٍ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- قَالَ : تَعَاهَدُوا الْقُرْآنَ ، فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَهُوَ أَشَدُّ تَفَصِّيًا مِنْ صُدُورِ الرِّجَالِ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ الْمُعَقَّلَةِ إِلَى أَعْطَانِهَا . لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ عَوْفٍ إِلَّا هُشَيْمٌ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ شَاهِينَ I " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Keep looking after and taking care of the Noble Qur'an, for by the One in whose Hand is my soul! It (the Qur'an) escapes from people's breasts faster than camels tied with ropes in their pens (which break loose as soon as they get the chance)."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Awf except Hushaym, and Ishaq bin Shahin is alone in narrating it."
