"عن إياس بن عامر قال: قال لى علىٌّ: يَا أَخَا عَكٍّ إِنَّكَ إِنْ بَقِيتَ فَستَقْرَأُ الْقُرآنَ ثَلَاثَةُ أَصْنَافٍ: صِنْفٌ لله - ﷻ -، وَصِنْفٌ لِلدُّنْيَا، وَصِنْفٌ لِلجِدَالِ، فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ (أَنْ تَكُونَ) مِمَّنْ يَقْرَأُ لله - ﷻ - فَافْعَلْ".

"On the authority of Iyas ibn 'Amir who said: 'Ali said to me: O brother of 'Akk, if you remain, the Qur'an will be read by three kinds of people: one kind for Allah, the Exalted, one kind for this world, and one kind for dispute. So if you are able to be among those who recite for Allah, the Exalted, then do so."
