أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ شَقِيقٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ
لَقَدْ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِضْعًا وَسَبْعِينَ سُورَةً وَقَدْ عَلِمَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنِّي أَعْلَمُهُمْ بِكِتَابِ اللهِ وَلَوْ أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ أَحَدًا أَعْلَمَ بِهِ مِنِّي لَرَحَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ شَقِيقٌ «فَجَلَسْتُ فِي حِلَقِ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَا سَمِعْتُ أَحَدًا يَعِيبُ ذَلِكَ وَلَا يَرُدَّهُ»

✧ I recited to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ seventy-some surahs, and the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ know that I am the most knowledgeable of them regarding the Book of Allah. If I knew that anyone was more knowledgeable of it than me, I would travel to him." Shaqiq said: "I sat in the circles of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and did not hear anyone criticize that or reject it."
