Ibn Majahحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ خَلاَّدٍ الْبَاهِلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَكِيمِ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ جَمَعْتُ الْقُرْآنَ فَقَرَأْتُهُ كُلَّهُ فِي لَيْلَةٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ إِنِّي أَخْشَى أَنْ يَطُولَ عَلَيْكَ الزَّمَانُ وَأَنْ تَمَلَّ فَاقْرَأْهُ فِي شَهْرٍ " . فَقُلْتُ دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي . قَالَ " فَاقْرَأْهُ فِي عَشْرَةٍ " . قُلْتُ دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي . قَالَ " فَاقْرَأْهُ فِي سَبْعٍ " . قُلْتُ دَعْنِي أَسْتَمْتِعْ مِنْ قُوَّتِي وَشَبَابِي . فَأَبَى ."
It was narrated that "Abdullah bin "Amr said:
"I memorized the Qur'an and recited it all in one night. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "I am afraid that you may live a long life and that you may get bored. Recite it over the period of a month.' I said: "Let me benefit from my strength in my youth.' He said: "Recite it in ten days.' I said: "Let me benefit from my strength and my youth.' He said: "Recite it in seven days.' I said: "Let me benefit from my strength and my youth,' but he refused (to alter it any further)."
