Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 22839a
"مَنْ قَرَأَ فِي لَيلَةٍ أَلفَ آيَةٍ لَقِيَ اللهَ وَهُوَ ضَاحِكٌ فِي وَجهِهِ قِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ: وَمَنْ يَقْوَى عَلَى قِرَاءَةِ أَلفِ آيَةٍ؟ فَقَرَأَ بسمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيم، {أَلْهَاكُمُ التَّكَاثُرُ} إِلَى آخِرِهَا، ثُمَّ قَال: وَالَّذِي بَعَثَنِي بِالحَقِّ إِنَّهَا لَتَعْدِلُ أَلفَ آيَةٍ".

"Whoever recites a thousand verses in a night will meet Allah with a smiling face." It was said: "O Messenger of Allah, who is able to recite a thousand verses?" So he recited: {In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. The mutual rivalry for worldly gain distracts you} until its end. Then he said: "By the One who sent me with the truth, it is equal to a thousand verses."
