حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الْأَحْمَرُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ الْمِشْرَقِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
" أَيَعْجِزُ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ ثُلُثَ الْقُرْآنِ ؟ ". قَالَ: فَشَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ، وَقَالُوا: مَنْ يُطِيقُ ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ: يَقْرَأُ قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ فَهِيَ تَعْدِلُ ثُلُثَ الْقُرْآنِ
