Riyad as-Salihin 1010
Inducement towards the Recitation of some Special verses and Surah of the Noble Qur'an
- وعن أبي سعيد الخدري رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال في:{ قل هو الله أحد}</a>:" والذي نفسي بيده، إنها لتعدل ثلث القرآن". وفي رواية: أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال لأصحابه:" أيعجز أحدكم أن يقرأ بثلث القرآن في ليلة" فشق ذلك عليهم، وقالوا: أينا يطيق ذلك يارسول الله: فقال:" {قل هو الله أحد} ثلث القرآن.". (( رواه البخاري)).
Translation
Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported about Surat Al-Ikhlas (Chapter 112): The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, it is equivalent to one-third of the Qur'an." According to another version, he (PBUH) said to his Companions, "Is anyone of you incapable of reciting one-third of the Qur'an in one night?" They considered it burdensome and said: "O Messenger of Allah, which of us can afford to do that?" He (PBUH) said, "Surat Al-Ikhlas [Say: He is Allah (the) One] is equivalent to one-third of the Qur'an." [Al- Bukhari].
