Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي صَعْصَعَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ لِي جَارًا يَقُومُ اللَّيْلَ لَا يَقْرَأُ إِلَّا قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ كَأَنَّهُ يُقَلِّلُهَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنَّهَا لَتَعْدِلُ ثُلُثَ الْقُرْآنِ.
English Translation
Ishaq narrated to us, Malik narrated to us, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Abdullah ibn Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Sa'sa'ah al-Ansari, from his father, from Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, that a man said: "O Messenger of Allah, I have a neighbor who prays at night and recites nothing but 'Say: He is Allah, the One,' as if belittling it." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "By the One in whose hand is my soul, it is indeed equivalent to a third of the Qur'an."
