5000. Narrated Shaqīq bin Salama: Once, 'Abdullāh bin Mas'ūd delivered a Khuṭba (religious talk) before us and said, "By Allāh, I learnt over seventy Sūrah direct from the mouth of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. By Allāh, the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ came to know that I am one of those who know Allāh's Book best of all of them, yet I am not the best of them." Shaqīq added: I sat in his religious gathering and I did not hear anybody opposing him (in his speech).
5000 - حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، حَدَّثَنَا شَقِيقُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ: خَطَبَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ فَقَالَ: «وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ أَخَذْتُ مِنْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِضْعًا وَسَبْعِينَ سُورَةً، وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ عَلِمَ أَصْحَابُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنِّي مِنْ أَعْلَمِهِمْ بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ، وَمَا أَنَا بِخَيْرِهِمْ»، قَالَ شَقِيقٌ: فَجَلَسْتُ فِي الحِلَقِ أَسْمَعُ مَا يَقُولُونَ، فَمَا سَمِعْتُ رَادًّا يَقُولُ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ
