[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Learn from four: Abdullah, Sālim, the servant of Abu Hudhaifah." Shu'bah said, "He started with these two, and Ubayy ibn Ka'b and Mu'adh ibn Jabal." He said, "I do not know which of the two he started with."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «اسْتَقْرِئُوا مِنْ أَرْبَعَةٍ عَبْدِ اللهِ وَسَالِمٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ» قَالَ شُعْبَةُ «بَدَأَ بِهَذَيْنِ وَأُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ وَمُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ» قَالَ «لَا أَدْرِي بِأَيِّهِمَا بَدَأَ»  

[Machine] I have read to the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , seventy-odd chapters, and the companions of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , knew that I knew them from the Book of Allah. And if I knew that anyone knew them more than me, I would have traveled to him. A companion said, 'So, I sat in the gatherings of the companions of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , and I did not hear anyone criticizing or refuting what I recited.'  

لَقَدْ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِضْعًا وَسَبْعِينَ سُورَةً وَقَدْ عَلِمَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنِّي أَعْلَمُهُمْ بِكِتَابِ اللهِ وَلَوْ أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ أَحَدًا أَعْلَمَ بِهِ مِنِّي لَرَحَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ شَقِيقٌ «فَجَلَسْتُ فِي حِلَقِ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَا سَمِعْتُ أَحَدًا يَعِيبُ ذَلِكَ وَلَا يَرُدَّهُ»  

[Machine] "To me, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'I have been commanded to recite the Quran to you.' I asked: 'Was it mentioned specifically for me there?' He said: 'Yes.' Hence, Ubayy wept and said: 'I do not know if it is due to longing or fear.'"  

لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقْرِئَكَ الْقُرْآنَ» قَالَ قُلْتُ أَوَ ذُكِرْتُ هُنَاكَ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ» فَبَكَى أُبَيٌّ قَالَ «فَلَا أَدْرِي أَبِشَوْقٍ أَوْ بِخَوْفٍ»  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said to Ubay, 'Indeed, my Lord has commanded me to recite the Quran to you.' Ubay asked, 'Did He mention me by name to you?' The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , replied, 'Yes.' So, Ubay wept."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لِأُبَيٍّ «إِنَّ رَبِّي أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَعْرِضَ عَلَيْكَ الْقُرْآنَ» قَالَ أَوَ سَمَّانِي لَكَ؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «نَعَمْ» فَبَكَى أُبَيٌّ
