Hadith 3508
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ عِيسَى، عَنْ صَالِحٍ الْمُرِّيِّ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ زُرَارَةَ بْنِ أَوْفَى: أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سُئِلَ: أَيُّ الْعَمَلِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ قَالَ: الْحَالُّ الْمُرْتَحِلُ"، قِيلَ: وَمَا الْحَالُّ الْمُرْتَحِلُ ؟ قَالَ: صَاحِبُ الْقُرْآنِ يَضْرِبُ مِنْ أَوَّلِ الْقُرْآنِ إِلَى آخِرِهِ، وَمِنْ آخِرِهِ إِلَى أَوَّلِهِ، كُلَّمَا حَلَّ، ارْتَحَلَ".
It is narrated from Zurara bin Abi Awfa that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was asked: Which deed is the best? He replied: "Al-Hil (encampment) and Al-Irtihal (departure)." It was asked: What is this? He said: "The one who recites the Qur'an from beginning to end (this is al-hil), then after completing it, starts again (this is al-irtihal); whenever he finishes, he starts again."
