حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذٌ قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ: نَا سُوَيْدٌ أَبُو حَاتِمٍ، قَالَ قَتَادَةُ: عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ قَالَ:
كُنَّا نَتَذَاكَرُ الْقُرْآنَ عِنْدَ بَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، يَنْزِعُ هَذَا بِآيَةٍ وَهَذَا بِآيَةٍ، فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كَأَنَّمَا فُقِئَ فِي وَجْهِهِ حَبُّ الرُّمَّانِ، فَقَالَ: يَا هَؤُلَاءِ، أَلِهَذَا بُعِثْتُمْ ؟ أَمْ بِهَذَا أُمِرْتُمْ ؟ لَا تَرْجِعُوا بَعْدِي كُفَّارًا يَضْرِبُ بَعْضُكُمْ رِقَابَ بَعْضٍ ".

✧ We were reciting the Qur'an to one another at the door of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, one contesting with a verse and another with a verse. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out looking as if pomegranate seeds had been burst on his face, and said: 'O you people, is it for this that you were sent, or were you commanded to do this? Do not revert after me to being disbelievers, striking one another's necks.'
