اُردوEn
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ ، عَنْ الْقَرْثَعِ ، عَنِ قَيْسٍ أَوْ ابْنِ قَيْسٍ رَجُلٍ مِنْ جُعْفِيٍّ ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، قَالَ : مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ ، عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَهُوَ يَقْرَأُ ، فَقَامَ ، فَسَمِعَ قِرَاءَتَهُ ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ، وَسَجَدَ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " سَلْ تُعْطَهْ ، سَلْ تُعْطَهْ " ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ مَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَالَ : " مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ غَضًّا كَمَا أُنْزِلَ ، فَلْيَقْرَأْهُ مِنَ ابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ " ، قَالَ : فَأَدْلَجْتُ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ لِأُبَشِّرَهُ بِمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : فَلَمَّا ضَرَبْتُ الْبَابَ ، أَوْ قَالَ : لَمَّا سَمِعَ صَوْتِي ، قَالَ : مَا جَاءَ بِكَ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ ؟ قُلْتُ : جِئْتُ لِأُبَشِّرَكَ بِمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : قَدْ سَبَقَكَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، قُلْتُ : إِنْ يَفْعَلْ فَإِنَّهُ سَبَّاقٌ بِالْخَيْرَاتِ ، مَا اسْتَبَقْنَا خَيْرًا قَطُّ إِلَّا سَبَقَنَا إِلَيْهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), and I was also with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) was reciting the Qur'an at that time, and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) stood to listen to his recitation. Then when Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) bowed and prostrated, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Ask, you will be given." Then while returning, he said: Whoever wishes to recite the Qur'an as fresh as it was revealed, he should recite it according to the recitation of Ibn Umm Abd. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I thought in my heart that I must convey this good news to him tonight. So when I knocked on his door, he said: Is everything alright at this hour of the night? I said: I have come to give you glad tidings from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). He said: Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) has already preceded you. I said: If he has done so, then he is indeed foremost in doing good deeds. In whatever matter I tried to compete with him, he always surpassed me in every such matter.
