Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ أَبُو إِيَاسٍ أَخْبَرَنَا قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ مُغَفَّلٍ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ فَتْحِ مَكَّةَ وَهُوَ عَلَى نَاقَتِهِ قَرَأَ سُورَةَ الْفَتْحِ قَالَ فَقَرَأَ أَبُو إِيَاسٍ ثُمَّ رَجَّعَ وَقَالَ لَوْلَا أَنْ يَجْتَمِعَ النَّاسُ عَلَيَّ لَقَرَأْتُ بِهَذَا اللَّحْنِ.
