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