Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: And Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah and Abu Kuraib both narrated to us from Hafs. Abu Bakr said: Hafs ibn Ghiyath narrated to us from al-A'mash from Ibrahim from Ubaydah from Abdullah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: اقرأ علي القرآن قال: فقلت: يا رسول الله أقرأ عليك وعليك أنزل؟ قال: إني أشتهي أن أسمعه من غيري، فقرأت النساء حتى إذا بلغت فكيف إذا جئنا من كل أمة بشهيد وجئنا بك على هؤلاء شهيدا رفعت رأسي أو غمزني رجل إلى جنبي فرفعت رأسي فرأيت دموعه تسيل Recite the Qur'an to me. I said: O Messenger of Allah, shall I recite it to you when it was revealed to you? He said: I desire to hear it from someone other than myself. So I recited Surat al-Nisa' until I reached: So how will it be when We bring from every nation a witness, and bring you as a witness over these? I raised my head, or a man beside me nudged me, so I raised my head and saw his tears flowing..
