English translation

1468. Al-Barā' bin 'Āzib reported that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Beautify the Qur'an with your voices."[3] (Sahih) [1] Meaning: How can you pray as he prayed? [2] Yurajji'u from Raj'a to return, or to repeat, etc. In An-Nihāyah, Ibn Kathir explained its meaning in this narration: "It has been mentioned by 'Abdullāh bin Mughaffal that he did Tarji' by elongating his voice during his recitation like: Ā', Ā', Ā' and this only resulted from him — and Allāh knows best — on the Day of the Conquest, because he was riding on his mount, so the she-camel was making him move sideways and up and down, so Tarji' occurred in his voice." [3] It is explained to mean "Beautify your voices with the Qur'an." And that in it is proof that what is heard from the reciter of the Qur'an, is the Qur'an.

1468 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْسَجَةَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «زَيِّنُوا الْقُرْآنَ بِأَصْوَاتِكُمْ»
