Chapter 23: The instructions to the Prophet ﷺ to listen to the
Qur’aan when it is being revealed without making haste to recite it
Allaah تعاىل said:
‏﴿ّلَُُحت ‏َرِّك ‏ُُبِهُُِلِسَانَكَُُ‏ لِتَع جَلَُُبِهُُِ*ُإِنَُُّعَلَي نَاُعمَ‏ عَهُُوَق ر آنَهُُ*ُفَِذَاُقَرَأ نَاهُُفَاتَّبِع ‏ُُق ر آنَهُُ*ُث ‏َُُّإِنَُُّعَلَي نَاُبَيَانَهُ‏
{Move not your tongue concerning (the Qur’aan, O Muḥammad) to make haste
therewith. It is for Us to collect it and to give you (O Muḥammad) the ability to recite
it (the Qur’aan), And when We have recited it to you (O Muḥammad through Jibreel),
then follow you its (the Qur’aan’s) recital; then it is for Us (Allaah) to make it clear to
you.} [Surah al-Qiyaamah (75): 16-19]
And Allaah تعاىل also said:
‏﴿وَّلَ‏ ‏ُتَع جَل ‏ُبِال ق ر آنُِمُِنُقَب لِ‏ ‏ُأَنُي ق ضَىُإِلَي كَ‏ ‏ُوَح ي ه ‏ُُۖوَق لُرَّبِّ‏ ‏ُزِد ‏ِنِ‏ ‏ُعِل م ا﴾‏
{And be not in haste (O Muḥammad) with the Qur’aan before its revelation is
completed to you, and say: “My Lord! Increase me in knowledge.”} [Surah TaHa (20):
114]
This happened in the very beginning when the Revelation first began. Due to his
‏,عزُوجل eagerness to receive the Revelation which the Angel brought to him from Allaah
he used to join the Angel in its recitation (meaning that whenever Jibreel would say an
Aayah, the Prophet ﷺ would say it with him due to his eagerness to memorize it). So
تعاىل ordered him to silently listen on till the Revelation was completed. Allaah تعاىل Allaah
assured him that He would collect it in his chest, and He تعاىل would make it easy for him
تعاىل to recite and propagate it (in the same way that it was revealed to him). And Allaah
also said that He would clarify and explain it, and enable him to understand it (the way
He تعاىل intended). This is why He تعاىل said:
‏﴿وَّلَ‏ ‏ُتَع جَل ‏ُبِال ق ر آنُِمِنُقَب لِ‏ ‏ُأَنُي ق ضَىُإِلَي كَ‏ ‏ُوَح ي ه ‏ُُۖوَق لُرَّبِّ‏ ‏ُزِد ‏ِنِ‏ ‏ُعِل م ا﴾‏
