On rapporte quO’ ubayy ibn Ka’b , dont Allah est satisfait, a dit : 1- Le Messager d’Allah a dit : « Ô Abou al-Moundhir, sais-tu quel verset que tu connais du Livre d’Allah, est le plus éminent ? » 2- Je répondis : « Allah et Son Messager savent mieux ». 3- Il me dit de nouveau : « Ô Abou al-Moundhir, sais-tu quel verset que tu connais du Livre d’Allah est le plus éminent ? ». 4- J’ai dit : « Allah ! Point de divinité à part Lui, le Vivant, Celui qui subsiste par lui-même (Al- Qayyoum) ». 5- Il frappa alors ma poitrine 6- et dit : « Par Allah, que la science te profite, ô Abou al-Moundhir ! ».

Dari Ubay bin Ka'ab  beliau berkata, 1. “Rasulullah ﷺ bersabda, ‘Wahai Abu Al-Munæir! Tahukah engkau, di antara ayat-ayat Al-Qur`an yang engkau hafal, ayat manakah yang paling utama?’ 2. Aku menjawab, ‘Allah dan Rasul-Nya yang lebih mengetahui.’ 3. Beliau bertanya lagi, ‘Wahai Abu Al-Munæir, tahukah engkau, di antara ayat-ayat Al-Qur`an yang engkau hafal, ayat manakah yang paling utama?’ 4. Aku menjawab, ‘Alláhu Lá Iláha Illá Huwal Hayyul Qayyúm.’ 5. Lalu beliau menepuk dadaku seraya bersabda, ‘Demi Allah, semoga engkau berbahagia dengan ilmu, wahai Abu Al-Munæir.’” 

Kutoka kwa Ubay bin Ka’b radhi za mwenyzi mungu ziwe juu yake amesema: 1- Alisema Mtume (Rehme na Amani zimfikie) :“Ewe Baba  Mundhir, je, unajua ni Aya gani katika Kitabu cha Mwenyezi Mungu iliyo kubwa kwako?” 2- Nikasema: Mwenyezi Mungu na Mtume wake wanajua zaidi. 3- Akasema: “ewe Baba Mundhir, unajua ni aya gani katika kitabu cha Mwenyezi Mungu iliyo kubwa kwako?” 4- Nikasema: (Mwenyezi Mungu, hapana Mola apasae kuabudiwa kwa haki ispokuwa yeye, Aliye Hai, msimamizi wa kila jambo) (na hii ni aya ya 225 sura ya pili yaan ayutul kursiyu). 5-(Mtume) Alipiga kifua changu, 6- Na akasema: “Wallahi elimu itulizane kwako, ewe Baba Mundhir.”
