'A'isha reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) recited (these verses of the Qur'an): "He it is Who revealed to thee (Muhammad) the Book (the Qur'an) wherein there are clear revelations-these are the substance of the Book and others are allegorical (verses). And as for those who have a yearning for error they go after the allegorical verses seeking (to cause) dissension, by seeking to explain them. And none knows their implications but Allah, and those who are sound in knowledge say: We affirm our faith in everything which is from our Lord. It is only the persons of understanding who really heed" (iii. 6). 'A'isha (further) reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said (in connection with these verses): When you see such verses, avoid them, for it is they whom Allah has pointed out (in the mentioned verses).

'Abdullah bin 'Umar reported: I went to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) in the morning and he heard the voice of two persons who had an argumentation with each other about a verse. Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came to us (and) the (signs) of anger could be seen on his face. He said: Verily, the (peoples) before you were ruined because of their disputation in the Book.

Jundub bin 'Abdullah al-Bajali reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: Recite the Qur'an as long as your hearts agree to do so, and when you feel variance between them (between your hearts and tongues), then get up (and leave its recital for the time being).

Jundub (i. e. Ibn 'Abdullah) reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: Recite the Qur'an as long as your hearts agree to do so and when you find variance between them, then stand up.

Abu Imran reported that Jundub told us as we were young boys living in Kilfa, that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) had said: Recite the Qur'an. The rest of the hadith is the same.
