حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَلْقَمَةُ بْنُ مَرْثَدٍ، سَمِعْتُ سَعْدَ بْنَ عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيِّ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ رضى الله عنه عَنِ

النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «خَيْرُكُمْ مَنْ تَعَلَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ وَعَلَّمَهُ». قَالَ وَأَقْرَأَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ فِي إِمْرَةِ عُثْمَانَ حَتَّى كَانَ الْحَجَّاجُ، قَالَ وَذَاكَ الَّذِي أَقْعَدَنِي مَقْعَدِي هَذَا

ہم سے حجاج بن منہال نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے شعبہ بن حجاج نے بیان کیا، کہا کہ مجھے علقمہ بن مرثد نے خبر دی، انہوں نے سعد بن عبیدہ سے سنا، انہوں نے ابوعبدالرحمٰن سلمی سے اور انہوں نے عثمان بن عفان رضی اللہ عنہ سے، انہوں نے بیان کیا کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ تم میں سب سے بہتر وہ ہے جو قرآن مجید پڑھے اور پڑھائے۔

سعد بن عبیدہ نے بیان کیا کہ ابوعبدالرحمٰن سلمی نے لوگوں کو عثمان رضی اللہ عنہ کے زمانہ خلافت سے حجاج بن یوسف کے عراق کے گورنر ہونے تک قرآن مجید کی تعلیم دی۔

وہ کہا کرتے تھے کہ یہی حدیث ہے جس نے مجھے اس جگہ ( قرآن مجید پڑھانے کے لیے ) بٹھا رکھا ہے۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Hajjaj bin Minhal] Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Syu'bah] ia berkata, Telah mengabarkan kepadaku ['Alqamah bin Martsad] Aku mendengar [Sa'd bin Ubaidah] dari [Abu Abdurrahman As Sulami] dari [Utsman] radliallahu 'anhu, dari Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam, beliau bersabda: "Orang yang paling baik di antara kalian adalah seorang yang belajar Al Qur`an dan mengajarkannya."

Osman radiyallahu anh'dan Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem'in şöyle buyurduğu rivayet edilmiştir: "Sizin en hayırlınız Kur'an'ı öğrenen ve öğretendir." Sa 'd İbn Ubeyde şöyle dedi: Hz.

Sahih al-Bukhari 5027, Book 66, Virtues of the Qur'an, Hadith 49. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs that the best and higher-standing among Muslims in the sight of Allah are those who learn the Qur’an - in terms of recitation, memorization, tartīl (measured recitation), understanding, and interpretation - and teach others the knowledge of the Qur’an that they possess, along with acting upon it.

What it teaches

  • The Hadīth highlights the excellence of the Qur’an and that it is the best speech, for it is the word of Allah.
  • The best learners are those who teach others and do not keep the knowledge to themselves only.
  • Learning the Qur’an and teaching it comprises its recitation, meanings, and rulings.
