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
