English narration

Narrated by أبو لبابة الأنصاري

Narrated AbuLubabah: Ubaydullah ibn Yazid said: AbuLubabah passed by us and we followed him till he entered his house, and we also entered it. There was a man in a rusty house and in shabby condition. I heard him say: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: He is not one of us who does not chant the Quran. I (the narrator AbdulJabbar) said to Ibn Abu Mulaykah: Abu Muhammad, what do you think if a person does not have pleasant voice? He said: He should recite with pleasant voice as much as possible.

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْجَبَّارِ بْنُ الْوَرْدِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ ، يَقُولُ : قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي يَزِيدَ : مَرَّ بِنَا أَبُو لُبَابَةَ فَاتَّبَعْنَاهُ حَتَّى دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ ، فَدَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ رَثُّ الْبَيْتِ رَثُّ الْهَيْئَةِ ، فَسَمِعْتُهُ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : "

لَيْسَ مِنَّا مَنْ لَمْ يَتَغَنَّ بِالْقُرْآنِ

" ، قَالَ : فَقُلْتُ لِابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ : يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ ، أَرَأَيْتَ إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ حَسَنَ الصَّوْتِ ؟ قَالَ : يُحَسِّنُهُ مَا اسْتَطَاعَ .
