English translation

1013. It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbâs said: "The Prophet ﷺ used to raise his voice when reciting Qur'ân, and when the idolators heard his voice they would insult the Qur'ân and the one who had brought it. So the Prophet ﷺ began to lower his voice such that his Companions could not hear him. Then Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed: And offer your Salâh (prayer) neither aloud nor in a low voice, but follow a way between [1]" (Ṣāḥih)

Arabic text

1012 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنُ إِيَاسٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: " كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَرْفَعُ صَوْتَهُ بِالْقُرْآنِ، وَكَانَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ إِذَا سَمِعُوا صَوْتَهُ سَبُّوا الْقُرْآنَ وَمَنْ جَاءَ بِهِ، فَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَخْفِضُ صَوْتَهُ بِالْقُرْآنِ مَا كَانَ يَسْمَعُهُ أَصْحَابُهُ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {وَلَا تَجْهَرْ بِصَلَاتِكَ وَلَا تُخَافِتْ} [الإسراء: 110] بِهَا وَابْتَغِ بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ سَبِيلًا
