أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ عَنْ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَلَامٍ قَالَ
قَعَدْنَا نَفَرٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَتَذَاكَرْنَا فَقُلْنَا لَوْ نَعْلَمُ أَيَّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَحَبَّ إِلَى اللَّهِ تَعَالَى لَعَمِلْنَاهُ؟ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى {«سَبَّحَ لِلَّهِ مَا فِي السَّماَوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لِمَ تَقُولُونَ مَا لَا تَفْعَلُونَ كَبُرَ مَقْتًا»} [الصف 2] حَتَّى خَتَمَهَا قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ فَقَرَأَهَا عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى خَتَمَهَا قَالَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ فَقَرَأَهَا عَلَيْنَا ابْنُ سَلَامٍ قَالَ يَحْيَى فَقَرَأَهَا عَلَيْنَا أَبُو سَلَمَةَ وَقَرَأَهَا عَلَيْنَا يَحْيَى وَقَرَأَهَا عَلَيْنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ وَقَرَأَهَا عَلَيْنَا مُحَمَّدٌ

✧ A group of us from the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat down and discussed, saying: “If only we knew which deeds are most beloved to Allah, the Exalted, we would do them.” Then Allah, the Exalted, revealed: “Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth exalts Allah, and He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise. O you who have believed, why do you say what you do not do? Great is hatred…” [al-Saff: 2], until He completed it. Abdullah said: “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited it to us until he completed it.” Abu Salamah said: “Ibn Salam recited it to us.” Yahya said: “Abu Salamah recited it to us, and Yahya recited it to us, and al-Awza‘i recited it to us, and Muhammad recited it to us.”
