Hadith #39889
وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللّٰهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي رَسُوْلُ اللّٰهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ: «اقْرَأْ عَلَىَّ». قُلْتُ: أَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَيْكَ أُنْزِلَ؟ قَالَ: «إِنِّىْ أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَسْمَعَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِىْ». فَقَرَأْتُ سُورَةَ النِّسَاءِ حَتَّى اتَيْتُ إِلٰى هٰذِهِ الْاٰيَةِ (فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلٰى هَؤُلَاءِ شَهِيْدًا) قَالَ: «حَسْبُكَ الْاٰنَ». فَالْتَفَتُّ إِلَيْهِ فَإِذَا عَيْنَاهُ تَذْرِفَانِ. (مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ)
On the authority of Abdullah bin Masoud, he said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said to me while he was on the pulpit: “Recite to me.” I said: I recite to you and to you was it revealed? He said: “I would love to hear it from someone else.” So I recited Surat An-Nisa until I came to this verse (So how about when We come from every nation? As a witness, We have brought you as a witness against these.” He said: “It is sufficient for you now.” So I turned to him and saw that his eyes were tearing up. (agreed)
