عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " أَيَعْجِزُ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ فِي لَيْلَةٍ ثُلُثَ الْقُرْآنِ " قَالُوا : وَكَيْفَ يَقْرَأْ ثُلُثَ الْقُرْآنِ؟ قَالَ : " قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ تَعْدِلُ ثُلُثَ الْقُرْآنِ " .
Translation
Abū ad-Dardāʾ reported that the Prophet ﷺ said: ‘Is any one of you unable to recite one-third of the Qur’an in a night?’ They said, ‘How can anyone recite one-third of the Qur’an?’ He replied, ‘“Say: He is Allah, the One” (Sūrat al-Ikhlāṣ) is equivalent to one-third of the Qur’an.’
