١١٩٩٤ - حدثنا عبيد اللَّه بن موسى عن أسامة عن الزهري عن أنس أن النبي ﷺ قال: "انظروا أيهم أكثر جمعًا للقرآن فقدموه في اللحد" (١).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said (on the occasion of the Battle of Uhud): "See which of them knew more of the Qur'an by heart, and place him first in the lahd."
