Mishkat al-Masabih #2089
The Excellent Qualities of the Qur'an
Al-Hasan reported in mursal form that the Prophet said, “If anyone recites a hundred verses in a night the Qur’ān will not argue against him that night; if anyone recites two hundred verses in a night he will be recorded as having spent a night standing in prayer; and if anyone recites five hundred to a thousand verses in a night, in the morning he will have a reward equivalent to a qintār*. He was asked what a qintar was and replied that it was twelve thousand .
*This is the measure to which many different values have been ascribed.
Dārimī transmitted it.
