حَدِيثُ أَبِي سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُعَلَّى، ١٧٨٥١ - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي خَبِيبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُعَلَّى، قَالَ: كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي فَدَعَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَلَمْ أُجِبْهُ، حَتَّى صَلَّيْتُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقَالَ: " مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي؟ " قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي، قَالَ: " أَلَمْ يَقُلِ اللهُ {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَجِيبُوا لِلَّهِ، وَلِلرَّسُولِ إِذَا دَعَاكُمْ} [الأنفال: ٢٤] "، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " لَأُعَلِّمَنَّكَ أَعْظَمَ سُورَةٍ فِي الْقُرْآنِ، - أَوْ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ - قَبْلَ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ "، قَالَ: فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي، فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ (١) يَخْرُجَ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّكَ (٢) قُلْتَ: لَأُعَلِّمَنَّكَ أَعْظَمَ سُورَةٍ فِي الْقُرْآنِ؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ، الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ هِيَ السَّبْعُ الْمَثَانِي، وَالْقُرْآنُ الْعَظِيمُ الَّذِي أُوتِيتُهُ " (٣)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Saeed bin Mualla (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was offering prayer, and by chance, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) passed by. The Prophet (peace be upon him) called me, but I did not come until I had completed my prayer. After that, I went to him, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "What kept you from coming to me?" I replied, "I was offering prayer." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Did Allah not say: O you who believe! Respond to Allah and to the Messenger when he calls you to that which gives you life?" Then he said, "Shall I not teach you the greatest Surah of the Qur'an before you leave the mosque?" When the Prophet (peace be upon him) was about to leave the mosque, I reminded him. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "It is Surah Al-Fatiha. It is the seven oft-repeated verses and the Great Qur'an which has been given to me."
