English translation
[1888] 261 - (812) It was narrated that Abû Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: [1] Al-Ikhlas 112. [2] Al-Ikhlas 112. 'Gather together, for I am going to recite one-third of the Qur'an to you.' So the people gathered, then the Prophet of Allāh ﷺ came out and recited: "Say: "He is Allāh, (the) One)"[1] then he went in. We said to one another: 'Perhaps there is news that has come to him from heaven and that is why he has gone in.' Then the Prophet of Allāh ﷺ came out and said: 'I told you that I was going to recite one-third of the Qur'an to you, and it is equivalent to one-third of the Qur'an."
