Show the chain

وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، ثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ مِخْرَاقٍ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي كِنَانَةَ قَالَ:

إِنَّ أَبَا مُوسَى ؓ جَمَعَ الَّذِينَ قَرَأَوُا الْقُرْآنَ، فَإِذَا هُمْ قَرِيبٌ مِنْ ثَلَاثِمِائَةٍ، فَعَظَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ ثُمَّ قَالَ: إِنَّ هَذَا الْقُرْآنَ كَائِنٌ لَكُمْ أَجْرًا، وَكَائِنٌ لَكُمْ ذُخْرًا، وَكَائِنٌ عَلَيْكُمْ وِزْرًا، فَاتَّبِعُوا الْقُرْآنَ وَلَا يَتَّبِعْكُمُ الْقُرْآنُ، فَإِنَّهُ مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الْقُرْآنَ هَبَطَ بِهِ عَلَى رِيَاضِ الْجَنَّةِ، وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ الْقُرْآنُ زَخَّ فِي قَفَاهُ فَقَذَفَهُ فِي النَّارِ

✧ Abu Musa ؓ gathered those who had recited the Qur'an, and they were close to three hundred. He extolled the Qur'an, then said: "This Qur'an will be for you a reward, a treasure, and a burden upon you. Follow the Qur'an, and do not let the Qur'an follow you. For whoever follows the Qur'an, it will lead him to the gardens of Paradise; and whoever the Qur'an follows, it will push him from behind and cast him into the Fire."
