[1916] 282 - (284) It was narrated that 'Alqamah said: "We arrived in Ash-Shâm, and Abû Ad-Dardâ' came to us and said: 'Is there among you anyone who recites Qur'ân according to the recitation of 'Abdullâh?' I said: 'Yes, I do.' He said: 'How did you hear 'Abdullâh recite this verse - Wal-laili idha yaghshâ (By the night as it envelops)?"[1] He said: 'I heard him recite: Wal-laili idha yaghshâ wadh-dhakari wal-unthâ (By the night as it envelops and the male and female). He said: 'By Allâh, this is how I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ recite it, but these people want me to include the words wa ma khalaqa (and by Him Who created), but I do not want to do that.'"[2]

282 - (824) وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، وَاللَّفْظُ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، قَالَ: قَدِمْنَا الشَّامَ فَأَتَانَا أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ، فَقَالَ: «فِيكُمْ أَحَدٌ يَقْرَأُ عَلَى قِرَاءَةِ عَبْدِ اللهِ؟» فَقُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، أَنَا، قَالَ: " فَكَيْفَ سَمِعْتَ عَبْدَ اللهِ يَقْرَأُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى} [الليل: 1]؟ " قَالَ: سَمِعْتُهُ يَقْرَأُ: {وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى} [الليل: 1] وَالذَّكَرِ وَالْأُنْثَى، قَالَ: " وَأَنَا وَاللهِ هَكَذَا سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْرَؤُهَا، وَلَكِنْ هَؤُلَاءِ يُرِيدُونَ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ {وَمَا خَلَقَ} [الليل: 3] فَلَا أُتَابِعُهُمْ ".
