قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: وَجَدْتُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ فِي كِتَابِ أَبِي بِخَطِّ يَدِهِ وَقَدْ ضَرَبَ عَلَيْهِ فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ ضَرَبَ عَلَيْهِ؛ لِأَنَّهُ خَطَأٌ إِنَّمَا هُوَ عَنْ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَّامٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " تَعَلَّمُوا الْقُرْآنَ؛ فَإِنَّهُ شَافِعٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، تَعَلَّمُوا الْبَقَرَةَ وَآلَ عِمْرَانَ تَعَلَّمُوا الزَّهْرَاوَيْنِ؛ فَإِنَّهُمَا يَأْتِيَانِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ كَأَنَّهُمَا غَمَامَتَانِ أَوْ غَيَايَتَانِ أَوْ كَأَنَّهُمَا فِرْقَانِ مِنْ طَيْرٍ صَوَافَّ يُحَاجَّانِ عَنْ صَاحِبِهِمَا تَعَلَّمُوا الْبَقَرَةَ؛ فَإِنَّ تَعْلِيمَهَا بَرَكَةٌ وَتَرْكَهَا حَسْرَةٌ وَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُهَا الْبَطَلَةُ " (١)، ،

Imam Ahmad’s son says that I found this hadith written in my father’s own handwriting among his writings, but he had marked it, which, in my opinion, indicates an error in the chain of narration. This hadith was narrated by Zaid from Abu Salam, from Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him). The hadith is as follows: Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: Learn the Qur’an, for it will intercede for its reciters on the Day of Resurrection. Learn the two radiant surahs, Surah Al-Baqarah and Al-Imran, for these two surahs will come on the Day of Resurrection in the form of two canopies or two flocks of birds in ranks, and they will defend their reciters. Then he said: Learn Surah Al-Baqarah, for acquiring it is a blessing and abandoning it is a cause of regret, and falsehood (magicians) cannot overcome it.
