Quran

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn
Shihab from Urwa ibn az-Zubayr that Abd ar-
Rahman ibn Abd al-Qari said that he had
heard Umar ibn al-Khattab say, "I heard
Hisham ibn Hakim ibn Hizam reciting Surat
al-Furqan (Sura 25) differently from me, and it
was the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, who had recited it
to me. I was about to rush up to him but I
granted him a respite until he had finished his
prayer. Then I grabbed him by his cloak and
took him to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, and said,
'Messenger of Allah, I heard this man reciting
Surat al-Furqan differently from the way you
recited it to me.' The Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Let
him go.' Then he said, 'Recite, Hisham,' and
Hisham recited as I had heard him recite. The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said, 'It was sent down like
that.' Then he said to me, 'Recite' and I recited
the sura, and he said, 'It was sent down like
that. This Qur'an was sent down in seven
(different) ways, so recite from it whatever is
easy for you .' "
