حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، حَدَّثَنِي بُكَيْرُ بْنُ أَبِي السُّمَيْطِ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ الْغَطَفَانِيِّ، عَنْ مَعْدَانَ بْنِ (١) أَبِي طَلْحَةَ الْيَعْمُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " أَيَعْجِزُ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ، ، يَقْرَأَ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ ثُلُثَ الْقُرْآنِ؟ " قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ (١) ، نَحْنُ أَضْعَفُ مِنْ ذَاكَ وَأَعْجَزُ، قَالَ: " فَإِنَّ اللهَ جَزَّأَ الْقُرْآنَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَجْزَاءٍ، فَقُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ، جُزْءٌ مِنْ أَجْزَائِهِ " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (ﷺ) said to the companions, "Are you incapable of reciting one third of the Qur'an in a single night?" This seemed very difficult to the companions and they said, "Who has the strength for this? We are very weak and incapable." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah Almighty has divided the Holy Qur'an into three parts, and Surah Ikhlas has been considered as one of those parts." The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain of transmission.
