حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍعَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ
مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ الَّذِي يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ مَثَلُ الْأُتْرُجَّةِ طَعْمُهَا طَيِّبٌ وَرِيحُهَا طَيِّبٌ، وَمَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ الَّذِي لَا يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ مَثَلُ التَّمْرَةِ طَعْمُهَا طَيِّبٌ وَلَا رِيحَ لَهَا، وَمَثَلُ الْمُنَافِقِ الَّذِي يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ كَمَثَلِ الرَّيْحَانَةِ طَيِّبٌ رِيحُهَا وَلَا طَعْمَ لَهَا. وَقَالَ يَحْيَى مَرَّةً: طَعْمُهَا مُرٌّ، وَمَثَلُ الْمُنَافِقِ الَّذِي لَا يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ مَثَلُ الْحَنْظَلَةِ لَا رِيحَ لَهَا وَطَعْمُهَا خَبِيثٌ

✧ The example of a believer who recites the Quran is like a citron: its taste is pleasant and its smell is pleasant. The example of a believer who does not recite the Quran is like a date: its taste is pleasant but it has no smell. The example of a hypocrite who recites the Quran is like sweet basil: its smell is pleasant but it has no taste—and Yahya once said: its taste is bitter. And the example of a hypocrite who does not recite the Quran is like a colocynth: it has no smell and its taste is foul.
