أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ بَکَّارِ بْنِ بِلَالٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سُمَيْعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ وَاقِدٍ عَنْ کَثِيرِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ أَنَّ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ حَدَّثَهُمْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِنَّ الَّذِي يَجْهَرُ بِالْقُرْآنِ کَالَّذِي يَجْهَرُ بِالصَّدَقَةِ وَالَّذِي يُسِرُّ بِالْقُرْآنِ کَالَّذِي يُسِرُّ بِالصَّدَقَةِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1668
It was narrated from Kathir bin Murrah that ‘Uqbah bin ‘Amir told them that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: ‘The one who recites the Qur’an loudly is like one who gives charity openly, and the one who recites the Qur’an silently is like one who gives charity in secret.” (Hasan)
