باب فَضْلِ مَنْ يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ وَيَشْتَدُّ عَلَيْهِ:Chapter on the virtue of one who recites the Quran and finds it difficult
Hadith 3401
حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ هُوَ ابْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيل بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ وَهْبٍ الذِّمَارِيِّ، قَالَ: "مَنْ آتَاهُ اللَّهُ الْقُرْآنَ، فَقَامَ بِهِ آنَاءَ اللَّيْلِ، وَآنَاءَ النَّهَارِ، وَعَمِلَ بِمَا فِيهِ، وَمَاتَ عَلَى الطَّاعَةِ، بَعَثَهُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَعَ السَّفَرَةِ وَالْأَحْكَامِ . قَالَ سَعِيدٌ: السَّفَرَةُ: الْمَلَائِكَةُ، وَالْأَحْكَامُ: الْأَنْبِيَاءُ، قَالَ: وَمَنْ كَانَ حَرِيصًا وَهُوَ يَتَفَلَّتُ مِنْهُ، وَهُوَ لَا يَدَعُهُ، أُوتِيَ أَجْرَهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ، وَمَنْ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ حَرِيصًا وَهُوَ يَتَفَلَّتُ مِنْهُ وَمَاتَ عَلَى الطَّاعَةِ، فَهُوَ مِنْ أَشْرَافِهِمْ، وَفُضِّلُوا عَلَى النَّاسِ، كَمَا فُضِّلَتْ النُّسُورُ عَلَى سَائِرِ الطَّيْرِ، وَكَمَا فُضِّلَتْ مَرْجَةٌ خَضْرَاءُ عَلَى مَا حَوْلَهَا مِنْ الْبِقَاعِ، فَإِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ، قِيلَ: أَيْنَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَتْلُونَ كِتَابِي لَمْ يُلْهِهِمْ اتِّبَاعُ الْأَنْعَامِ ؟ فَيُعْطَى الْخُلْدَ وَالنَّعِيمَ، فَإِنْ كَانَ أَبَوَاهُ مَاتَا عَلَى الطَّاعَةِ، جُعِلَ عَلَى رُءُوسِهِمَا تَاجُ الْمُلْكِ، فَيَقُولَانِ: رَبَّنَا مَا بَلَغَتْ هَذَا أَعْمَالُنَا ؟ فَيَقُولان: بَلَى، إِنَّ ابْنَكُمَا كَانَ يَتْلُو كِتَابِي".
Wahb al-Dhamari said: Whoever Allah grants the blessing of the Qur’an, and he recites it morning and evening, and acts upon what is in it, and dies in obedience and submission, Allah will raise him on the Day of Resurrection with «سفره» and «احكام». Sa’id bin Abdul Aziz said: By «سفره» is meant: the angels, and by «احكام» is meant the prophets. Wahb said: And whoever is eager to memorize the Noble Qur’an but forgets it, and does not abandon it (i.e., continues to recite it), he will have double the reward. And whoever is eager to memorize the Qur’an and forgets it, but departs from this world in obedience and submission, such people are honorable, and their virtue and greatness over others is like the superiority of the vulture over all birds, or like the superiority of a lush pasture over the barren land around it. Then, when the Day of Resurrection comes, it will be said: Where are those who used to recite My Book and were not distracted by tending cattle (i.e., worldly occupations)? Such a person will be granted Paradise and eternity therein. If such a person’s parents also died in obedience and submission, a crown of kingship will be placed upon their heads. They will say: O our Lord, our deeds were not so good. Allah will say: Yes, this is because your son used to recite My Book.
