Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out to us while we were in the Suffah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Which of you would like to go every morning to Buthan or al-Aqiq and bring back from there two large, beautiful she-camels?" We said: O Messenger of Allah, all of us would like that. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Does not one of you go to the mosque in the morning and learn two verses of the Book of Allah there, which are better than two she-camels; and three verses are better than three she-camels, and four verses are better than four she-camels; and likewise, however many verses he learns, they are better than that many camels, as many as are sacrificed in the days of Mina?"
