Hum se Ali bin Abdullah Madini ne byaan kiya, kaha hum se Yahya bin Saeed Qattan ne byaan kiya, kaha hum se Shubah bin Hajjaj ne byaan kiya, kaha mujh se Habib bin Abdur Rahman ne byaan kiya, un se Hafs bin Aasim ne aur un se Abu Saeed bin al-Mualla razi Allahu anhu ne ke main namaz mein mashghool tha to Rasool Allah salla Allahu alaihi wasallam ne mujhe bulaya is liye main koi jawab nahi de saka, phir main ne (Aap ki khidmat mein hazir ho kar) arz kiya: ya Rasool Allah! Main namaz parh raha tha. Is par Aap salla Allahu alaihi wasallam ne farmaya kya Allah Ta'ala ne tumhein hukm nahi farmaya hai «istajeeboo lillahi wa lir-rasooli izha da-aakum» ke ”Allah ke Rasool jab tumhein pukarein to in ki pukar par furan Allah ke Rasool ke liye labbaik kaha karo.“ Phir Aap salla Allahu alaihi wasallam ne farmaya masjid se nikalne se pehle Quran ki sab se bari surat main tumhein kyun na sikha doon. Phir Aap ne mera hath pakar liya aur jab hum masjid se bahar nikalne lage to main ne arz kiya: ya Rasool Allah! Aap ne abhi farmaya tha ke masjid ke bahar nikalne se pehle Aap mujhe Quran ki sab se bari surat batayein ge. Aap salla Allahu alaihi wasallam ne farmaya ke haan woh surat «alhamdu lillahi rabbil aalameena» hai yahi woh saat aayatein hain jo (har namaz mein) baar baar parhi jati hain aur yahi woh Quran e Azeem hai jo mujhe diya gaya hai.
