The Messenger of Allah ﷺ one day came out to us while we were reciting the Qur’an. He said: Praise be to Allah. The Book of Allah is one, and among you are the red, and among you are the white and among you are the black. Recite it before there appear people who will recite it and straighten it as an arrow is straightened. They will get their reward for it in this world and will not get it in the Hereafter.  

خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمًا وَنَحْنُ نَقْتَرِئُ فَقَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ وَاحِدٌ وَفِيكُمُ الأَحْمَرُ وَفِيكُمُ الأَبْيَضُ وَفِيكُمُ الأَسْوَدُ اقْرَءُوهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقْرَأَهُ أَقْوَامٌ يُقِيمُونَهُ كَمَا يُقَوَّمُ السَّهْمُ يَتَعَجَّلُ أَجْرَهُ وَلاَ يَتَأَجَّلُهُ

(Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 831)  

عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمًا وَنَحْنُ نَقْتَرِئُ فَقَالَ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ وَاحِدٌ وَفِيكُمُ الْأَحْمَرُ وَفِيكُمُ الْأَسْوَدُ اقْرَؤُوهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقْرَأَهُ أَقْوَامٌ يُقَوِّمُونَهُ كَمَا يُقَوَّمُ أَلْسِنَتُهُمْ يَتَعَجَّلُ أَجْرَه ُ وَلَا يَتَأَجَّلُهُ»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out to us while we were reading the Quran and reciting it to one another. He said, "Praise be to Allah, the Book of Allah is one, but the recitation styles differ among you. The black and the red (styles of recitation) should recite the Quran, recite the Quran, recite the Quran, before a people come who will recite it and establish its letters, similar to how an arrow is shot piercing through its target. They will rush to gain its reward and not delay it."  

خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ نَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ وَيُقْرِئُهُ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضًا فَقَالَ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كِتَابُ اللهِ وَاحِدٌ فِيكُمُ الْأَسْوَدُ وَالْأَحْمَرُ اقْرَأُوا الْقُرْآنَ اقْرَأُوا الْقُرْآنَ اقْرَأُوا الْقُرْآنَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ أَقْوَامٌ يَقْرَأُونَ الْقُرْآنَ يُقِيمُونَ حُرُوفَهُ كَمَا يُقَامُ السَّهْمُ لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ يَتَعَجَّلُونَ أَجْرَهُ وَلَا يَتَأَجَّلُونَهُ»

"الْحمدُ لله كتَابُ اللهِ واحدٌ وفيكم الأحْمرُ وفيكم الأبْيَضُ وفيكم الأسْوَدُ اقْرأُوه قَبْلَ أنْ يَقْرَأَهُ أقْوامٌ يُقِيمُونَ حُروفَه كَمَا يَقومُ السَّهْمُ لا يجاوزُ تَراقِيَهم، يَتعجَّلُونَ أجْرَهُ ولا يَتَأجلونَهُ".
