Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَجْلَحَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبْزَى عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَعْرِضَ الْقُرْآنَ عَلَيْكَ قَالَ وَسَمَّانِي لَكَ رَبِّي تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى قَالَ بِفَضْلِ اللَّهِ وَبِرَحْمَتِهِ فَبِذَلِكَ فَلْتَفْرَحُوا هَكَذَا قَرَأَهَا أُبَيٌّ.
English Translation
Yahya ibn Sa'id told us, from Ajlah, Abdullah ibn Abd al-Rahman ibn Abza told us, from his father, from Ubayy ibn Ka'b, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Allah, blessed and exalted, has commanded me to present the Qur'an to you." He said: "And has my Lord, blessed and exalted, named me to you?" He said: "By the bounty of Allah and by His mercy — so in that let them rejoice." Thus Ubayy recited it.
