Mishkat al-Masabih #2068
The Excellent Qualities of the Qur'an
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَعْرِبُوا الْقُرْآنَ وَاتَّبِعُوا غَرَائِبَهُ وَغَرَائِبُهُ فَرَائِضُهُ وَحُدُودُهُ» . رَوَاهُ الْبَيْهَقِيّ فِي شعب الْإِيمَان
Abū Huraira reported God’s messenger as saying, “Expound the Qur’ān and take as guide its unusual expressions, they being the things made obligatory in it and the limits set in it.”
