Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَنْبَأَنَا حُصَيْنٌ عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ يِسَافٍ عَنْ أَبِي حَيَّانَ الْأَشْجَعِيِّ عَنْ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ لِيَ اقْرَأْ عَلَيَّ مِنْ الْقُرْآنِ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ أَلَيْسَ مِنْكَ تَعَلَّمْتُهُ وَأَنْتَ تُقْرِئُنَا فَقَالَ إِن
ِّي أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فَقَالَ اقْرَأْ عَلَيَّ مِنْ الْقُرْآنِ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ أُنْزِلَ وَمِنْكَ تَعَلَّمْنَاهُ قَالَ بَلَى وَلَكِنِّي أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَسْمَعَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِي

English Translation
It was narrated from 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (رضي الله عنه) — via Hushaym, from Husayn, from Hilal ibn Yasaf, from Abi Hayyan al-Ashja'i — that Ibn Mas'ud said to someone: 'Recite to me from the Quran.' The narrator said: 'I said to him: Did I not learn it from you, and you teach us?' He said: 'I came to the Prophet ﷺ one day and he said: Recite to me from the Quran. I said: O Messenger of Allah, was it not revealed to you and did we not learn it from you? He said: Yes, but I love to hear it from someone else.'
