48. Virtues of the Companions
٤٨۔ كِتَابُ الْمَنَاقِبِ
I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "Learn the recitation of Qur'an from four persons: Ibn Masʿud, Salim, the freed slave of Abu Hudhaifa, Ubai and Muʿadh bin Jabal." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3806)
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ اسْتَقْرِئُوا الْقُرْآنَ مِنْ أَرْبَعَةٍ مِنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَسَالِمٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ وَمُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ وَأُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ
ʿAbdullah bin Masud was mentioned before ʿAbdullah bin ʿAmr who said, "That is a man I still love, as I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying 'Learn the recitation of Qur'an from four from ʿAbdullah bin Masʿud -- he started with him--Salim, the freed slave of Abu Hudaifa, Muʿadh bin Jabal and Ubai bin Kaʿb." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3808)
لَا أَزَالُ أُحِبُّ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ بَعْدَمَا بَدَأَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ خُذُوا الْقُرْآنَ مِنْ أَرْبَعَةٍ ابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ وَأُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ وَمُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ وَسَالِمٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ
