حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ شَيْبَانَ عَنْ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مَوْلَى بَنِي زُهْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ قَالَ وَأَحْسِبُنِي قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَنَا مِنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ
اقْرَإِ الْقُرْآنَ فِي شَهْرٍ قُلْتُ إِنِّي أَجِدُ قُوَّةً حَتَّى قَالَ فَاقْرَأْهُ فِي سَبْعٍ وَلاَ تَزِدْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ
