حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، قَالَ قِيلَ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِإِنَّ أُنَاسًا يَقْرَءُونَ هَذِهِ الآيَةَ { وَقَالَتْ هِيتَ لَكَ } فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَقْرَأُ كَمَا عُلِّمْتُ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ { وَقَالَتْ هَيْتَ لَكَ } .

Narrated Shariq
'Abd Allah (b. Mas'ud) was told that the people had read this verse: "She said: Now come, thou" (hita laka). He said: I read it as I have been taught ; it is dearer to me. It goes "wa qalat haita laka" (She said: Now come thou).
