قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " اقْرَأْ عَلَىَّ ". قَالَ قُلْتُ أَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَيْكَ أُنْزِلَ قَالَ " إِنِّي أَشْتَهِي أَنْ أَسْمَعَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِي ". قَالَ فَقَرَأْتُ النِّسَاءَ حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغْتُ {فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلاَءِ شَهِيدًا}. قَالَ لِي " كُفَّ ـ أَوْ أَمْسِكْ ـ ". فَرَأَيْتُ عَيْنَيْهِ تَذْرِفَانِ.
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said (to me), "Recite the Qur'an to me." I said, "Shall I recite (it) to you while it hasbeen revealed to you?" He said, "I like to hear it from another person." So I recited Surat An-Nisa(The Women) till I reached the Verse: 'How (will it be) then when We bring from each nation awitness, and We bring you (O Muhammad) as a witness against these people.' (4.41) Then he said tome, "Stop!" Thereupon I saw his eyes overflowing with tears.
