Al-Harith bin Hisham asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): 'How does the Revelation come to you?' He said: 'Like the ringing of a bell, and when it departs I remember what he (the Angel) said, and this is the hardest on me. And sometimes he (the Angel) comes to me in the form of a man and gives it to me.'

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Qutaibah dari Malik dari Nafi' dari Ibnu Umar Rasulullah Shallallallahu'alaihi wasallam bersabda: Perumpamaan pembawa (orang yang membaca) Al Qur'an laksana unta yang diikat; bila ia menjaganya maka ia dapat menahan (hapalan) nya dan bila ia melepaskannya maka (hapalannya) akan hilang.

Al-Harith bin Hisham asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): 'How does the Revelation come to you?' He said: 'Like the ringing of a bell, and this is the hardest on me. When it departs I remember what he said. And sometimes the Angel appears to me in the form of a man and speaks to me, and I remember what he said. Aishah said: I saw him when the Revelation came to him on a very cold day, and his forhead was dripping with sweat.

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Imran bin Musa dia berkata; Telah menceritakan kepada kami Yazid bin Zura'i dia berkata; Telah menceritakan kepada kami Syu'bah dari Manshur dari Abu Wa'il dari Abdullah dari Nabi Shallallahu'alaihi wasallam beliau bersabda: Alangkah buruknya seorang dari mereka yang berkata 'Aku lupa ayat ini dan itu '. Bahkan melupakannya. Jagalah Al Qur'an dan sesungguhnya Al Qur'an lebih cepat lepasnya (lupa) dari dada manusia dibandingkan dengan unta yang lepas dari ikatannya.

Concerning the saying of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime: Move not your tongue concerning to make haste therewith. It is for Us to collect it and to give you the ability to recite it- The Prophet (ﷺ) used to suffer a great deal of hardship when the Revelation came to him, and he used to move his lips. Allah said: Move not your tongue concerning to make haste therewith. It is for Us to collect it and to give you the ability to recite it. He said: (This means) He will gather it in your heart, then you will recite it, And when We have recited it to you, then follow the recitation. He said: So listen to it and remain silent. So when Jibril came to him, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) listened, and when he left, he would recite it as he had taught him.

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami 'Imran bin Yazid dia berkata; Telah menceritakan kepada kami Marwan bin Mu'awiyah Al Fazari dia berkata; Telah menceritakan kepada kami Utsman bin Hakim dia berkata; Telah mengabarkan kepadaku Sa'id bin Yasar bahwa Ibnu Abbas Telah mengabarkan kepadanya Rasulullah Shallallallahu'alaihi wasallam membaca (ayat) pada dua rakaat shalat Subuh. Pada rakaat pertama beliau membaca ayat dalam surat Al Baqarah Katakanlah (Hai orang-orang mukmin) 'Kami beriman kepada Allah dan apa yang diturunkan kepada kami. (Qs. Al Baqarah (2): 136) sampai akhir ayat tersebut sedangkan pada rakaat kedua beliau membaca Kami telah beriman dan saksikanlah (wahai rasul) bahwa sesungguhnya kami adalah orang-orang yang patut (kepada seruanmu) (Qs. Al Maa'idah (5): 111).

Umar bin Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, said: I heard Hisham bin Hakim bin Hizam reciting: Surat Al-Furqan, in a way that the Prophet of Allah (ﷺ) had not taught me. I said: 'Who taught you this Surah?' He said: 'The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).' I said: 'You are lying; the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) did not teach you like that. 'I took him by the hand and brought him to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, you taught me Surat Al-Furqan, but I heard this man reciting it in a way that you did not teach me.' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Recite, O Hisham.' So he recited it as he had recited it (before). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'It was revealed like this.' Then he said: 'Recite, O Umar.' So I recited it, and he said: 'It was revealed like this.' Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'The Quran was revealed to be recited in seven different modes.'

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Abdurrahman bin Ibrahim Duhaim dia berkata; Telah menceritakan kepada kami Marwan dia berkata; Telah menceritakan kepada kami Yazid bin Kaisan dari Abu Hazim dari Abu Hurairah bahwa Rasulullah Shallallallahu'alaihi wasallam saat membaca qul yaa ayyuhal kaafiruun (Katakanlah wahai Muhammad wahai orang-orang kafir) -maksudnya surat alkafirun--dan qul huwallaahu ahad (Katakanlah wahai Muhammad bahwa Allah itu satu) -maksudnya surat ikhlas--pada dua rakaat (sunah) fajar.

I heard Umar bin Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, say: 'I heard Hisham bin Hakim bin Hizam reciting Surat Al-Furqan, in a way that I had not been taught, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had taught me. I was about to interrupt him (in his prayer), but I left him alone until he had finished. Then I grabbed him by his garment and brought him to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I heard this man reciting Surat Al-Furqan in a way that you did not teach me.' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: 'Recite.' So he recited it in the way that I had heard him recite. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'It was revealed like this.' Then he said to me: 'Recite.' So I recited it and he said: 'It was revealed like this. This Quran has been revealed in seven different modes, so recite as much of the Quran as may be easy for you.'

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Ishaq bin Ibrahim dia berkata; Telah memberitakan kepada kami Jarir dari Yahya bin Sa'id dari Muhammad bin Abdurrahman dari 'Amrah dari Aisyah dia berkata; Aku pernah melihat Rasulullah Shallallallahu'alaihi wasallam shalat (sunah) Fajar dua rakaat dengan ringan (cepat) sehingga aku bertanya-tanya 'Apakah beliau Shallallallahu'alaihi wasallam (hanya) membaca Fatihah pada dua rakaat tersebut?.

