[Machine] A stolen item, Shir, was brought to us to inform us of it, so either you inform and I believe you, or I inform and you believe me. Masrooq said, "You inform, I believe you." Then Shir said, "Abdullah ibn Mas'ood reported that the greatest verse in the Book of Allah is '{Allah, there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of existence}' until the end of the verse." Masrooq said, "You speak the truth, Abdullah informed us that the most comprehensive verse in the Book of Allah is '{Indeed, Allah orders justice and good conduct}' until the end of the verse." Masrooq said, "You speak the truth," and he narrated to us that the most joyful verse in the Book of Allah is '{O My servants who have transgressed against themselves, do not despair of the mercy of Allah}' until the end of the verse." Masrooq said, "You speak the truth," and he narrated to us that the most empowering verse in the Book of Allah is '{And whoever fears Allah, He will make for him a way out and will provide for him from where he does not expect}' until the end of the verse." Masrooq said, "You speak the truth."
