Arabic text

1339 - حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الضَّرِيرُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْمَدَنِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مُجَمِّعٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ مِنْ أَحْسَنِ النَّاسِ صَوْتًا بِالْقُرْآنِ، الَّذِي إِذَا سَمِعْتُمُوهُ يَقْرَأُ، حَسِبْتُمُوهُ يَخْشَى اللَّهَ»

Commentary

A melodious voice is undoubtedly the adornment of recitation. The beauty of a person's recitation would, however, be increased manifold if it creates the impact on the listeners, that what the person is reciting has also touched the cords of his heart and filled it with the fear of Allāh.