They heard Umar bin Al-Khattab say: I heard Hisham bin Hakim bin Hizam reciting Surat Al-Furqan during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), so I listened to his recitation and he was reciting it in a way that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had not taught me. I was about to jump on him while he was praying, but I waited patiently until he said the Salam (at the end of the prayer). When he had said the Salam I grabbed him by his garment and said: 'Who taught you this Surah that I heard you reciting?' He said: 'The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) taught me it. I said: 'You are lying, by Allah! The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) is the one who taught me this Surah that I heard you reciting.' I took him to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I heard this man reciting Surat Al-Furqan in a way that you did not teach me, but you taught me Surat Al-Furqan.' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:' Let him go, O Umar. Recite, O Hisham.' So I recited it to him in the way that I had heard him recite. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'It was revealed like this.' Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Recite, O Umar.' So I recited it in the way that he had taught me. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'It was revealed like this.' Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'This Quran has been revealed to be recited in seven different modes, so recite as much of the Quran as may be easy for you.'

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Muhammad bin Basyar dia berkata; Telah menceritakan kepada kami Abdurrahman dia berkata; Telah memberitakan kepada kami Sufyan dari Abdul Malik bin Umair dari Syabib Abu Rauh dari salah seorang sahabat Rasulullah Shallallahu'alaihi wasallam dari Nabi Shallallahu'alaihi wasallam bahwa beliau Shallallallahu'alaihi wasallam pernah shalat Subuh dengan membaca surat Ar Ruum lalu bacaan beliau bercampur dengan lainnya. Setelah selesai shalat beliau bersabda: Bagaimana keadaan orang-orang yang shalat tanpa bersuci dengan baik? Bacaan AI Qur'an kita menjadi kacau karena mereka.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was by a pond belonging to Banu Ghifar when Jibril, peace be upon him, came to him and said: Allah commands you to teach your Ummah the Quran with one way of recitation. He said: I ask my Lord for protection and forgiveness, my Ummah cannot bear that. Then he came to him a second time and said: Allah commands you to teach your Ummah the Quran with two ways of recitation. He said: I ask my Lord for protection and forgiveness, my Ummah cannot bear that. Then he came to him a third time and said: Allah commands you to teach your Ummah the Quran with three ways of recitation. He said: I ask my Lord for protection and forgiveness, my Ummah cannot bear that. Then he came to him a fourth time and said: Allah commands you to teach your Ummah the Quran with seven ways of recitation, and whichever the way they recite it will be correct.

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Muhammad bin Ismail bin Ibrahim dia berkata; Telah menceritakan kepada kami Yazid dia berkata; Telah memberitakan kepada kami Sulaiman At-Taimi dari Sayyar Yaitu Ibnu Salamah dari Abu Barzah bahwa; Rasulullah Shallallallahu'alaihi wasallam pernah membaca enam puluh sampai seratus ayat pada shalat Subuh.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) taught me a surah, and when I was sitting in the masjid I heard a man reciting it in a way that was different from mine. I said to him: 'Who taught you this surah?' He said: 'The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).' I said: 'Stay with me until we go to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).' So we came to him and I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, this man recites a surah that you taught me differently.' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Recite, O Ubayy.' So I recited it, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to me: 'You have done well.' Then he said to the man: 'Recite.' So he recited it and it was different to my recitation. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: 'You have done well.' Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'O Ubayy, the Quran has been revealed with seven different modes of reciation, all of which are good and sound.

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami 'Imran bin Yazid dia berkata; Telah menceritakan kepada kami Ibnu Abu Rizal dari Yahya bin Sa'id dari 'Amrah dari Ummu Hisyam binti Haritsah bin An Nu'man dia berkata; Aku tidaklah menghafal surat Qaaf wal Qur'anil Majiid kecuali dari belakang Rasulullah Shallallallahu'alaihi wasallam yang pernah beliau baca dalam shalat shubuh.

I had no confusion in my mind from that time I embraced Islam, except when I recited a verse and another man recited it differently. I said: 'The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) taught me this.' And the other man said: 'The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) taught me too.' So I went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: 'O Prophet of Allah, did you not teach me such and such a verse?' He said: 'Yes.' The other man said: 'Did you not teach me such and such a verse?' He said: 'Yes. Jibril and Mika'il, peace be upon them, came to me, and Jibril sat on my right and Mika'il on my left. Jibril, peace be upon him, said: Recite the Quran with one way of recitation.' Mika'il said: 'Teach him more, teach him more- until there were seven modes of recitation, each of which is good and sound.'

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Ismail bin Ma'sud dan Muhamad bin Abdul A'la lafadz ini darinya dia berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami Khalid dan Syu'bah dari Ziyad bin Ilaqah dia berkata; Aku mendengar pamanku berkata; Aku shalat Subuh bersama Rasulullah Shallallahu'alaihi wasallam dan beliau Shallallallahu'alaihi wasallam dalam salah satu rakaatnya membaca ayat Wannakhla Saabiqaatin Lahaa Thal'un Nadhiij ('Dan pohon Kurma yang tinggi-tinggi yang mempunyai mayang yang bersusun). (Qs.Qaaf (50): 10). Syu'bah (salah seorang perawi hadits ini) berkata Lalu aku berjumpa dengannya di pasar yang ramai beliau berkata 'yang kubaca tadi surat Qaaf.
