Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, "Recite (of the Qur'an) for me," I said, "Shall I recite it to you although it had been revealed to you?" He said, "I like to hear (the Qur'an) from others." So I recited Surat-an- Nisa' till I reached: "How (will it be) then when We bring from each nation a witness, and We bring you (O Muhammad) as a witness against these people?" (4.41) Then he said, "Stop!" And behold, his eyes were overflowing with tears."  

لِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اقْرَأْ عَلَىَّ قُلْتُ آقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَيْكَ أُنْزِلَ قَالَ فَإِنِّي أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَسْمَعَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِي فَقَرَأْتُ عَلَيْهِ سُورَةَ النِّسَاءِ حَتَّى بَلَغْتُ {فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلاَءِ شَهِيدًا} قَالَ أَمْسِكْ فَإِذَا عَيْنَاهُ تَذْرِفَانِ  

The Prophet ﷺ said to me, "Recite (the Qur'an) to me." I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ Shall I recite (the Qur'an) to you while it has been revealed to you?" He said, "Yes." So I recited Surat-An-Nisa' (The Women), but when I recited the Verse: 'How (will it be) then when We bring from each nation a witness and We bring you (O Muhammad) as a witness against these people.'

لِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اقْرَأْ عَلَىَّ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ آقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَيْكَ أُنْزِلَ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَرَأْتُ سُورَةَ النِّسَاءِ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ إِلَى هَذِهِ الآيَةِ {فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلاَءِ شَهِيدًا} قَالَ حَسْبُكَ الآنَ فَالْتَفَتُّ إِلَيْهِ فَإِذَا عَيْنَاهُ تَذْرِفَانِ  

"'Abdullah said: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded me to recite for him while he was on the Minbar. So I recited from Surat An-Nisa for him, until I reached: How then (will it be) when We bring from each nation a witness, and We bring you (Muhammad) as a witness against these people? (4:41) The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was beckoning me (to stop) with his hand, and I looked at him and his eyes were flowing with tears."  

عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَقَرَأْتُ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ سُورَةِ النِّسَاءِ حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغْتُ ( فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلاَءِ شَهِيدًا ) غَمَزَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَعَيْنَاهُ تَدْمَعَانِ  

[Machine] "I recited to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from Surah An-Nisa, and when I reached this verse: 'So how [will it be] when We bring from every nation a witness and we bring you, [O Muhammad] against these [people] as a witness' [Quran 4:41], his eyes welled up with tears."  

قَرَأْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ سُورَةِ النِّسَاءِ فَلَمَّا بَلَغْتُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ شَهِيدًا} [النساء 41] قَالَ فَفَاضَتْ عَيْنَاهُ ﷺ  

The Prophet ﷺ said to me, "Recite Qur'an to me." I said to him. "Shall I recite (it) to you while it has been revealed to you?" He said, "I like to hear it from another person." (Using translation from Bukhārī 5056)  

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اقْرَأْ عَلَيَّ قَالَ قُلْتُ أَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَيْكَ أُنْزِلَ؟ قَالَ إِنَّنِي أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَسْمَعَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِي فَقَرَأْتُ حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغْتُ {فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَابِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ شَهِيدًا} [النساء 41] قَالَ رَأَيْتُ عَيْنَيْهِ تَذْرِفَانِ دُمُوعًا  

[Machine] "To me, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Recite the Quran to me.' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, how can I recite it to you when it was revealed upon you?' He said, 'I desire to hear it from someone other than myself.' So I began reciting Surah An-Nisa to him, and when I reached the verse 'So how [will it be] when We bring from every nation a witness and we bring you, [O Muhammad] against these [people] as a witness?' [Quran 4:41] He looked at me and his eyes were filled with tears."  

لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اقْرَأْ عَلَيَّ الْقُرْآنَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَيْفَ أَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ وَإِنَّمَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْكَ؟ قَالَ إِنِّي أَشْتَهِي أَنْ أَسْمَعَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِي قَالَ فَافْتَتَحْتُ سُورَةَ النِّسَاءِ فَقَرَأْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا بَلَغْتُ {فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ شَهِيدًا} [النساء 41] قَالَ نَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَعَيْنَاهُ تَذْرِفَانِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, "Read Surah An-Nisa' to me." So I read until I reached the verse, "So how [will it be] when We bring from every nation a witness and we bring you, [O Muhammad], against these as a witness?" He either winked at me or turned his face, and when his eyes filled with tears. ﷺ  

لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اقْرَأْ عَلَيَّ سُورَةَ النِّسَاءِ» فَقَرَأْتُ حَتَّى بَلَغْتُ {فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ شَهِيدًا} قَالَ إِمَّا غَمَزَنِي وَإِمَّا الْتَفَتُّ فَإِذَا عَيْنَاهُ تَسِيلَانِ ﷺ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah said to him, "Read." So he began Surah An-Nisa' until he reached the verse, "So how [will it be] when We bring from every nation a witness and we bring you, [O Muhammad], against these as a witness?" His eyes filled with tears and he said, "Enough for us."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَهُ «اقْرَأْ» فَافْتَتَحَ سُورَةَ النِّسَاءِ حَتَّى إِذَا انْتَهَى {فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ شَهِيدًا} الْآيَةُ دَمَعَتْ عَيْنَاهُ وَقَالَ «حَسْبُنَا»

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ asked me to read Surah An-Nisa while he was on the pulpit. I continued reading until I reached the verse "So how [will it be] when We bring from every nation a witness and we bring you, [O Muhammad], against these [people] as a witness?" The eyes of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ filled with tears, and he said, "Whoever wants to recite the Quran as it was revealed, should recite it according to the recitation of Ibn 'Ummi 'Abd."  

اسْتَقْرَأَنِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ سُورَةَ النِّسَاءِ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَقَرَأْتُهُ حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغْتُ {فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ شَهِيدًا} اغْرَوْرَقَتْ عَيْنَا رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ «مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ كَمَا أُنْزِلَ فَلْيَقْرَأْهُ عَلَى قِرَاءَةِ ابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ»  

[Machine] Ibn Masud, I recited Surah An-Nisa to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and when I came to this verse, "So how [will it be] when We bring from every nation a witness and we bring you, [O Muhammad] against these [people] as a witness?" His eyes overflowed with tears.  

ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ سُورَةَ النِّسَاءِ فَلَمَّا أَتَيْتُ عَلَى هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ {فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ شَهِيدًا} فَاضَتْ عَيْنَاهُ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me: recite Surat al-Nisa’. I asked: Shall I recite to you what was sent down to you? He replied: I like to here it from someone else. So I recited (it) until I reached this verse “How then shall it be when We bring from every people a witness?”. Then I raised my head and saw tears falling from his eyes. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3668)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «اقْرَأْ عَلَيَّ سُورَةَ النِّسَاءِ» قُلْتُ أَوَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ أُنْزِلَ؟ قَالَ «بَلَى وَلَكِنْ أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَسْمَعَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِي» فَقَرَأْتُ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى بَلَغْتُ {فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ كُلِّ أَمَةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ شَهِيدًا} [النساء 41] فَغَمَزَنِي عَامِرٌ فَرَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي فَإِذَا عَيْنَاهُ تَهْمِلَانِ
