حَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْحَافِظُ أَنْبَأَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ بَكْرٍ ثنا مِقْدَامُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ بْنِ تَلِيدٍ الرُّعَيْنِيُّ ثنا خَالِدُ بْنُ نِزَارٍ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
قَامَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَيُّ الْعَمَلِ أَفْضَلُ؟ أَوْ أَيُّ الْعَمَلِ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «الْحَالُّ الْمُرْتَحِلُ الَّذِي يَفْتَحُ الْقُرْآنَ وَيَخْتِمُهُ صَاحِبُ الْقُرْآنِ يَضْرِبُ مِنْ أَوَّلِهِ إِلَى آخِرِهِ وَمِنْ آخِرِهِ إِلَى أَوَّلِهِ كُلَّمَا حَلَّ ارْتَحَلَ»

✧ A man stood up to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, which deed is best? Or which deed is most beloved to Allah?' He said, 'The one who alights and departs: the one who opens the Qur'an and seals it. The companion of the Qur'an strikes from its beginning to its end, and from its end to its beginning. Whenever he alights, he departs.'
