2907. Abū 'Abdur-Raḥmān narrated from 'Uthmān bin 'Affān that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "The best of you is he who learns the Qur'an and teaches it." Abū 'Abdur-Raḥmān said: "So that is why I sit at this seat of mine." And he taught the Qur'an during the time of 'Uthmān until Al-Ḥajjāj bin Yūsuf came.

٢٩٠٧ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو دَاوُدَ ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا ‌شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي ‌عَلْقَمَةُ بْنُ مَرْثَدٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ‌سَعْدَ بْنَ عُبَيْدَةَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ ‌أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ ‌عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «خَيْرُكُمْ مَنْ تَعَلَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ وَعَلَّمَهُ». قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: فَذَاكَ الَّذِي أَقْعَدَنِي مَقْعَدِي هَذَا، وَعَلَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ فِي زَمَنِ عُثْمَانَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ الْحَجَّاجَ بْنَ يُوسُفَ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Commentary

The Qur'an is the Speech of Allāh, and Allāh's Speech has superiority over the speech of humans just as the Creator has superiority and excellence over His creation; therefore learning and teaching is better and more virtuous than all other good and virtuous deeds.
