5. Narrated Sa'īd bin Jubair: Ibn 'Abbās in the explanation of the Statement of Allāh 'Move not your tongue concerning (the Qur'ān, O Muḥammad ﷺ) to make haste therewith' (V.75:16) said, "Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used to bear the revelation with great stress and hardness, and used to move his lips (quickly with the Revelation)." Ibn 'Abbās moved his lips saying, "I am moving my lips (in front of you) as Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used to move his." Sa'īd moved his lips saying: "I am moving my lips, as I have seen Ibn 'Abbās moving his." [Ibn 'Abbās رضي الله عنهم added], "So Allāh revealed 'Move not your tongue concerning (the Qur'ān, O Muḥammad ﷺ) to make haste therewith. It is for Us to collect it and to give you (O Muḥammad ﷺ) the ability to recite it (the Qur'ān) (V.75:16,17), [which means that Allāh will make him (the Prophet ﷺ) remember the portion of the Qur'ān which was revealed at that time by heart and recite it]. The Statement of Allāh: 'And when We have recited it to you [O Muḥammad ﷺ through Jibrīl (Gabriel)] then follow you its (the Qur'ān's) recital' (V.75:18) (means 'listen to it and be silent'). 'Then it is for Us (Allāh) to make it clear to you' (V.75:19) means then it is (for Allāh) to make you recite it (and its meaning will be clear by itself through your tongue). Afterwards, Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used to listen to Jibrīl whenever he came and after his departure he used to recite it as Jibrīl had recited it."

5 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ أَبِي عَائِشَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى: {لاَ تُحَرِّكْ بِهِ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهِ} [القيامة: 16] قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُعَالِجُ مِنَ التَّنْزِيلِ شِدَّةً، وَكَانَ مِمَّا يُحَرِّكُ شَفَتَيْهِ - فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: فَأَنَا أُحَرِّكُهُمَا لَكُمْ كَمَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُحَرِّكُهُمَا، وَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ: أَنَا أُحَرِّكُهُمَا كَمَا رَأَيْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ يُحَرِّكُهُمَا، فَحَرَّكَ شَفَتَيْهِ - فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى: {لاَ تُحَرِّكْ بِهِ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهِ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُ وَقُرْآنَهُ} [القيامة: 17] قَالَ: جَمْعُهُ لَكَ فِي صَدْرِكَ وَتَقْرَأَهُ: {فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَاهُ فَاتَّبِعْ قُرْآنَهُ} [القيامة: 18] قَالَ: فَاسْتَمِعْ لَهُ وَأَنْصِتْ: {ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا بَيَانَهُ} [القيامة: 19] ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا أَنْ تَقْرَأَهُ، فَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ إِذَا أَتَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ اسْتَمَعَ فَإِذَا انْطَلَقَ جِبْرِيلُ قَرَأَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَمَا قَرَأَهُ
