حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنَا خَلَفُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ بَهْدَلَةَ عَنْ زِرٍّ قَالَ

قَالَ لِي أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ: كَأَيِّنْ تَقْرَأُ سُورَةَ الْأَحْزَابِ ؟ أَوْ كَأَيِّنْ تَعُدُّهَا؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ: ثَلَاثًا وَسَبْعِينَ آيَةً. فَقَالَ: قَطُّ؟ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهَا، وَإِنَّهَا لَتُعَادِلُ سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ، وَلَقَدْ قَرَأْنَا فِيهَا: " الشَّيْخُ وَالشَّيْخَةُ، إِذَا زَنَيَا فَارْجُمُوهُمَا الْبَتَّةَ نَكَالًا مِنَ اللهِ وَاللهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ

✧ Ubayy b. Kaʿb said to me: “How many verses do you recite of Surah al-Ahzab, or how many do you count it?” He said: I said to him: “Seventy-three verses.” He said: “Ever? I have seen it when it was equal in length to Surah al-Baqarah, and we used to recite in it: ‘The old man and the old woman, if they commit adultery, stone them both absolutely as a punishment from Allah, and Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.’”
