The statement of the Prophet ﷺ: "A man whom Allāh gave the knowledge of the Qur'ān and he reads it [in Ṣalāt (prayer)] during the hours of the night and the day; and another man says, 'If I have been given what this man has been given, I would do the same as he is doing.'" So Allāh's Messenger ﷺ showed that his reciting the Qur'ān in Ṣalāt is his action.

7528. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "Do not wish to be the like of except the like of two (persons): A man whom Allāh has given the (knowledge of the) Qur'ān and he recites it during the hours of the night and the hours of the day, in which case one may say, 'If I were given the same as this man has been given, I would do the same as he is doing.' The other is a man whom Allāh has given wealth and he spends it righteously (i.e., according to, what Allah has ordained, in a just and right way), in which case one may say, 'If I were given the same as he has been given, I would do the same as he is doing.'"

7528 - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لاَ تَحَاسُدَ إِلَّا فِي اثْنَتَيْنِ: رَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللَّهُ القُرْآنَ فَهُوَ يَتْلُوهُ آنَاءَ اللَّيْلِ وَآنَاءَ النَّهَارِ، فَهُوَ يَقُولُ: لَوْ أُوتِيتُ مِثْلَ مَا أُوتِيَ هَذَا لَفَعَلْتُ كَمَا يَفْعَلُ، وَرَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللَّهُ مَالًا فَهُوَ يُنْفِقُهُ فِي حَقِّهِ، فَيَقُولُ: لَوْ أُوتِيتُ مِثْلَ مَا أُوتِيَ عَمِلْتُ فِيهِ مِثْلَ مَا يَعْمَلُ "
