[Machine] "We sat, a group from the companions of the Prophet ﷺ , and said, 'If we knew which actions are most beloved to Allah, we would perform them.' So Allah, the Most High, revealed: 'Glorify Allah, whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. He is the Almighty, the All-Wise. O you who believe! Why do you say that which you do not do? It is most hateful to Allah that you say that which you do not do. Indeed, Allah loves those who fight in His cause in a line as though they are a [single] structure joined firmly.' He recited this until the end of the Surah, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited it to us. Muhammad ibn Kathir added in his narration, 'And Al-Awza'i recited it to us in this way.' Muhammad ibn Kathir said, 'And Al-Awza'i recited it to us in this way.' Ibrahim said, 'And Muhammad ibn Kathir recited it to us until the end of the Surah in this way.' Abu Amr ibn As-Sammak said, 'And Ibrahim ibn Al-Haytham recited it to us until the end of the Surah in this way.'"
قَعَدْنَا نَفَرٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقُلْنَا لَوْ نَعْلَمُ أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَمِلْنَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى {سَبَّحَ لِلَّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لِمَ تَقُولُونَ مَا لَا تَفْعَلُونَ كَبُرَ مَقْتًا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَنْ تَقُولُوا مَا لَا تَفْعَلُونَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الَّذِينَ يُقَاتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِهِ صَفًّا كَأَنَّهُمْ بُنْيَانٌ مَرْصُوصٌ} إِلَى آخِرِ السُّورَةِ وَقَرَأَهَا عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ زَادَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ فِي حَدِيثِهِ وَقَالَ لَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ «قَرَأَهَا عَلَيْنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ هَكَذَا» قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ «وَقَرَأَهَا عَلَيْنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ هَكَذَا» قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ «وَقَرَأَهَا عَلَيْنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ إِلَى آخِرِ السُّورَةِ هَكَذَا» قَالَ أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ السَّمَّاكِ «وَقَرَأَهَا عَلَيْنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْهَيْثَمِ إِلَى آخِرِ السُّورَةِ هَكَذَا»
