English translation

1346. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh bin 'Amr said: "I memorized the Qur'ân and recited it all in one night. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'I am afraid that you may live a long life and that you may get bored. Recite it over the period of a month.' I said: 'Let me benefit from my strength and my youth.' He said: 'Recite it in ten days.' I said: 'Let me benefit from my strength and my youth.' He said: 'Recite it in seven days.' I said: 'Let me benefit from my strength and my youth,' but he refused (to alter it any further)."' (Da'if)

1346 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ خَلَّادٍ الْبَاهِلِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَكِيمِ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: جَمَعْتُ الْقُرْآنَ فَقَرَأْتُهُ كُلَّهُ فِي لَيْلَةٍ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنِّي أَخْشَى أَنْ يَطُولَ عَلَيْكَ الزَّمَانُ، وَأَنْ تَمَلَّ، فَاقْرَأْهُ فِي شَهْرٍ» . فَقُلْتُ: دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي، قَالَ: «فَاقْرَأْهُ فِي عَشْرَةٍ» قُلْتُ: دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي، قَالَ: «فَاقْرَأْهُ فِي سَبْعٍ» قُلْتُ: دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي فَأَبَى
