Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ خُمَيْرِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ قَرَأْتُ مِنْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَبْعِينَ سُورَةً وَإِنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ لَهُ ذُؤَابَةٌ فِي الْكُتَّابِ.
English Translation
Waki' told us, from Sufyan, from Abu Ishaq, from Khumayr ibn Malik, from Abdullah, who said: "I recited from the mouth of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, seventy surahs, while Zayd ibn Thabit still had his forelock, a young boy, in the writing-school."
