حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو طَاهِرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَمَّارٍ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ حُرَيْثٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي أَحْمَدَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ:

بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَعْثًا وَهُمْ نَفَرٌ، فَدَعَاهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: " مَاذَا مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ " ؟ فَاسْتَقْرَأَهُمْ، حَتَّى مَرَّ عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ وَهُوَ مِنْ أَحْدَثِهِمْ سِنًّا، قَالَ: " مَاذَا مَعَكَ يَا فُلَانُ ؟ " قَالَ: مَعِي كَذَا وَكَذَا، وَسُورَةُ الْبَقَرَةِ. قَالَ: " مَعَكَ سُورَةُ الْبَقَرَةِ ؟ " قَالَ: نَعَمْ قَالَ: " اذْهَبْ، فَأَنْتَ أَمِيرُهُمْ "، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ هُوَ مِنْ أَشْرَفِهِمْ: وَالَّذِي كَذَا وَكَذَا، يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، مَا مَنَعَنِي أَنْ أَتَعَلَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ إِلَّا خَشْيَةَ أَنْ لَا أَقُومَ بِهِ. قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: تَعَلَّمِ الْقُرْآنَ فَاقْرَأْهُ، وَارْقُدْ؛ فَإِنَّ مَثَلَ الْقُرْآنِ لِمَنْ تَعَلَّمَهُ فَقَرَأَهُ وَقَامَ بِهِ كَمَثَلِ جِرَابٍ مَحْشُوٍّ مِسْكًا، يَفُوحُ رِيحُهُ عَلَى كُلِّ مَكَانٍ، وَمَنْ تَعَلَّمَهُ فَرَقَدَ وَهُوَ فِي جَوْفِهِ كَمَثَلِ جِرَابٍ أُوكِيَ عَلَى مِسْكٍ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent out a military expedition, and they were a small group. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ called them and said: "How much of the Quran do you have with you?" So he assessed them until he came to a man among them who was one of the youngest of them in age. He said: "How much do you have with you, O so-and-so?" He said: "I have such-and-such, and Surah al-Baqarah." He said: "You have Surah al-Baqarah?" He said: "Yes." He said: "Go, for you are their leader." A man who was one of their nobles said: "By the One who is such-and-such, O Messenger of Allah, nothing prevented me from learning the Quran except fear that I would not be able to fulfill it." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Learn the Quran, recite it, and sleep. For the likeness of the Quran for one who learns it, recites it, and acts upon it is like a leather bag filled with musk, whose fragrance spreads everywhere. And one who learns it and sleeps while it is in his heart is like a leather bag tied over musk."
