27. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from ‘Abd Allah ibn Farqad and al-Mu’alla ibn Khunays, both of whom said the following: “We were with Abu Abdullah , and with us was Rabi'ah al-Ra'y, and we mentioned the virtue of the Quran. So Abu Abdillah said, 'If Ibn Mas'ood does not recite according to our recitation, then he is misguided.' Rabi'ah said, 'Misguided?' He replied, 'Yes, misguided.' Then Abu Abdillah said, 'As for us, we recite according to the recitation of Ubayy.'’”
