Riyad as-Salihin 1389

Ibn Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported

I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying, "May Allah freshen the affairs of a person who hears something from us and communicates it to others exactly as he has heard it (i.e., both the meaning and the words), for it may be that the recipient of knowledge understands it better than the one who has heard it."

[At-Tirmidhi].

- وعن ابن مسعود رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول‏:‏ ‏"‏نضر الله امرءًا سمع منا شيئًا فبلغه كما سمعه فرب مبلغ أوعي من سامع‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه الترمذي وقال‏:‏ حديث حسن صحيح‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
