English narration
Narrated by عبد الله بن عمرو السهمي
Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As: Yazid ibn Abdullah said that Abdullah ibn Amr asked the Prophet ﷺ: In how many days should I complete the recitation of the whole Quran, Messenger of Allah? He replied: In one month. He said: I am more energetic to complete it in a period less than this. He kept on repeating these words and lessening the period until he said: Complete its recitation in seven days. He again said: I am more energetic to complete it in a period less than this. The Prophet ﷺ said: He who finishes the recitation of the Quran in less than three days does not understand it.

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا هَمَّامٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا قَتَادَةُ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، فِي كَمْ أَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ ؟ قَالَ : " فِي شَهْرٍ " قَالَ : إِنِّي أَقْوَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، يُرَدِّدُ الْكَلَامَ أَبُو مُوسَى وَتَنَاقَصَهُ حَتَّى قَالَ : " اقْرَأْهُ فِي سَبْعٍ " قَالَ : إِنِّي أَقْوَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، قَالَ : "
لَا يَفْقَهُ مَنْ قَرَأَهُ فِي أَقَلَّ مِنْ ثَلَاثٍ
