عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الخُدْرِيِّ رَضيَ اللهُ عنهُ: أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَمِعَ رَجُلًا يَقْرَأُ: {قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ} يُرَدِّدُهَا، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ جَاءَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، وَكَأَنَّ الرَّجُلَ يَتَقَالُّهَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنَّهَا لَتَعْدِلُ ثُلُثَ القُرْآنِ».
Kutoka kwa Abuu Saidi Al Khudri -radhi za Allah ziwe juu yake-: Ya kuwa mwanamume mmoja alimsikia mtu akisoma: "Sema: Yeye Mwenyezi Mungu ni wa pekee." Huku akiirudiarudia. Ilipofika asubuhi, alimjia Mtume wa Mwenyezi Mungu, rehema na amani ziwe juu yake, na akamueleza hilo. Na ni kana kwamba mwanamume huyo aliona jambo hilo ni jambo dogo. Basi Mtume wa Mwenyezi Mungu, rehema na amani ziwe juu yake akasema: “Ninaapa kwa yule ambaye nafsi yangu iko mkononi mwake, hakika, hiyo ni sawa na theluthi moja ya Qur'ani."
Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: A man heard another man reciting: {Say, “He is Allah, the One”} repeatedly. The next morning, he came to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and mentioned that to him, as if he thought it was not enough. Thereupon, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By the One in Whose Hand my soul is, it is equal to one-third of the Qur’an."
