Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that during the blessed era of the Prophet (ﷺ), four companions (may Allah be pleased with them) had memorized the entire Qur'an, and all four belonged to the Ansar: Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him), Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him), Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him), and Abu Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him). I asked about Abu Zaid, so he said that he was one of my uncles.
