[Machine] I said to Ibn Abbas, "I am a swift reader and I may have read the Quran in one night or two." Ibn Abbas said, "I am more amazed by you reading one Surah than if you were to do what you do. If you are going to do it, then read it in a way that your ears can hear and your heart can understand."
قُلْتُ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ إِنِّي رَجُلٌ سَرِيعُ الْقِرَاءَةِ وَرُبَّمَا قَرَأْتُ الْقُرْآنَ فِي لَيْلَةٍ مَرَّةً أَوْ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ لَأَنْ أَقْرَأَ سُورَةً وَاحِدَةً أَعْجَبُ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَفْعَلَ مِثْلَ الَّذِي تَفْعَلُ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ فَاعِلًا لَا بُدَّ فَاقْرَأْهُ قِرَاءَةً تُسْمِعُ أُذُنَيْكَ وَيَعِيهِ قَلْبُكَ
