حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَكِيمِ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ، قَالَ: جَمَعْتُ الْقُرْآنَ، فَقَرَأْتُ بِهِ فِي كُلِّ لَيْلَةٍ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: " إِنِّي، ، أَخْشَى أَنْ يَطُولَ عَلَيْكَ زَمَانٌ أَنْ (١) تَمَلَّ اقْرَأْهُ فِي كُلِّ شَهْرٍ "، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي، قَالَ: " اقْرَأْهُ فِي كُلِّ عِشْرِينَ "، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي، قَالَ: " اقْرَأْهُ فِي عَشْرٍ "، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي، قَالَ: " اقْرَأْهُ فِي كُلِّ (٢) سَبْعٍ "، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي، فَأَبَى (٣)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that I memorized the Holy Qur'an and recited the entire Qur'an in one night. When the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) found out, he said: "I fear that after some time you will become weary. Complete the recitation of the Holy Qur'an once every month." I submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! Allow me to benefit from my strength and youth." This continued, and the Prophet (ﷺ) stopped at twenty, ten, and then seven days. I also requested permission for less than seven days, but the Prophet (ﷺ) refused.
