حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ مَعْرُوفٍ حَدَّثَنَا بِهِ سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ کَانَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ يُحَدِّثُ وَيَقُولُ اسْمَعِي يَا رَبَّةَ الْحُجْرَةِ اسْمَعِي يَا رَبَّةَ الْحُجْرَةِ وَعَائِشَةُ تُصَلِّي فَلَمَّا قَضَتْ صَلَاتَهَا قَالَتْ لِعُرْوَةَ أَلَا تَسْمَعُ إِلَی هَذَا وَمَقَالَتِهِ آنِفًا إِنَّمَا کَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُحَدِّثُ حَدِيثًا لَوْ عَدَّهُ الْعَادُّ لَأَحْصَاهُ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 7509
It was reported that Abu Huraira used to say: Listen to me, inmate of the apartment; listen to me, inmate of the apartment, while 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) had been busy in observing prayer. As she finished prayer, she said to Urwa: Did you hear his words? And this is how Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) used to utter (so distinctly) that if one intended to count (the words uttered) he would be able to do so.
