عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَمَّنْ سَمِعَ الْحَسَنَ يَقُولُ:
إِنَّ هَذَا الْقُرْآنَ قَدْ قَرَأَهُ صِبْيَانٌ وَعَبِيدٌ لَا عِلْمَ لَهُمْ بِتَأْوِيلِهِ وَلَمْ يَأْتُوا الْأَمْرَ مِنْ قِبَلِ أَوَّلِهِ "، وَقَالَ: ﴿كِتَابٌ أَنْـزَلْنَاهُ إِلَيْكَ مُبَارَكٌ لِيَدَّبَّرُوا آيَاتِهِ ﴾، وَمَا تَدَبُّرُ آيَاتِهِ إِلَّا اتِّبَاعُهُ بِعِلْمِهِ، وَاللهِ مَا هُوَ بِحِفْظِ حُرُوفِهِ وَإِضَاعَةِ حُدُودِهِ، حَتَّى إِنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ لَيَقُولُ: وَاللهِ لَقَدْ قَرَأْتُ الْقُرْآنَ كُلَّهُ وَمَا أُسْقِطُ مِنْهُ حَرْفًا وَاحِدًا وَقَدْ أَسْقَطَهُ كُلَّهُ، مَا تَرَى لَهُ فِي الْقُرْآنِ مِنْ خُلُقٍ وَلَا عَمَلٍ، وَحَتَّى إِنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ لَيَقُولُ: وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأَقْرَأُ السُّورَةَ فِي نَفَسٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَاللهِ مَا هَؤُلَاءِ بِالْقُرَّاءِ وَلَا الْعُلَمَاءِ، وَلَا الْحُكَمَاءِ، وَلَا الْوَرَعَةِ، وَمَتَى كَانَ الْقُرَّاءُ يَقُولُونَ مِثْلَ هَذَا ؟ لَا كَثَّرَ اللهُ فِي الْمُسْلِمِينَ مِنْ هَؤُلَاءِ
Translation
✧ Indeed this Qur'an has been recited by children and slaves who have no knowledge of its interpretation, and they have not approached the matter from its beginning." And he said: "﴿[This is] a blessed Book which We have revealed to you that they might reflect upon its verses﴾, and reflecting upon its verses is nothing but following it with knowledge. By Allah, it is not about memorizing its letters while wasting its limits, to the point that one of them says: By Allah, I have recited the entire Qur'an and I have not omitted a single letter from it, but he has omitted all of it. You do not see for him in the Qur'an any character or action. Even one of them says: By Allah, I recite a surah in a single breath. By Allah, these are not the reciters, nor the scholars, nor the wise, nor the pious. When did the reciters ever say such a thing? May Allah not increase the likes of these among the Muslims."
