1458. Abū Sa'eed bin Al-Mu'allā said that the Prophet ﷺ passed by him while he was praying. He summoned him, but he first prayed then came. The Prophet ﷺ said: "What prevented you from responding to me?" He replied: "I was praying." So he said: "Has not Allāh said: O you who believe! Respond to the call of Allāh and the Messenger when he calls you to that which gives you life?!"[1] I will teach you the greatest Sūrah from — or — in the Qur'ān before I exit from the Masjid." (When he was about to leave) Abū Sa'eed said: "O Messenger of Allāh! You said..." So he said: "All praise is due to Allāh, the Lord of Al-Ālamīn. This is the 'Seven Oft-Repeated Verses' that I have been given (along with) the Magnificent Qur'an." (Ṣāḥih)

1458 - حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ خُبَيْبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ حَفْصَ بْنَ عَاصِمٍ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُعَلَّى، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَرَّ بِهِ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي، فَدَعَاهُ، قَالَ: فَصَلَّيْتُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ: «مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تُجِيبَنِي؟»، قَالَ: كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي، قَالَ: " أَلَمْ يَقُلِ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَجِيبُوا لِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ إِذَا دَعَاكُمْ لِمَا يُحْيِيكُمْ} [الأنفال: 24]، لَأُعَلِّمَنَّكَ أَعْظَمَ سُورَةٍ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ - أَوْ فِي الْقُرْآنِ، شَكَّ خَالِدٌ - قَبْلَ أَنْ أَخْرُجَ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ "، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَوْلُكَ: قَالَ: «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ هِيَ السَّبْعُ الْمَثَانِي الَّتِي أُوتِيتُ، وَالْقُرْآنُ الْعَظِيمُ»
