حَدَّثَنَا هُدْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ زِرٍّ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ ؓ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَقِيَ جِبْرِيلَ عِنْدَ أَحْجَارِ الْمُرِّيِّ " فَقَالَ: إِنِّي أُرْسِلْتُ إِلَى أُمَّةٍ أُمِّيَّةٍ، وَإِلَى مَنْ لَمْ يَقْرَأْ كِتَابًا قَطُّ، فَقَالَ جِبْرِيلُ: " إِنَّ اللهَ يَأْمُرُكَ أَنْ تَقْرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ عَلَى حَرْفٍ " فَقَالَ مِيكَائِيلُ: " اسْتَزِدْهُ " فَقَالَ: " اقْرَأْ عَلَى حَرْفَيْنِ " فَقَالَ مِيكَائِيلُ: " اسْتَزِدْهُ ": حَتَّى بَلَغَ سَبْعَةَ أَحْرُفٍ

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ met Gabriel at the stones of al-Murri. He said: "I have been sent to an unlettered nation, and to those who have never read a book." Gabriel said: "God commands you to recite the Qur'an according to one harf." Michael said: "Ask him for more." He said: "Recite according to two harfs." Michael said: "Ask him for more," until it reached seven harfs.
