What is the reference for this narration? Can it be quoted?
Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:
“Anyone who recites the Quran let him ask [all his needs] by it from Allah alone. For soon such people will come who will recite the Qur’an and ask from people”
Answer:
Imam Tirmidhi (rahimahullah) has recorded this Hadith on the authority of Sayyiduna ‘Imran ibn Husayn (radiyallahu ‘anhuma).
(Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 2917)
This Hadith either means that a person should ask Allah Ta’ala to fulfil all his needs of this world as well as the Hereafter through the Quran or, When a person recites a verse regarding the mercy of Allah Ta’ala, he should seek Allah’s mercy and when he recites a verse regarding seeking protection he should seek protection.
(Refer: Tuhfatul Ahwadhi, Hadith: 2917)
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
