أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ خُبَيْبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُعَلَّى قَالَ
مَرَّ بِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا أُصَلِّي فَدَعَانِي فَلَمْ آتِهِ حَتَّى صَلَّيْتُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ فَقَالَ لِي «مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي؟» قُلْتُ كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي فَقَالَ أَلَمْ يَقِلِ اللهُ ﷻ {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَجِيبُوا لِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ} [الأنفال 24]؟ قَالَ «أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ أَعْظَمَ سُورَةٍ فِي الْقُرْآنِ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَخْرُجَ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ؟» فَذَهَبَ لِيُخْرِجَ فَذَكَّرْتُهُ فَقَالَ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ هِيَ السَّبْعُ الْمَثَانِي وَالْقُرْآنُ الْعَظِيمُ الَّذِي أُوتِيتُهُ»

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by me while I was praying and called me, but I did not come to him until I finished praying. Then I came to him and he said: "What prevented you from coming to me?" I said: I was praying. He said: Did not Allah ﷻ say: {O you who believe, respond to Allah and the Messenger} [al-Anfal: 24]? Then he said: "Shall I not teach you the greatest surah in the Qur'an before I leave the mosque?" He went to leave, and I reminded him, and he said: "Al-hamdu lillahi rabbil-'alamin. It is the seven oft-repeated verses and the great Qur'an that I was given."
