Hadith 22:165

Ubaydullah narrated to us, he said: Isra'il informed us, from Abu Ishaq, from Abu Ubaydah, from his father, who said: He used to recite the Quran, and he would pass by an ayah and say to a man, "Take it, for by Allah, it is better than anything that is upon the earth." He said: The man would think that he only meant that specific ayah, until he would do the same with all the people.

حدثنا عبيد الله قال أخبرنا إسرائيل عن أبي إسحاق عن أبي عبيدة عن أبيه قال كان يقرأ القرآن فيمر بالآية فيقول للرجل خذها فوالله لهي خير مما على الأرض من شيء قال فيرى الرجل إنما يعني تلك الآية حتى يفعله بالقوم كلهم
