Ibn-e Mas'ood was one of the scribers
of revelation. He was constantly
scribing whatever was being revealed of the Holy Qur'an.
One day, the Prophet (pbuh&hf) asked
him: "Please read me some
Quran'."
Ibn-e Mas'ood opened his Qur'an and
read upto 4:41. The Prophet (pbuh&hf)
was listening to it attentively.
"How will that time be, when we
call a witness from each nation, and will
birng you as a witness unto this
nation" (4:41)
The eyes of the Prophet (pbuh&hf)
overfolwed with tears, and asked of
Ibn-e Mas'ood: "That is
enough." (1)
