[Machine] When this verse was revealed: "Do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet," Thabit sat on the road crying. Aasim ibn Adi passed by him and asked, "What makes you cry, O Thabit?" He replied, "I have a loud voice and I fear that this verse was revealed about me." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said to him, "O my son, would you not be pleased to live as a praised one, be killed as a martyr, and enter Paradise?" Thabit said, "I am pleased with the glad tidings of Allah and His Messenger. I will never raise my voice above the voice of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." Then the verse was revealed: "Indeed, those who lower their voices."
