Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 0, Hadith 21

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that : The Prophet said “I do not want to hear of anyone of you who, upon hearing a Hadith narrated from me, says while reclining on his pillow: ‘Recite Qur’an (to verify this Hadith).’ (Here the Propher SAW said) Any excellent word that is said, it is I who have said it.”

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْفُضَيْلِ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمَقْبُرِيُّ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ أَنَّهُ قَالَ ‏
“‏ لاَ أَعْرِفَنَّ مَا يُحَدَّثُ أَحَدُكُمْ عَنِّي الْحَدِيثَ وَهُوَ مُتَّكِئٌ عَلَى أَرِيكَتِهِ فَيَقُولُ اقْرَأْ قُرْآنًا ‏.‏ مَا قِيلَ مِنْ قَوْلٍ حَسَنٍ فَأَنَا قُلْتُهُ ‏”‏ ‏.‏

The Sunan Ibn Majah is a monumental work in Islamic literature, being one of the six primary hadith collections accepted by Sunni Muslims. Its author, Ibn Majah, passed away in the year 886 CE after compiling thousands of prophetic traditions. The book’s content is remarkably wide-ranging, offering teachings on fundamental beliefs, detailed instructions for worship, ethical directives, and commentary on community affairs. A distinguishing feature of this collection is its critical reception. While it is held in high regard, it does not quite match the perceived authenticity level of the other five major collections due to the presence of some less reliable reports. Despite this, it maintains its vital role in scholarly research.
