“May Allah be pleased with a person who heard something from us and then transmitted it to others as he had heard it; for many a one to whom it is brought, retains it better than the one who heard it.”

Narrated by Abdullah ibn Mas’ud:

I heard Allah’s Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم saying: “May Allah be pleased with a person who heard something from us and then transmitted it to others as he had heard it; for many a one to whom it is brought, retains it better than the one who heard it.”
