حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَمُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالاَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبَانُ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ لَهُ " اقْرَإِ الْقُرْآنَ فِي شَهْرٍ " . قَالَ إِنِّي أَجِدُ قُوَّةً . قَالَ " اقْرَأْ فِي عِشْرِينَ " . قَالَ إِنِّي أَجِدُ قُوَّةً . قَالَ " اقْرَأْ فِي خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ " . قَالَ إِنِّي أَجِدُ قُوَّةً . قَالَ " اقْرَأْ فِي عَشْرٍ " . قَالَ إِنِّي أَجِدُ قُوَّةً . قَالَ " اقْرَأْ فِي سَبْعٍ وَلاَ تَزِيدَنَّ عَلَى ذَلِكَ " . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَحَدِيثُ مُسْلِمٍ أَتَمُّ .
