7524. Narrated Mūsā bin Abu 'Aīshah: Sa'īd bin Jubair reported from Ibn 'Abbās رضي الله عنهما (regarding the explanation of the Verse: “Do not move your tongue concerning (the Qur'an O Muḥammad ﷺ) to make haste therewith. He said, “The Prophet ﷺ used to undergo great difficulty in receiving the Divine Revelation and used to move his lips.” Ibn 'Abbās said (to Sa'īd), “I move them (my lips) as Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used to move his lips.” And Sa'īd said (to me), “I move my lips as I saw Ibn 'Abbās moving his lips,” and then he moved his lips. So Allāh تعالى revealed: “Move not your tongue concerning (the Qur'an, O Muḥammad ﷺ) to make haste therewith. It is for Us to collect it and give you (O Muḥammad ﷺ) the ability to recite it. And when We have recited it to you [O Muḥammad ﷺ through Jibril (Gabriel)], then follow you its (the Qur'an) recital.” (V.75:16-18) This means, “You should listen to it and keep quiet and then it is upon Us to make you recite it.” The narrator added, “So Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used to listen whenever Jibril (Gabriel) came to him, and when Jibril left, the Prophet ﷺ would recite the Qur'an as Jibril had recited it to him.”

7524 - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ أَبِي عَائِشَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى: {لاَ تُحَرِّكْ بِهِ لِسَانَكَ} [القيامة: 16]، قَالَ: «كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُعَالِجُ مِنَ التَّنْزِيلِ شِدَّةً، وَكَانَ يُحَرِّكُ شَفَتَيْهِ» - فَقَالَ لِي ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: فَأَنَا أُحَرِّكُهُمَا لَكَ كَمَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُحَرِّكُهُمَا، فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ: أَنَا أُحَرِّكُهُمَا كَمَا كَانَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يُحَرِّكُهُمَا، فَحَرَّكَ شَفَتَيْهِ - فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {لاَ تُحَرِّكْ بِهِ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهِ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُ وَقُرْآنَهُ} [القيامة: 17]، قَالَ: «جَمْعُهُ فِي صَدْرِكَ ثُمَّ تَقْرَؤُهُ»، {فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَاهُ فَاتَّبِعْ قُرْآنَهُ} [القيامة: 18] قَالَ: " فَاسْتَمِعْ لَهُ وَأَنْصِتْ، ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا أَنْ تَقْرَأَهُ، قَالَ: فَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَتَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ اسْتَمَعَ، فَإِذَا انْطَلَقَ جِبْرِيلُ قَرَأَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَمَا أَقْرَأَهُ "
