138. It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin Mas'ud that Abu Bakr and 'Umar gave him the glad tidings that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ had said: "Whoever would like to recite the Qur'ân as fresh as when it was revealed, let him recite it like Ibn 'Umm 'Abd.'" (Sahih)
138 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْخَلَّالُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ زِرٍّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ، وَعُمَرَ، بَشَّرَاهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ غَضًّا كَمَا أُنْزِلَ، فَلْيَقْرَأْهُ عَلَى قِرَاءَةِ ابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ»

The Hadith praises Abdullâh bin Mas'ud ﷺ for his manner of reciting the Qur'ân. The expression 'as fresh as when it was revealed' means that Abdullâh bin Mas'ud ﷺ has a precise technique of producing the various sounds and words of the Qur'ân without the slightest deviation from the established norm. Just as it is important to read the Qur'ân with understanding and follow its teachings, it is also essential and praiseworthy to recite it to the best of our ability. This shows the importance of learning the science of reciting the Qur'ân with the accuracy of pronunciation and intonation.
