5013. Narrated Abū Sa'īd Al-Khudrī رضي الله عنه: A man heard another man reciting (Sūrat Al-Ikhlas): "Say (O Muhammad ﷺ): He is Allāh, (the) One" (V.112:1) repeatedly. The next morning he came to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and informed him about it as if he thought that it was not enough to recite. On that Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, this Sūrah is equal to one-third of the Qur'an!"

Arabic text

5013 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي صَعْصَعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الخُدْرِيِّ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَمِعَ رَجُلًا يَقْرَأُ: قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ يُرَدِّدُهَا، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ جَاءَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، وَكَأَنَّ الرَّجُلَ يَتَقَالُّهَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنَّهَا لَتَعْدِلُ ثُلُثَ القُرْآنِ»
