Musnad Abi Ya'la 16 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by, accompanied
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ، حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجُعْفِيُّ ، عَنْ زَائِدَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ أَبِي النَّجُودِ ، عَنْ زِرٍّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَرَّ بَيْنَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ ، وَعَبْدُ اللهِ يُصَلِّي ، فَافْتَتَحَ سُورَةَ النِّسَاءِ فَسَنَحَ لَهَا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : مَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ غَضًّا كَمَا أُنْزِلَ فَلْيَقْرَأْهُ قِرَاءَةَ ابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ ، ثُمَّ سَأَلَ ، فَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : سَلْ تُعْطَهْ ، سَلْ تُعْطَهْ ، فَقَالَ فِيمَا يَسْأَلُ : اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ إِيمَانًا لَا يَرْتَدُّ ، وَنَعِيمًا لَا يَنْفَدُ ، وَمُرَافَقَةَ نَبِيِّنَا مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي أَعْلَى جَنَّةِ الْخُلْدِ ، فَأَتَى عُمَرُ عَبْدَ اللهِ لِيُبَشِّرَهُ ، فَوَجَدَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ خَارِجًا قَدْ سَبَقَهُ ، فَقَالَ : إِنْ فَعَلْتَ ، إِنَّكَ لَسَبَّاقٌ بِالْخَيْرِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by, accompanied by Sayyiduna Abu Bakr and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), while Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) was praying. He began reciting Surah al-Nisa and recited it with great excellence and fluency. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever would like to recite the Qur'an as fresh as it was revealed, let him recite it according to the recitation of Ibn Umm Abd (Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud, may Allah be pleased with him)." Then Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) began to supplicate, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) began saying: "Ask, and you will be given; ask, and you will be given." Among what he asked in his supplication was: 'Allahumma inni as'aluka imanan la yartadd, wa na'iman la yanfad, wa murafaqata nabiyyina Muhammadin (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) fi a'la jannat al-khuld' (O Allah, I ask You for faith that never departs, blessings that never end, and the companionship of our Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) in the highest level of the Garden of Eternity). After this, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) went to give Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) this glad tidings, and saw Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) coming out from there, having already gone ahead of him in this good deed. So Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "If you have done so, then the truth is that you are always the one who races ahead in good deeds."
