حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْجَهْمِ السِّمَّرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَاتِمٍ سَهْلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ السِّجِسْتَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا بْنِ أَبِي الْحَوَاجِبِ الْكُوفِيُّ قَالَ:
كُنْتُ آخِذًا بِيَدِ الْأَعْمَشِ فَقَالَ: قَرَأْتُ الْقُرْآنَ عَلَى يَحْيَى بْنِ وَثَّابٍ ثَلَاثِينَ مَرَّةً كُلُّ ذَلِكَ أَقْرَأُ: وَالرُّجْزَ فَاهْجُرْ، وَكَذَلِكَ قَرَأَ يَحْيَى عَلَى عَلْقَمَةَ، وَعَلْقَمَةُ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، وَابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ
