3219. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās رضي الله عنهم: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "Jibrīl (Gabriel) read the Qur'ān to me in one way (i.e., dialect), and I continued asking him to read it in different ways till he read it in seven different ways."(1)

Arabic text

3219 - حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «أَقْرَأَنِي جِبْرِيلُ عَلَى حَرْفٍ، فَلَمْ أَزَلْ أَسْتَزِيدُهُ حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَى سَبْعَةِ أَحْرُفٍ»
