Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ خَيْثَمَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ أَنَّ عِمْرَانَ بْنَ حُصَيْنٍ قَالَ إِنَّهُ مَرَّ عَلَى قَاصٍّ قَرَأَ ثُمَّ سَأَلَ فَاسْتَرْجَعَ وَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنْ قَرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ فَلْيَسْأَلْ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِهِ فَإِنَّهُ سَيَجِيءُ قَوْمٌ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ يَسْأَلُونَ النَّاسَ بِهِ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Abdullah told us, Sufyan told us, from al-A'mash, from Khaythamah, from al-Hasan, that Imran ibn Husayn said: He passed by a storyteller who recited then began to beg, so he said "indeed to Allah we belong and to Him we return" and said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: 'Whoever recites the Qur'an, let him ask Allah, Mighty and Sublime, by means of it, for a people will come who recite the Qur'an and ask people by means of it.'"
