Hadith 1346
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ خَلَّادٍ الْبَاهِلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَكِيمِ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، قَالَ : جَمَعْتُ الْقُرْآنَ ، فَقَرَأْتُهُ كُلَّهُ فِي لَيْلَةٍ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنِّي أَخْشَى أَنْ يَطُولَ عَلَيْكَ الزَّمَانُ وَأَنْ تَمَلَّ ، فَاقْرَأْهُ فِي شَهْرٍ " ، فَقُلْتُ : دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي ، قَالَ : " فَاقْرَأْهُ فِي عَشْرَةٍ " ، قُلْتُ : دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي ، قَالَ : " فَاقْرَأْهُ فِي سَبْعٍ " ، قُلْتُ : دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي ، " فَأَبَى " .
´It was narrated that ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr said:` “I memorized the Qur’an and recited it all in one night. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘I am afraid that you may live a long life and that you may get bored. Recite it over the period of a month.’ I said: ‘Let me benefit from my strength in my youth.’ He said: ‘Recite it in ten days.’ I said: ‘Let me benefit from my strength and my youth.’ He said: ‘Recite it in seven days.’ I said: ‘Let me benefit from my strength and my youth,’ but he refused (to alter it any further).”
