[Machine] He passed by a storyteller and when he finished, he asked him. He said: "Verily, to Allah we belong and to Him is our return." I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: "Recite the Quran and ask Allah through it before there comes a people who recite the Quran and ask the people through it."
