ahmad:23049Wakīʿ > Bashīr b. al-Muhājir > ʿAbdullāh b. Buraydah from his father

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Learn Surah Al-Baqarah, for surely taking hold of it is a blessing, and leaving it is a regret, and the magicians are unable to do it."  

أحمد:٢٣٠٤٩حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا بَشِيرُ بْنُ الْمُهَاجِرِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ تَعَلَّمُوا سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ فَإِنَّ أَخْذَهَا بَرَكَةٌ وَتَرْكَهَا حَسْرَةٌ وَلَا تَسْتَطِيعُهَا الْبَطَلَةُ

darimi:3419Abū al-Mughīrah > ʿAbdah > Khālid b. Maʿdān

[Machine] "The recitation of Surah Al-Baqarah brings blessings, abandoning it causes regret, and it cannot be mastered by those lacking strength; it is the backbone of the Quran."  

الدارمي:٣٤١٩حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَعْدَانَ قَالَ

«سُورَةُ الْبَقَرَةِ تَعَلُّمُهَا بَرَكَةٌ وَتَرْكُهَا حَسْرَةٌ وَلَا تَسْتَطِيعُهَا الْبَطَلَةُ وَهِيَ فُسْطَاطُ الْقُرْآنِ»

"السُّورَةُ التي يُذْكَر فيها البَقَرَةٌ فُسْطاطُ القرآنِ فتَعلَّمُوهْا، فإن تعلُّمها بَركةٌ، وترْكُها حسرةٌ (ولا يستطعها) البطلة".
