English translation

1978. Narrated Mujāhid from 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr رضي الله عنهما: The Prophet ﷺ said (to 'Abdullāh), "Observe Saum (fast) three days a month." 'Abdullāh said, (to the Prophet ﷺ), "I am able to observe Saum (fast) more than that." They kept on arguing on this matter till the Prophet ﷺ said, "Observe Saum (fast) on alternate days, and recite the whole Qur'ān once a month." 'Abdullāh said, "I can recite more (in a month)," and the argument went on till the Prophet ﷺ said, "Recite the whole Qur'ān once in three days." (i.e., you must not recite the whole Qur'ān in less than three days).

1978 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ مُجَاهِدًا، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «صُمْ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ»، قَالَ: أُطِيقُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، فَمَا زَالَ حَتَّى قَالَ: «صُمْ يَوْمًا وَأَفْطِرْ يَوْمًا» فَقَالَ: «اقْرَإِ القُرْآنَ فِي كُلِّ شَهْرٍ»، قَالَ: إِنِّي أُطِيقُ أَكْثَرَ فَمَا زَالَ، حَتَّى قَالَ: «فِي ثَلاَثٍ»
