Hadith 3380
حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُلَيٍّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبِي، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ، يَقُول: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: "تَعَلَّمُوا كِتَابَ اللَّهِ وَتَعَاهَدُوهُ، وَتَغَنَّوْا بِهِ وَاقْتَنُوهُ، فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ أَوْ: فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَهُوَ أَشَدُّ تَفَلُّتًا مِن الْمَخَاضِ فِي الْعُقُلِ".
Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Recite the Book of Allah and safeguard it (i.e., repeat it frequently), hum it, and adhere to it. By the One in Whose hand is my soul (or he said: By the One in Whose control is the soul of Muhammad), for it slips away even more quickly than a camel that is let loose.”
