Sayyiduna Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reciting (the Qur’an). I have not heard anything more beautiful than the recitation of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saying, "Last night at the place of Hajun, I recited (the Qur'an) before some jinn who were companions of one another."

(Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:) The statement of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), "I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saying, 'Last night I recited before the jinn,'" is a clear indication that Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) was not present that night. If he had been present that night, he would not have narrated this incident from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) as a report, that he recited before the jinn, but rather he would have informed that he himself was present at that time when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) recited before the jinn.

Alqamah narrates: I asked Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him),“Was any one of you with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on the night he met the jinn?”He replied,“None of us was with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). One night, we found the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) absent in Makkah, so we thought perhaps he had been deceived (martyred) or harmed. We spent that night in a state worse than any people have ever spent a night. When the time of sahar (pre-dawn) came (the narrator is unsure, perhaps these are the words), or when morning came, we were still in that state when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came from the direction of Hira mountain. We said, ‘O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)!’ Then we mentioned to him the state we had been in. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, ‘A representative of the jinn came to me, so I went with them and recited (the Qur’an) before them.’ (The narrator says) Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went with us and showed us the traces of those jinn and their fire.”

Amr bin Murrah narrates: I heard Abu Ubaidah saying: I heard Masruq saying, your father narrated this hadith to me: "On the night of meeting with the jinn, a tree tried to frighten the Prophet (peace be upon him) through the jinn."

Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from his father (Imam Muhammad al-Baqir, may Allah be pleased with him) the statement of Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse: "And take the station of Abraham as a place of prayer."

Imam Muhammad Baqir, may Allah have mercy on him, and Nafi’ narrate this: Amr bin Nafi’ reported this. He used to write the Noble Qur’an during the era of the wives of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. He says: Sayyidah Hafsah, may Allah be pleased with her, requested me to write the Noble Qur’an. She said: When you reach this verse of Surah Al-Baqarah, do not write it until you come to me; I will dictate it to you exactly as I memorized it from the words of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. The narrator says: When I reached that verse, I took the page on which I was writing the Qur’an and presented it to Sayyidah Hafsah, may Allah be pleased with her. She said: Write it like this:“Guard your prayers, and especially the middle prayer, which is the Asr prayer, and stand before Allah with humility.”

Sayyiduna Bara bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "When a believer testifies in the grave that there is no deity except Allah and recognizes Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), then this is what is meant by Allah Almighty's statement: 'Allah will keep the believers firm with the firm word in the life of this world and in the Hereafter.'"

Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "If you wish, you can attain reward for it." That is, the word in it was recited with lightness.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates this statement from Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him). The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "(Sayyiduna Musa, peace be upon him, said:) If I ask you about anything after this, then do not remain with me." In this, it is with the word of hamzah: "You have received an excuse from me."

Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite this: «فَهَلْ مِنْ مُدَّكِرٍ» .
