حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَاصِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ

قَالَ سُئِلَ أَنَسٌ كَيْفَ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَةُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. فَقَالَ كَانَتْ مَدًّا. ثُمَّ قَرَأَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ، يَمُدُّ بِبِسْمِ اللَّهِ، وَيَمُدُّ بِالرَّحْمَنِ، وَيَمُدُّ بِالرَّحِيمِ

Anas was asked, “How was the recitation (of the Qur’an) of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)?” He replied, “It was characterized by the prolongation of certain sounds.” He then recited: In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful prolonging the pronunciation of ‘In the Name of Allah, ‘the most Beneficent,’ and ‘the Most Merciful.’’

ক্বাতাদাহ (রহ.) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আনাস (রাঃ)-কে নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-এর ‘কিরাআত’ সম্পর্কে জিজ্ঞেস করা হলো যে, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-এর ‘কিরাআত’ কেমন ছিল?

উত্তরে তিনি বললেন, কোন কোন ক্ষেত্রে নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম দীর্ঘ করতেন। এরপর তিনি ‘বিস্মিল্লা-হির রহমা-নির রহীম’ তিলাওয়াত করে শোনালেন এবং তিনি বললেন, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম ‘বিস্মিল্লাহ্’’ ‘আর রহমান’, ‘আর রহীম’ পড়ার সময় দীর্ঘায়িত করতেন। [৫০৪৫]

ہم سے عمرو بن عاصم نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے ہمام نے بیان کیا، ان سے قتادہ نے کہ انس رضی اللہ عنہ سے پوچھا گیا کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی قرآت کیسی تھی؟ انہوں نے بیان کیا کہ مد کے ساتھ۔

پھر آپ نے «بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم» پڑھا اور کہا کہ «بسم الله» ( میں اللہ کی لام ) کو مد کے ساتھ پڑھتے «الرحمن» ( میں میم ) کو مد کے ساتھ پڑھتے اور «الرحيم‏.» ( میں حاء کو ) مد کے ساتھ پڑھتے۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Amru bin 'Ashim] Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Hammam] dari [Qatadah] ia berkata; [Anas] pernah ditanya, "Bagaimankah bacaan Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam?" Ia pun menjawab, "Bacaan beliau adalah panjang." Lalu ia pun membaca: "BISMILLAAHIRRAHMAANIRRAHIIM." Anas menjelaskan, "Beliau memanjangkan bacaan, 'BISMILLAH' dan juga memanjangkan bacaan, 'ARRAHMAAN' serta bacaan, 'ARRAHIIM

Katade'den şöyle dediği rivayet edilmiştir: "Enes'e 'Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem nasıl Kur'an okurdu?' diye sordular. O da 'uzatılması gereken yerleri uzatarak okurdu' şeklinde cevap verdikten sonra besmeleyi okudu. بسم الله Bismillahi, الرحمن الرحيم iler-Rahman i ve iler-Rahim kelimelerini uzattı." Fethu'l-Bari Açıklaması: Kur'an okurken yapılan uzatma (med) iki türlüdür: a) Asli Med: Kendisinden sonra elif, vav ve ya harflerinden biri gelen harf, bir elif miktarı çekilerek okunur.

b) Gayr-i Asli Med: Kendisinden sonra elif, vav ve ya harflerinden birinin geldiği, bunlardan sonra da hemzenin geldiği durumlarda söz konusu olan medde denir. Bu meddin, muttasıl ve munfasıl olmak üzere iki kısmı vardır. Eğer bu bahsettiğimiz durum, aynı kelime içinde olursa buna muttasıl, iki kelime arasında meydana gelirse buna da munfasıl denir.

Asli med, elif, vav ve ya harfleri bulunduğu zaman aşırıya kaçmadan bir elif miktarı uzatılarak okunur. Gayr-i asli med ise aşırıya kaçmamak şartı ile bundan daha fazla uzatılır. Normalolan, bu med sayesinde asli meddin iki katı kadar uzatmaktır. Bundan biraz daha fazla uzatılabilir. Ancak bundan daha az uzatılması iyi değildir. Bu konu başlığı ile asli med kastediimiştir

Sahih al-Bukhari 5046, Book 66, Virtues of the Qur'an, Hadith 70. 1 min read

What it means

Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked how the Prophet (ﷺ) used to recite the Qur’an. He said: He would prolong his voice in recitation with Madd (elongation); he would extend the lām before the hā’ in the word Allāh, extend the mīm before the nūn in Ar-Rahmān, and extend the hā’ in Ar-Rahīm.

What it teaches

  • Madd (elongation) means fully extending the sounds of the letters of madd—alif, wāw, and yā’— when they are in a state of sukūn (silent) and preceded by a vowel that matches them.
  • Clarifying the Prophet's way in reciting the Qur’an.
  • The practical demonstration of how the Prophet (ﷺ) used to recite the Qur’an.
  • As-Sindi said: His statement (he would prolong his voice in recitation with Madd) means that he would lengthen the letters that are suitable for elongation, using this to aid in contemplation, reflection, and reminding those who take heed.
  • Importance of knowing Tajwīd (reciting the Qur’an in accordance with established rules of pronunciation and intonation) and the sciences of the Qur’an.
  • Understanding the texts is referred to the scholars, as Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked and he explained to the questioner.
