Hadith 115
أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ ، حَدَّثَنَا حِبَّانُ ، أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُلَيِّ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبِي ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيَّ ، يَقُولُ : خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَنَحْنُ فِي الصُّفَّةِ ، فَقَالَ : " أَيُّكُمْ يُحِبُّ أَنْ يَغْدُوَ إِلَى بُطْحَانَ أَوِ الْعَقِيقِ ، فَيَأْتِيَ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ بِنَاقَتَيْنِ كَوْمَاوَيْنِ زَهْرَاوَيْنِ يَأْخُذُهُمَا فِي غَيْرِ إِثْمٍ ، وَلا قَطِيعَةِ رَحِمٍ ؟ " ، قَالُوا : كُلُّنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يُحِبُّ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " فَلأَنْ يَغْدُوَ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَيَتَعَلَّمَ آيَتَيْنِ مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ نَاقَتَيْنِ ، وَثَلاثٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ ثَلاثٍ ، وَأَرْبَعٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ عِدَادِهِنَّ مِنَ الإِبِلِ " قَالَ أَبُو حَاتِمٍ : هَذَا الْخَبَرُ أُضْمِرَ فِيهِ كَلِمَةٌ وَهِيَ : لَوْ تَصَدَّقَ بِهَا ، يُرِيدُ بِقَوْلِهِ : فَيَتَعَلَّمَ آيَتَيْنِ مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ نَاقَتَيْنِ وَثَلاثٍ لَوْ تَصَدَّقَ بِهَا ، لأَنَّ فَضْلَ تَعَلُّمِ آيَتَيْنِ مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ مِنْ فَضْلِ نَاقَتَيْنِ ، وَثَلاثٍ وَعِدَادِهِنَّ مِنَ الإِبِلِ لَوْ تَصَدَّقَ بِهَا ، إِذْ مُحَالٌ أَنْ يُشَبِّهَ مَنْ تَعَلَّمَ آيَتَيْنِ مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ فِي الأَجْرِ بِمَنْ نَالَ بَعْضَ حُطَامِ الدُّنْيَا ، فَصَحَّ بِمَا وَصَفْتُ صِحَّةُ مَا ذَكَرْتُ .
Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir Juhani, may Allah be pleased with him, narrates: Once the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, came out while we were present at the Suffah. He said: "Which one of you would like to go to Bathan or Aqeeq and bring back two camels with high humps and shining color every day, acquiring them without committing any sin or severing ties of kinship?" The people said: "O Messenger of Allah! Each one of us would like that." So the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "If a person goes to the mosque and learns two verses from the Book of Allah, it is better for him than two camels, and learning three (verses) is better than three camels, and learning four (verses) is better than as many camels as their number." (Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says: There is a hidden (i.e., omitted) word in this narration, and that is: 'if he gives them in charity.' So the meaning of the statement of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, will be: A person learning two verses from the Book of Allah is better for him than giving two or three camels in charity. The reason is: Learning two verses from the Book of Allah is more virtuous than giving two or three camels or as many camels as their number in charity, because it is impossible that the reward for learning two verses from the Book of Allah should be likened to the acquisition of worldly goods. Therefore, the explanation I have given is correct, as I have mentioned.)
Hadith 116
أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ الْجُمَحِيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيَمَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ سَلامٍ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " تَعَلَّمُوا الْقُرْآنَ ، فَإِنَّهُ يَأْتِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ شَافِعًا لأَصْحَابِهِ ، وَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالزَّهْرَاوَيْنِ : الْبَقَرَةِ وَآلِ عِمْرَانَ ، فَإِنَّهُمَا تَأْتِيَانِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ كَأَنَّهُمَا غَمَامَتَانِ ، أَوْ كَأَنَّهُمَا غَيَايَتَانِ ، أَوْ فِرْقَانِ مِنْ طَيْرٍ تُحَاجَّانِ عَنْ أَصْحَابِهِمَا ، وَعَلَيْكُمْ بِسُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ ، فَإِنَّ أَخْذَهَا بَرَكَةٌ ، وَتَرْكَهَا حَسْرَةٌ ، وَلا يَسْتَطِيعُهَا الْبَطَلَةُ " .
Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Learn the Qur’an, for it will come as an intercessor for its reciter on the Day of Resurrection. And you must adhere to the two shining ones: Surah Al-Baqarah and Surah Aal-e-Imran, for they will come on the Day of Resurrection as if they are two clouds, or as if they are two shades, or as if they are two flocks of birds in ranks, and they will argue on behalf of their reciters (i.e., intercede for them). You must recite Surah Al-Baqarah, for taking it is a blessing, and leaving it is a cause of regret, and the false people (i.e., magicians) cannot withstand it.”
