Learn the Quran recitation from four companions

Abdullah ˹b. Masud˺ was mentioned in the presence of Abdullah b. Amr, and he said: That is a man whom I will continue to love after I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "Learn the recitation of the Quran from four: from Abdullah b. Masud," and he began with him, "and Salim, the freedman of Abu Hudhayfah, and Ubayy b. Kaab, and Muadh b. Jabal." He said: I do not know whether he began with Ubayy or with Muadh.

ذُكِرَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ عِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو فَقَالَ: ذَاكَ رَجُلٌ لاَ أَزَالُ أُحِبُّهُ بَعْدَ مَا سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «اسْتَقْرِئُوا الْقُرْآنَ مِنْ أَرْبَعَةٍ: مِنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، فَبَدَأَ بِهِ، وَسَالِمٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ، وَأُبَىِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، وَمُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ». قَالَ: لاَ أَدْرِي بَدَأَ بِأُبَىٍّ أَوْ بِمُعَاذٍ.
