English translation

4989. Narrated Zaid bin Thābit: Abū Bakr sent for me and said, "You used to write the Divine Revelations for Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. So you should search for (the Qur'an and collect) it." I started searching for the Qur'an till I found the last two Verses of Sūrat At-Tauba with Abī Khuzaima Al-Anṣārī and I could not find these Verses with anybody other than him. (They were): "Verily, there has come unto you a Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ) from amongst yourselves. (i.e., whom you know well.) It grieves him that you should receive any injury or difficulty..." (V.9:128,129)

4989 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، أَنَّ ابْنَ السَّبَّاقِ، قَالَ: إِنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ، قَالَ: أَرْسَلَ إِلَيَّ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: إِنَّكَ كُنْتَ تَكْتُبُ الوَحْيَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَاتَّبِعِ القُرْآنَ، " فَتَتَبَّعْتُ حَتَّى وَجَدْتُ آخِرَ سُورَةِ التَّوْبَةِ آيَتَيْنِ مَعَ أَبِي خُزَيْمَةَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، لَمْ أَجِدْهُمَا مَعَ أَحَدٍ غَيْرِهِ، {لَقَدْ جَاءَكُمْ رَسُولٌ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ عَزِيزٌ عَلَيْهِ مَا عَنِتُّمْ} [التوبة: 128] إِلَى آخِرِهِ "
