Muwatta Malik #497
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.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ {قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ} تَعْدِلُ ثُلُثَ الْقُرْآنِ وَأَنَّ {تَبَارَكَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ} تُجَادِلُ عَنْ صَاحِبِهَا .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Humayd ibn
Abd ar-Rahman ibn Awf had told him that Surat al-Ikhlas (Sura 112) was
equal to a third of the Qur'an, and that Surat al-Mulk (Sura 67)
pleaded for its owner.
