Sahih Muslim 9015
” As He listens to a Prophet reciting the Qur’an in a sweet voice.”
” As He listens to a Prophet reciting the Qur’an in a sweet voice.”
Allah does not listen to anything, (more approvingly) as He listens to a Prophet reciting loudly the Qur’an in a sweet voice.
” He heard it.”
Allah has not heard anything (more pleasing) than listening to the Prophet reciting the Qur’an in a sweet loud voice.
This hadith has been narrated by another chain of transmitters but with a slight modification of words.
When any one of you gets up at night (for prayer) and his tongue falters in (the recitation) of the Qar’an, and he does not know what he is reciting, he should go to sleep.
May Allah show mercy to him; he has reminded me of such and such a verse which I had missed in such and such a surah.
May Allah have mercy upon him; be reminded me of the verse which I had been made to forget.
The example of a man who has memorised the Qur’an is like that of a hobbled camel. If he remained vigilant, he would be able to retain it (with him), and if he loosened the hobbled camel it would escape.
” When one who had committed the Qur’an to memory (or who is familiar with it) gets up (for night prayer) and recites it night and day, it remains fresh in his mind, but if he does not get up (for prayer and thus does not recite it) he forgets it.”
