مِنْ مُسْنَدِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ
From the Musnad of Abu Sa'id al-Khudri
Musnad Abi Ya'la 1107 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked: Is any one
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم، وَالْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ يَسَافٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، وَالْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم: «أَيَعْجِزُ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ ثُلُثَ الْقُرْآنِ فِي لَيْلَةٍ؟» قَالُوا: مَنْ يُطِيقُ ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ: " يَقْرَأُ: قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ فَهُوَ ثُلُثُ الْقُرْآنِ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Is any one of you unable to recite a third of the Qur'an in one night?" The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: "Who could possibly have the strength for that?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Let him recite 'Say: He is Allah, the One,' for it is equal to a third of the Qur'an." Imam al-A'mash (may Allah have mercy on him) also narrated this report through Hilal bin Yasaf (may Allah have mercy on him) from Ibn Abi Layla, and Imam Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him) transmitted it in mursal form.
